Sheet Pan Veggie Meal Prep. I have never really been diligent at meal prep.I often grill vegetables in bulk, and add them to different dishes randomly. I also will make salad dressings or creme sauces and use them throughout the week. Neither of these practices actually qualifies as official meal prep. This week, I was more deliberate in planning--I wanted a delicious lunch for five days, and set out to do that. The result was very weird.

The food turned out exceptionally well and I was pleasantly surprised that it only took 1 hour to make all of the dishes that went into the weeks' lunches. What was weird was how excited I have been all week, knowing that I have these delicious lunches already assembled, and ready to eat. Seriously, I could have had 5 Amy's frozen dinners in the freezer and it would have been the same end result, but, it wasn't the same. It was really cool, and here are the details.

I prepared a chipotle marinade, and roasted vegetables and jackfruit in the oven. I cooked lentil pasta, (packed with 13 grams of protein in each serving) in the Instant Pot and used pre-cooked Seeds of Change Quinoa With Brown Rice. I used pre-shredded cabbage for the slaw, and in one hour, done. Delicious lunches for five days that are vegan, gluten free and dairy free.
