Here’s this week’s lineup! The feature food is dried apricots!

Dried apricots add a gentle burst of sweetness to meal. And since they’re a whole fruit that has just had the water content removed from it, they’re concentrated in nutrients such as fibre, potassium, and Vitamin A.

MEAL PLANNING TIP: take the dried apricot theme a step further and plan to make these DIY Aussie Bites and enjoy for snacks or breakfast throughout the week!

This Week’s Lineup!

If you have an hour or two on the weekend to take some time to prep parts of your meals, then you can get dinner on the table so much faster during the week! Here are some meal prep ideas:

1. Chop your veggies

Chop your veggies and then place each meal’s worth of veggies in a ziploc bag.

Greek Chicken Quinoa Salad: Cut the red pepper, cucumber, broccoli, cherry tomatoes, and red onion.

Pistachio Salmon Cakes with Apricot Rice: If you are serving this with a side salad, cut the veggies for that salad.

Sundried Tomato and Feta Spinach Salad with Grilled Chicken: Slice the bell peppers.

Moroccan Beef and Lentils: Dice the onion, grate the carrots, and cut the dried apricots.

2. Prepare your sauces

Make the dressing for the Greek Chicken Quinoa Salad, the side salad (Pistachio Salmon Cakes with Apricot Rice), and the Sundried Tomato and Feta Spinach Salad.

3. Prepare your protein

Grill and slice the chicken for the Greek Chicken Quinoa Salad and the Sundried Tomato and Feta Spinach Salad.

Happy meal prepping!
