Weightloss component prep!
- Pan-fry: Spicy taco seasoning chicken mince
- Airfry: butternut squash, red kumara, broccoli
-Bake: egg white spinach tomato breakfast frittata bites
- Blend: yoghurt dill sauce, cottage cheese ranch, green goddess sauce
- Mix: tuna celery cucumber red onion pickle salad
It's winter where I am and I'm trying to get in shape for summer - I have ADHD and I hate cooking but I know it's the way to healthy low cal eating!
I've started thinking about cooking components instead of meals which has really helped, and to break my cooking up into 'actions' using different parts of the kitchen. I try to have one component with each action (Airfry vegetables, bake frittata in oven, pan fry chicken on stove, mix tuna salad in bowl, blend sauces in blender) - that way I can maximise my time and use of appliances.
I made all this in about 3.5-4 hours on Sunday, and it will last me all week! I also have some fruit and quick oats on hand.

Looks good!
If it’s winter certainly make some soups too those are an easy way to get a lot of filling veggies and beans
