To save time, money and make it easier to eat healthy all week long, consider meal prepping.  \nWhat is meal prepping?  \nMeal prepping involves planning and preparing meals in advance.1 Choose which method works best for you. You could try:  \nBatch cooking  \nThink chili, soup, egg muffins, burritos or steel-cut oats—items that can be reheated when it’s time to eat.  \nPreparing all at once  \nGet parts of meals started ahead of time. Wash and chop vegetables. Cook whole grains like quinoa or farro. Roast a chicken. Make a dressing or sauce. Wash fruit in advance. And multitask: while the chicken is in the oven, roast vegetables on a sheet pan on a lower oven rack.  \nBuying pre-prepped ingredients  \nSave on time by using sliced and diced vegetables, bagged salads, rotisserie chicken, frozen steamable veggies and ready-to-heat, pre-cooked grains.  \nPlanning your meal prep  \nMeal prepping starts with a game plan. Think about what you’d like to eatforthe week and plan accordingly. Determine how much you want to prep. Which meals do you want to streamline? Do you want to make assembling a healthy dinner go faster? Perhaps you want to prepare lunches that you can grab and go. Start slow so you don’t get overwhelmed. Choose one eating occasion (like a snack or lunch) to start with. Or prep for just a few days rather than the whole week.  \nDecide what foods you want to make. What would you like to eat this week? Find your favorite recipes or research new ones.  \nConsider what ingredients you have versus need. To save money, think about what you have in the pantry, likevinegars, soy sauce and spices. Focus on buying just the fresh ingredients, like vegetables and proteins.  \nSchedule your meal prep time. Look at your calendar to plan when to shopfor food and prep meals.  \nPutting it all together  \nDon’t be overwhelmed by the many ways to meal prep. See what works for you—that’s key. Excitement and inspiration will follow. A place to start: Try this excellent recipe for your lunch prep.  \nIngredients  \n• 1 cup chopped chicken  \n• 2 cups of chopped crunchy vegetables (carrots, celery, onion, mini peppers, cucumbers, radishes, etc. )  \n• ¼ cup edamame  \n• ¼ cup chopped pickled, preserved or fermented vegetables (pickles, kim chi, pepperoncini, olives, etc. )  \n• 2 Tbsp plain low-fat Greek yogurt, light dressing or light mayonnaise  \nNutrition  \nServing size: ¼ cup  \nChopped chicken salad  \nMakes: 2 servings | Prep: 10 mins  \nRotisserie chicken is a great way to stretch your dollar. After first using it for dinner, the leftover chicken can be repurposed in manyways, including in this chopped chicken salad.  \nPreparation  \nChop chicken and crunchy vegetables. If you have a manual vegetable chopper, use it (do not use an electric food processor—it will chop too fine). Chop pickled vegetables. Mix all chopped ingredients and edamame in a medium-sized bowl. Dress the salad and season with salt and pepper to taste. You can experiment with flavor by adding fresh or dried herbs (tarragon, parsley, dill) or spices (celery seed, coriander, cayenne pepper, curry powder) . Serve with lettuce cups or crackers.  \nCalories: 161 | total fat: 4 g | saturated fat: 1 g | sodium: 283 mg | cholesterol: 62 mg total carbs: 5 g | fiber: 3 g | sugars: 2 g | protein: 26 g | potassium: 554 mg  \nLearn how Teladoc Health can help support you on your wellness journey.  \nTo sign up or learn more, [goto TeladocHealth.com/smile/WMU](goto TeladocHealth.com/smile/WMU).  \n1[https://nutritionsource.hsph.harvard.edu/meal-prep/](https://nutritionsource.hsph.harvard.edu/meal-prep/)  \nLas comunicaciones del programa Teladoc Health están disponibles en español.
