Below are all the recipes I used for FIT MOM MEAL PREP! You can also find them on my Instagram page.
Coconut Mint Lime Refresher
Ingredients:
six 10.5 oz cans of C2O Coconut Water
2 limes sliced
1 small bunch of mint
1/4 cup lime juice
Directions:
In a large pitcher, add in your coconut water, sliced limes, bunch of mint, and lime juice.
Add ice in to the top and serve cold! I like to add in a drizzle of honey or maple syrup for some extra sweetness.
Enjoy!!

Meal Prep Breakfast Sandwiches
makes 6 sausage mcmuffins;
macros: 22g p / 24g c / 11g f & 245 cals
Ingredients:
6 100 cal english muffins (i use Lewis Bake Shop)
3 large eggs
1.5 cup egg whites
1/3 cup cottage cheese (i use good culture!)
salt + pepper to taste
6 slices sargento ultra thin colby jack
6 butterball turkey sausage patties
Directions:
preheat oven to 375*
while your oven preheats, whisk together your eggs, egg whites, cottage cheese, & salt+ pepper.
spray a silicone muffin tin (like this one) with cooking spray OR line a 9×13 baking dish with parchment paper. dump your egg mixture into the pan and bake for 20ish minutes (12ish if you’re using the silicone pan) or until eggs are cooked through.
while the eggs cook, get the rest of your sandwich stuff ready to assemble.
after the eggs are cooked, if you use a 9x13in pan, cut into squares. if you use the silicone pan, remove the eggs.
assemble the sammies! i use precooked turkey sausage so, so it makes it less work to throw these together. i also do NOT pre toast my muffins because i like to toast them when they reheat and i don’t want them to get too hard.
wrap in parchment paper and store in a reusable gallon ziplock bag! i store mine in the refrigerator for the whole week. you can also freeze these. just make sure your bag has no air and is sealed tight!
TO REHEAT:
i like to put mine in the toaster oven at 350 for about 5 minutes. if i am in a hurry, I’ll just microwave the sandwich for 45 seconds! if the sandwich is frozen, let it thaw overnight first before reheating.
