Hello friends! Monday happy! How does the week look for you? LIV has a very low week at school with about half a few days, so I look forward to falling into some things around the house. We have emptied our storage unit and crossed everything was a picnic, let me tell you.

Something that has been saved my life since the start of school: preparatory meal !!

Why do I love the preparation meal?

When it comes to eating healthy meals constantly, preparing meals is one of my favorite strategies. Provides time, money and daily pressure to see what to eat. It makes this difference in the nutrient food ready to go. It is easier to stick to your healthy goals when you open the refrigerator and healthy food waiting for you.

Since P both gluten -free and I am on the home, I was doing a lot of preparatory meals free of gluten. Initially, you can feel magic, especially if you are new to navigate gluten intolerance. The good news is that it should not be complicated. In fact, there are a lot of gluten -free foods naturally that are ideal for preparatory recipes for meals.

Today, I wanted to chat a little about the preparation of gluten -free meals: What does that mean, why it is worth it (!), Tips for success, and free and easy recipes that you can try this week. (For more meals, check out this dinner list that our family loved and this is the list of dinner ideas.)

What is preparatory meal free of gluten

Preparing gluten -free meal simply means preparing meals early that does not contain gluten: the protein found in wheat, barley and rye. This is especially useful for anyone who suffers from digestive disorders or gluten intolerance, but many people choose gluten -free eating because it can help digestion, energy or wellness in general.

The beauty of the preparation of gluten -free meals is that it uses free options that you really love: meager vegetables, beans, and grains such as rice, quinoa and healthy fats such as olive oil. With the correct plan, you can enjoy delicious and sick meals without pressing the cooking at the last minute.

What are the benefits of meals that prepare for gluten -free meals

Save time

By cooking in a big boost, you can prepare lunch, dinner and/or snacks throughout the week. Do not defend the kitchen every night!

Provides money

Planning and preparing in advance help you avoid eating excessive abroad. If you need more budget advice, check my message on cheap ideas for preparatory meal.

Supports healthy eating

When healthy food is ready to seize, you are less likely to reach packed snacks or fast food. Prepping meal keeps healthy meals in front and medium. For example, if you are hungry and open the refrigerator and see a group of raw chicken, or see a bag of chips, guess any one will capture it? Chips. They are ready and wait for me.

Reduces stress

The presence of a plan means less “what is for dinner?” Moments. It also takes away the mental pregnancy of daily planning for meals. I know that my friends in Mama can link, but when you have everything for everyone in the family in your mind, eating meals from the image can liberate your mental energy.

Customized

Gluten -free does not mean boring! You can build a gluten -free meal plan that suits taste buds, lifestyle, and nutrition goals with endless free preparatory options.

Divide meals into one service container so that the free preparatory for the meal is ready. These are my favorite glass meal containers!

Change the sauces, spices or the top layer so that you do not feel a gluten -free meal. I will make some bandages or sauces every week to raise our meals. We love chickpeas, chimmyichurri, peanut sauce (with GF tamari), salsa, homemade salad bands.
