This time around I have some new things to prep on the weekend to make your life easier during your busy weeks.

Cookies + Muffins

Everyone likes a sweet treat during the day, right? I prep cookies or muffins in advance to satisfy our sweet tooth while at the same time nourishing our bodies.

If you have kids, mini muffins are an instant hit. Batch bake some chocolate chip mini muffins or turn these Walnut Cinnamon Muffins into a mini form for school lunches. Replace the walnuts with sunflower or pumpkin seeds for a nut-free alternative.

If you’re looking for a cookie to much on at work, try batching up these Coconut Almond Cookies. They’re a Koukla Delights dupe and just as delicious. You can also break them up to have over your Greek yogurt. Yum.

Whatever your favourite muffin or cookie, make up a big batch on the weekend so you have them available for a quick snack during the week. Keep them in the freezer for longer-term storage.

Egg Muffins

Speaking of muffins, I’ve been making egg muffins for my family and they’re a hit! I’m sure it’s because I add bacon to the mix. They’re easy to make, and the perfect grab-and-go snack, breakfast, or lunch option to have for the week.

Yogurt Jars

Whether you eat them for a light breakfast or an afternoon snack, yogurt parfait jars are a quick and easy recipe to prep. They last about three days in the fridge so you can have an easy snack option for your busiest days. I like to use Greek or goat yogurt for a hit of protein, frozen blueberries, walnuts, hemp seeds, and a touch of maple syrup.

Tip: yogurt parfait jars are also a great way to use up any bits of fruit you have left over in the fridge or freezer.
