@eatcleansandiego is dominating meal prep with this impressive spread of healthy lunches, dinners, and snacks. We love the colorful fruits and veggies and the array of choices throughout the week. This volume of meal prep for one person would take serious effort, but if you team up with a clean-eating friend and divide the work, you could eat like a king at every meal!

This fresh take on egg cups from @nourish_nutrition looks delicious. She lined muffin tins with nitrate-free ham, added tomatoes, asparagus, and scallions, then cracked an egg into each cup. Bake at 350° until eggs are set (about 15 minutes).

Having a variety of dinners keeps meal preppers from getting bored. @welovecleanfood made slow-cooked beef with brown rice and broccoli, chicken breasts with a trio of roasted vegetables, and turkey meatballs stuffed with mozzarella cheese (yum!) served on whole grain pasta. For a snack she has plain Greek yogurt with raspberries and a portion-controlled serving of homemade granola.

This portable salad from @meowmeix is almost too pretty to eat. It has balsamic dressing at the bottom of the jar, zucchini noodles, bell peppers, tomatoes, chicken and salad greens. To use your favorite ingredients in a Mason jar salad, put the heaviest ingredients at the bottom, ones that won’t get soggy sitting in the dressing.

@hollirob has a perfect solution for half eaten bananas. She freezes them in bags with other frozen fruits so she’s ready to make a smoothie any time. We told you how smoothie bags can make your mornings a cinch here.

Sandy Sin was encouraged by her Challenge Group to share this 21 Day Fix meal prep with us, and we love it! She told us, “This is my first time meal prepping of any sort. I’m overwhelmed with excitement, nerves, and just pure joy to start kick this new healthy lifestyle.” It looks like she’s doing a brilliant job! Keep up the good work, Sandy. For breakfast she’s having Shakeology with banana, almond butter, and lots of ice (she likes it slushy!). Her snacks are whole wheat English muffins with avocado and hard-boiled eggs, and fresh fruit with sunflower seeds. For lunches and dinners she has either grilled chicken with boiled sweet potato and veggies, or zucchini noodles with ground turkey and marinara sauce.
