A common myth of meal prepping is that it is expensive. But this isn’t true! With a little bit of planning, you can easily find recipes that won’t break the bank. Take this one for example! This Chicken Enchilada Skillet recipe will cost you $2.50 per meal or less. To be honest you probably have some of the ingredients in your kitchen already, which would bring down the cost a lot. For example, this meal prep cost me $1.50 per meal, and I made 5 meals! Now onto the recipe… Start out by adding the chicken broth and chili powder to a large skillet withRead More →

Plus you can have a complete meal on the table in under 30 minute (yes, that include prep time too!). Let’s get right into it… Start out by washing and peeling your sweet potato. Then chop it into small chunks. The size of these chunks are pretty important, if they are too large, then they will take longer to cook and you run the risk of drying out the meal.
