"We’ve all been there—you end up working late and get home ravenous. By that time, ordering takeout is basically a foregone conclusion… unless you’ve got a fridge full of healthy meals you prepped ahead of time. Meal prepping is one of the easiest ways to stick to your healthy-eating goals throughout the week—and save money in the process. When you’re stocked with ready-to-eat, nutritious meals, you can enjoy the same instant gratification of takeout without the steep delivery charges or temptation to order the unhealthiest thing on the menu. And when we’re talking about healthy meal prep ideas, that doesn’t just include salads.
This Baggy Dad style from Levi’s is a tried-and-true favorite our team swears by, made famous by an effortlessly cool fit and PJ-like comfort.
We know that eating the same meal-prepped salad every day can be torturous, and there are so many delicious alternatives out there that are equally nutritious. These healthy meal prep ideas are the perfect solution if you’re trying to eat clean but aren’t into salads.
