10-Minute Dinner Guide + A Quick & Healthy Weeknight Recipe

Not to mention, I am probably already asking them to make time for a workout so adding a two-hour dinner to the schedule is off the table. Don’t get me wrong, that doesn’t mean I support takeout twenty four seven I simply suggest efficiency. My easy weeknight meal tips support them to meet their wellness and movement goals without the fuss. 

Protein Prep: 

The best way to ensure you are consistently eating clean homemade meals is to have a couple semi-homemade and crockpot meals in your recipe arsenal. Since proteins generally take the longest to cook, you can cut your prep time in half by supplementing a few of your weeknight meals with a grocery store prepared rotisserie chicken or a few salmon filets. Another great suggestion is to make use of your slow cooker, throw in a roast or meatballs and come home to a fully prepared protein. 

Produce Prep: 

There is no need to roast pounds of vegetables and chicken on a Sunday afternoon. All you need to do to make sure your weeknights are an easy affair is to prep your produce; chop your broccoli, wash and spin you salad greens, rice your cauliflower, wash and chop veggies for dipping like cucumber, carrots and celery and chop an onion. 

Clean Condiments: 

Dips, dressing and sauces can take time so stock the fridge or add that task to your light Sunday prep list. Make a dressing for the week or snag a few BWBK approved brands like Primal Kitchen or Tessemae's. Stock the fridge with high heat oils for a quick stir-fry like ghee or coconut oil and keep those sauce favorites around to dress up a simple meal like coconut aminos, sriracha and an avocado oil mayonnaise for a quick aioli. 

It really can be that simple! Here is one of my favorite ten minute meals:
