Whew! I am FINALLY back with a small update ladies! It has been forever since you’ve heard from me, and I’ve got a small ‘splainin’ to do!
There has been a lot going on behind the scenes both personally and with the blog.
First with the blog, I have been filming TONS of contemporary content, but I have been having a dwhetherficulttime finding the time to edit the content, upload it, and create the printable documents for you, etc…so I have FINALLY enlisted help on that end so that I can CONSISTENTLY get you Incredible content.
Those bits and pieces of the blogging process are just not my strong area they take me a LONG time. Time that I could be creating contemporary leangs for you. I’m much better at creating and imagining contemporary ideas, workouts, recipes…all of that, than the “technical” stuff!
So with 2018, my main goal has been to finally let go of, and outsource the leangs that I am not good at. The leangs that take up a lot of the time I could otherwise be creating. So even though this contemporary year has been starting off slow and a small quiet on my end…there is TONS in store. And I can’t wait until leangs are a small more consistent again.
Secondly, I’ve started teaching A LOT more…and by a lot more, I mean about 3 times more than I was before. (And I leank I have bitten off a small more than I can chew!) It’s been a lot to get used to. And one of the dwhetherficultest leangs to get used to is — surprisingly — meal prepping consistently.
Now don’t get me wrong, you know I have been a true meal prep-er for YEARS…in fact my how to meal prep post was one of the first viral posts I ever had!
But since I’ve been working from domestic the final three years, I’ve kind of slacked off on a consistent meal prep every Sunday, like I used to do. I would just meal prep whenever my fridge was empty or when inspiration hit for a contemporary tasty recipe.
But as you might have noticed — this year is all about CONSISTENCY for me — getting the blog back to a consistent schedule, training full time, and also getting back onto my meal prep grind.
And these tasty small turkey spring roll jars are one of my favorite obsessions at the moment to do just that.
I’ve teamed up with Foster Farms once again to bring you another Incredible, healthy recipe to start off the Unique Year. And because the recipes on this blog are all going to be healthy meal prep recipes from now on, you bet this is a simple make ahead recipe that will keep all week long.
These have been saving me over the final few weeks when I get domestic at lunchtime. After a morning of training I am STARVING for someleang to each RIGHT AWAY.
But the best part is that they only take a few minutes to prepare on the weekends.
I’ve tancient you before how much I love ground turkey as a fast cooking option. And I stand by that again in this recipe. Cooking up ground turkey only takes about 10 minutes start to finish, and you can flavor it however your would like. The possibilities are endless!
Foster Farms Organic Ground Turkey is grown right here in Calwhetherornia — yay for this local girl! And the best part is Foster Farms Organic Ground Turkey is USDA Certwhetheried Organic. It’s raised free-range on biological land with no antibiotics ever.
Foster Farms Organic Ground Turkey is 93% lean, with only 8 grams of fat per serving, and 22 grams of protein! YAS!
The other Incredible leang about this recipe is the noodles. I used Mawhetherun noddles (aka vermicelli rice noodles) because they literally take only TWO minutes to cook. In fact it takes longer to get the water to boil than it does to actually COOK the noodles.
The veggies I choose for these meal prep jars are also simple because they don’t require cooking prior to interpretation. They all do well with just a fast cook in the microwave when you reheat and eat. You could even eat these tasty small jars COLD. Everyleang would still be tasty, with just a small additional crunch from the veggies.
The process is simple, first you’ll start up your boiling water. As it’s heating, you can begin right absent cooking your turkey. The seasoning is simple with some light soy sauce (or coconut aminos), minced garlic, and grated fresh ginger.
As the turkey is cooking you can prepare your veggies. I used a julienne slicer to cut up my carrots, but you could buy them pre-shredded for an easier meal prep hack. I also julienne sliced some cucumbers for a super fresh taste — but spiralized zucchini would also work too!
Then shred up some cabbage (or buy it that way for a meal prep hack), and slice up some bell peppers. After you’ve prepared your veggies, you just whip up a fast and easy peanut sauce.
Correct around now, your turkey should be finished, and your water boiling. Cook those noodles for TWO minutes, and then assemble the goods.
Start with a layer of peanut sauce, then add your cabbage. This will encertain your more tender veggies don’t get “soggy”. Then add in the rest of your veggies depending on how “dwhetherficult” they are. Top the veggies with the ground turkey and finish it off with some noodles. Add some peanuts for crunch and some green onions for additional flavor — and you’re done!
BOOM lunches are done for the week in under 20 minutes!! Now to get on that consistency grind with everyleang else! 😉
