Sometimes neither, sometimes both. On occasion I prep smoothie ingredients, but we usually do it every night before we go to bed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-for-weekly-food-prep#post-1864658 Tue, 16 Sep 2014 13:37:06 +0000 fairy 1864658@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It varies, usually lots of chopping, grating, and mincing fruits/veggies, blanching or roasting veggies, sometimes making rice or pasta ahead to heat up for meals later in the week. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-for-weekly-food-prep#post-1864646 Tue, 16 Sep 2014 13:31:40 +0000 blackbird 1864646@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Boil eggs for E. Sometimes I make pancakes or waffles in batches and freeze. I'll also make broccoli bites and stick in the freezer. Sometimes i make myself an egg bake--lately it's just been scrambled eggs and cheese. I think i'll pre-make some breakfast burritos for next week. I make rice or quinoa or pasta ahead of time. I'll cook and season any ground meat--ground turkey for tacos, or ground sirloin. If we're having any sort of casserole, i will make it and cover it and stick it in the fridge. i also make any breads for the week (i made E pumpkin bread Sunday). I put any meats in bags with their respective marinades. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-for-weekly-food-prep#post-1864639 Tue, 16 Sep 2014 13:28:40 +0000 mrs. wagon 1864639@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>These days I do the following on the weekend to prep for the week. Sometimes I do it on Saturday during the day, but sometimes it gets done on Sunday night last minute! And a few items don't get done until the day I need them... so I need to make them part of the routine!</p> <p>- boil half a dozen eggs, peel the shells off<br /> - wash grapes<br /> - wash cherry tomatoes<br /> - peel garlic<br /> - make rice (in the rice cooker) </p>
