What I ate this week

This is my new favorite meal prep. I just throw together black beans, corn, red, yellow, orange and green bell peppers with onion and garlic and tomatoes in a pan with some veggie “ground beef” and top it off with some cheese. I eat this during the week. I’ll have it with chips or on a tostada or my favorite with some rice it’s simple it’s delicious quick and easy #mealideas🥦 #mealsfortheweek #mealprep #mealprepideas #texmexrecipe

... Read moreIncorporating meal prep into your weekly routine can simplify healthy eating and save you time during busy weekdays. This easy recipe combines the goodness of black beans and colorful bell peppers, which are not only vibrant but packed with nutrition. Black beans are an excellent source of protein and fiber, promoting digestive health and keeping you full longer. Pairing them with bell peppers adds a rich array of vitamins—particularly Vitamin C, which supports the immune system. To add more flavor, consider experimenting with herbs and spices such as cumin, chili powder, or fresh cilantro. You can easily customize this meal based on what’s in your fridge, making it a versatile choice for meal prep. Additionally, utilizing veggie ground beef as a meat substitute can cater to plant-based diets while still providing a satisfying texture. Storing your meal prep in airtight containers can keep your meals fresh throughout the week. This method not only reduces food waste but also allows you to have nutritious meals ready at your fingertips. Whether enjoyed as a standalone bowl or as a filling for tacos, this dish is sure to become a staple in your weekly meal rotation.
