So, you can purchase Andrea’s Meal Prep documents which include 5 recipes, the items you will prep on your Meal Prep Day, what needs to be completed each day to quickly finish off the meal, as well as the grocery lists for the week and some lunch meal examples. You will also receive a utensil and appliance list to make sure you are set up for success!
You will receive ideas of how to change one meal into a completely different one the next day, and how to make necessary shortcuts in the kitchen to allow you to enjoy the company, the meal, or any other activities you want!
