This is going to be a busy week for me, so I finally prepped MOST of my meals… It’s hard for me to prep all of them because I don’t have good tupperware so my food isn’t as fresh after a few days. I really need to make the investment and just go ahead and buy the the good tupperware!
Part of what a REAL meal prep should look like. This is only for half of my week.
SORRY FOR THE UGLY PICTURE!!! Terrible lighting in my kitchen…

Cantaloupe with Greek yogurt, blackberries, and crushed almonds
Cooking Instructions:
1. Cut cantaloupe in half
2. Scoop out the seeds
3. Fill with yogurt
4. Add crushed almonds
5. Add blackberries (or any berries)
This was pretty hard to eat actually. The juice kept squirting everywhere! I guess that’s what I get for taking the lazy way and digging the fruit out with a spoon. Maybe next time I’ll just cut the cantaloupe up and add the other stuff on top…
I won this awesome Life Factory water bottle from a raffle at the Earth Day Carnival at my school! Woo!
HAPPY EARTH DAY!!!!! But remember, every day is Earth Day.
