Die 5 besten meal prep Rezepte mit Haferflocken

Meal prepping is absolutely trendy and is becoming increasingly popular. By planning and cooking meals in advance, you save time, money and stress in your everyday life. Nice side effect: This makes it much easier to build and maintain good habits.

Recipes for meal prepping

Creativity is required when it comes to meal prepping - nobody wants to eat nothing but bean stew for a week. What is particularly important when choosing recipes is the shelf life and how it needs to be stored. For example, you can easily pre-cook soups in larger quantities and freeze them in portions. Unfortunately, a fresh salad won't forgive you if you put it in the freezer and even in the fridge it will simply hang its head after a certain amount of time. You can prepare delicious recipes with oatmeal for your breakfast and nutritious meal prep snacks. The oat flakes keep you full for a long time and provide you with valuable nutrients that give you energy for your day.

These delicious meal prep recipes make pre-cooking even more fun.
