As a Registered Dietitian, I’m constantly asked what changes people can make for a healthier lifestyle. I’m a huge advocate of weekend food prep. I firmly believe that setting myself up for success on the weekend plays a major part of my ability to eat healthy during the week. I’ve written several posts to share my tips and strategies for food prep and healthy weekday eating:

Each weekend, I make it a goal to head to the kitchen and prepare some food to make the upcoming week a little easier. Every Sunday, I showcase what I prepared the previous weekend, plus several reader submissions in my Sunday Food Prep Inspiration series!
