This looks awesome and so healthy, Blessed! Did you cook the shrimp in buffalo sauce? 

Well my daughter had a bottle of tabasco sauce in the fridge so I threw them in the pan and poured her sauce on while cooking them . Do you meal prep? You are so busy yet always take time to make the healthiest of meals ! I feel like I am so proud and happy when I eat a meal like this but then I go and get busy and grab something that’s not horrible but not really clean enough to get my scale moving down. Do you prep all your stuff in one day or just take the time each day and each meal to make healthy things right then and there ? 

This looks absolutely delicious beautiful 💜💚 

Thanks jcmama 😘😘 will for sure make it again  

I go day by day. 

Aww Blessed, you’re so sweet! So I do feel like I’m constantly cooking all day, but I try to do it in large batches to save time. I prepare my proteins and my veggies ahead of time and then cook the carbs like quinoa, pasta, and rice before serving. This week, I threw four chicken breasts in the slow cooker and then shredded them and then cooked down some ground turkey in the pan and some organic ground beef in another pan. So I had three kinds of proteins ready to go in the fridge. I cooked a cauliflower and a bunch of broccoli, and I have salad mixes already washed so you can grab a bit of everything and make a nice bowl. When I have nothing prepared, I’ll usually have greens with tuna salad or a frozen veggie burger. I’m not organized with it at all and do it as I am running out of food in the fridge. Then snacks are easy - some yogurt with banana and berries to make a parfait. Eggs are easy and fast too. 

Luv, I went to try the dirty nacho box from 🌮 🔔.... they stopped making it!! I should have jumped all over that when my friend at work was like” hey.... JC, let’s try this!” 😩😂💜💚 

Hmmm okay so I need to go get some Tupperware and just have everything ready to go . I thought about that before but wasn’t sure if I’d still like my meat (except for chicken chickens always fine ) reheated the next day bc I love my meats to have a good burnt crispy crust on them . But obviously that has not worked for me and better to have food on hand ready to sit down and eat then to tell myself I will come home and cook it all fresh right there and it never happens so I’m munching on gold fish and Hershey’s kisses til I can make my food 😆 Thank you for the help and guidance mermaid !!  

And haha the dirty nacho box ??? Haven’t heard of that but it sounds naughty and delicious 😉 😋  

That looks fantastic!
