MEAL

recipes PREP
Hi! I’m Krista!
WIFE, MOM OF 3, BUSINESS OWNER,
retired teacher. I know what It's like to be
busy. I also know how important having
meals prepped for the work week is. I
worked outside the home for 10 years
and always prioritized prepping my
Co-Owner & Founder of Stay Fit Mom lunches for the week. Not only does it
save me time throughout the week, but
it saves me money.

I started sharing my 5 day meal prep


recipes and videos in 2020 and had no
idea there would be such a big demand
for more. Here we are, 2 years later, and
the cookbook is finally here.

Thank you so much for your purchase


and support of this small business
that helps support my family. I hope
you love and cherish all these recipes
as much as I love creating them and
sharing them with you all. I have truly
found something I’m passionate about,
helping you cook macro friendly meals.

Just like all the Stay Fit Mom cookbooks,


the macronutrients are listed for every
recipe and they can all be found in
the MyFitnessPal food database for
easy logging. Just search Stay Fit Mom
followed by the name of the recipe.

If you make a recipe and love it, I’d love


to know! Getting tags and messages on
social media never gets old, and truly
brings me so much joy. Again, thank
you all for your continued support of
Stay Fit Mom!

commonly asked meal prep questions
DO YOU EAT THESE MEALS FOR 5 DAYS IN A ROW?
Yes. I prefer to make 5 meals on Sunday to last me the week, Monday through Friday.

CAN YOU REALLY EAT THE SAME THING 5 DAYS IN A ROW WITHOUT GETTING SICK OF IT?
Yes. If you’re making delicious meals you enjoy, you won’t get sick of them. If you’re tracking your
macros and have goals, consistency makes it a whole lot easier. If you feel like you need more
variety, make multiple meals to mix and match all week. Freeze extras for the following week. I
personally just like to meal prep my lunches, our dinner changes almost nightly.

CAN I FREEZE EXTRA MEALS?


Absolutely. I freeze just about everything. The only thing I don't freeze is salad. When freezing a
meal with pasta, just make sure to defrost it slowly and don’t stir until it’s warmed up or you’ll
have mashed up noodles.

WHERE DO YOU GET YOUR PLASTIC MEAL PREP CONTAINERS?


I buy most of my plastic meal prep containers on Amazon. You can shop my store here:
Amazon.com/shop/stayfitmom.

WHERE DO YOU GET YOUR GLASS CONTAINERS?


I typically find mine for a bargain ($3.99 – $5.99 each) at Ross, TJ Max, or Home Goods. I've also
spotted them at Walmart, Target, and Kroger in 2 packs. I put some in my Amazon store that I
have and like. Amazon.com/shop/stayfitmom

ARE THE GLASS CONTAINERS OVEN SAFE?


Make sure the ones you buy say oven safe on the label. Most the ones I see at the store are. Just
make sure if you ever freeze your containers, you let them defrost a few hours before you throw
them in the microwave.

WHAT SIZE ARE YOUR MEAL PREP CONTAINERS?


I most commonly use the 4 cup containers. For smaller meals, like pancakes, I use the 2 cup
containers.

WHERE DID YOU GET YOUR VEGGIE CHOPPER?


The famous veggie chopper I love to use for meal prep in my videos is from Amazon. You can
find that on my Amazon store here: Amazon.com.shop/stayfitmom.

HOW DO WE FIND THE MACROS IN MYFITNESSPAL?


You’ll find them by searching the food database for, “Stay Fit Mom” followed by the recipe name.
For example: “Stay Fit Mom Burritos Bowls” or “Stay Fit Mom Mini Meatloaf.”

DO YOU HAVE A DISCOUNT CODE FOR THE CLEAN SIMPLE EATS PROTEIN POWDER YOU
LIKE TO USE IN YOUR RECIPES?
Yes. It's stayfitmom.
