Busy Bee Meal Prep Sunday (17.02.2019)

Image
It's been two weeks since the last meal prep was posted so let's dive right in. The reason I didn't post last week is simple. I made the same food as the week before - and a little bit less of it all because we were still eating those (frozen) boxes from the week before then. All right. Here is this week's shopping bounty: As you can see it's a lot of the 'regular' stuff (staples) but with some variety (a lot of mushrooms and a bit of cheese). The breakdown is as follows: Vegetables: carrots, cabbage, parsley, sweet potato, broccoli, tomatoes, potatoes, onions, red onions, spinach, paprika, cucumber, zucchini, various mushrooms Proteins: minced meat (500g used) and two pork schnitzel as well as six pieces of cod (four frozen and two fresh). Also: brown lentils (about 150g). Carbohydrates (non-vegetables): a 75g bag of quinoa and about 200g of brown rice (not pictured). Three handfuls of whole wheat penne. About 200g of whole wheat flour to ma...

And here is the food these ingredients made: The foods from top left to - wait hold on this doesn't make sense - let's just start with the soup pot. The soup is a chicken pot pie soup with lots of veggies (4 portions). To the r...

Busy Bee Health Essentials

The 4 Horsement (Most Essential Ingredients) of Good Health In order to be healthy or lose weight there are really only two things you need to do regularly. Two things - and you still get to eat sweets (although you should cut it down if you eat them every day). These two most-important things are: Nutrition and Exercise You probably didn't want to read the last part, but let me tell you, there is no shortcut. In short (ha.ha.), if you don't exercise, you will be more prone to diseases (especially everything to do with the heart) in later life. And by later life I don't mean when you're 90 and consider yourself to be half-dead anyway, but this starts in your late 20s already.

Nutrition is equally important. If you don't nutrite enough, you'll get g...
