Fresh Food Preparation for a Hectic Week

This post will not be about cooking. On my work days, which is usually only 4 days a week, I want something quick, fresh, non-heavy, and easy. So I buy fresh fruit and veggies. I wash them and cut them up. Then I put them in storage containers in the fridge. They usually consist of veggies I can throw a salad together with and snackable fruit.


Here's what I opted for this week:

First I cut up apple (the trick to keeping them from turning brown is squirting a little lemon juice on them. FRESH LEMON JUICE)

Second layer is cucumber.
Third layer is tomatoe.


In a seperate container I cut up broccoli and shred carrots.

Next I mix cut greens together..I have a spinach mix and another mix called Spring Greens. They are packaged already. I just wash them and mix together. This is in a seperate container.

Next I cut the tops off and washed fresh strawberries. Put them in plastic containers that are easily portable.

This is what they all look like before going in the fridge. Now it only takes me about 10 minutes to get my lunch together.

Hope this helps some of you on saving money and making better lunch choices.
