Do you plan in advance? If not, here are some tips to help you plan

The key to winning with Kick Start and getting the results you want is PLANNING.

Here are some top planning tips:

1: Plan your meals for the week.

If you wait until you are tired, hungry, or don't have the right ingredients you are likely to reach for the quickest, easiest and usually food that won't take you closer to your goals.

2: Planning Around Your Weekly Commitments

A weekly planner is a fab idea where you write in your commitments for the day/week, before planning your meals.

For example, swimming club after school = slow cooker meal not a brand new recipe with spices and loads of complex ingredients that you have never made before.

Keep It Simple On Busy Days 

3: Sunday Night Prep

If you plan your children's packed lunches in advance then once a week do some batch cooking, make healthy chillis, stews and slow cooker hot pots.  Freeze so you can always pull something out of the freezer.

Make up your salads and cook your sweet potatoes in foil in advance.

Make huge frittatas so you can take a slice on the go.  These will all keep for days in the fridge.

4: Make Extra

Whenever you cook always cook extra for the next day.  Tons of veg never goes to waste on Kick Start. You are always a day in front and have plenty of healthy food ready for when you need it.

Happy Planning
