BATCH MEAL PREP GUIDE - June 6, 2025

Freezer Bacon Smash Burgers | Broccoli & Chicken Pasta Bake | Leek Pesto Chicken Quesadillas with Homemade Pizza Sauce | Balsamic Pesto Ground Beef & Veggie Bowls | Monster Cookie Protein Balls

Here’s your meal prep guide for the week!

Each week I share a meal prep guide with my paid community members to help you cook seasonal, nutrient dense meals in an efficient, low effort way ;)

These recipes are always posted before the weekend so you have time to review the recipes and shopping list, collect the ingredients, and set some time aside for your batch prep session. Down below, you’ll see the menu for the week (with links to the recipes and grocery list), as well as a timeline on how to prep for this week.

keep in mind: I use traditional ways of cooking to receive the most nutrients possible, so some ingredients require them to be prepped hours in advance, even overnight before cooking.

Freezer Cheeseburgers (with Smash Sauce)

These were our go-to protein-packed lunch this week. They reheat beautifully and actually taste better with time. I loved stacking them with caramelized onions, bacon, and a creamy Greek yogurt smash sauce… either slathered on or served on the side. They’re quick, nourishing, and freezer-friendly!! Made lunch a no-brainer during our busy week.

Balsamic Pesto Ground Beef & Veggie Bowl

This is one of those meals that feels fancy but takes almost no effort, especially if your components are prepped ahead. 😉 It’s fresh, creamy, and savory with the perfect balance of protein, crunch, and herby flavor. I loved using a clean balsamic glaze and a big spoon of my homemade leek pesto to tie it all together!

Leek Pesto Chicken Quesadillas + Homemade Blender Pizza Sauce

My boyfriend said this one was a solid 9/10 (he wanted some spice to make it a 10/10), but we both absolutely loved it. The filling is a creamy mix of cottage cheese, chicken, and my homemade leek pesto… SO flavorful and satisfying!! We dipped it in a quick blender pizza sauce that came out of a last-minute need…

We didn’t have pizza sauce for our Friday night pizzas, so I threw this one together with canned tomatoes, and it turned out so delicious and so easy that I’m going to start making it all the time now. Quesadillas are already a go-to for us, and this one just made the list of favorites.

High Protein Migas (tortilla & egg scramble)

This was a last minute recipe i decided to add into this week meal plan because it is truly SO easy to make and came out so delicious. I’ve see this meal a few other times and now that I’ve make the simple, classic version, i can’t wait to try it out with different toppings and combos! I used my freezer sourdough tortillas I always have on hand, but this could also work with sprouted/fermented corn tortillas or siete tortillas. Can’t wait for you to try this!!

Cottage Cheese Chicken & Broccoli Baked Pasta

This has been my favorite way to make pasta for months… toss everything into a baking dish and let the noodles cook in the bone broth instead of boiling them. It adds so much flavor and makes for a super creamy, no-fuss dish. I don’t eat cruciferous veggies often because I usually have a hard time digesting them, but this didn’t make me feel bad at all. The broccoli is well-cooked, which helps break down the cell walls and makes it a lot easier to digest! With blended cottage cheese, a mix of cheeses, prepped chicken thighs, leeks, and garlic, this dish is comforting, protein-rich, and perfect for leftovers too :)

Monster Cookie Protein Balls

These are a go-to snack in our house and something I repeat often in the meal prep guide. they’re just so easy and made with ingredients we almost always have on hand. The base is packed with protein, fiber, and healthy fats from sprouted oats, chia seeds, peanut butter, and raw honey, with a boost from grass-fed protein powder. (I grab a large bag of Unflavored Whey Grass-fed Protein Powder from Amazon)

I usually mix in chocolate chips, Unreal M&Ms, and sometimes crushed salted cashews, but feel free to switch it up! Freeze-dried strawberries, shredded coconut, chopped dates, or even cacao nibs would all be great here. Store in the fridge or freezer for a quick, blood-sugar-friendly bite any time.

My goal with all of the recipes is to use the same variety of ingredients, just turned into different flavor profiles… that way your grocery trip is short & sweet.

I get it, life is BUSY. We are constantly on the go, places to be, people to see… but that shouldn’t stop you from investing time in yourself & in your health. When we eat for nutrition vs macros & looks, you’re entire life can turn around…
