As a working Mom, a list like this 50 Easy Prep Ahead After School Snacks would have saved me! And as a Mom who primarily works at home, I’m sure my daughter will say the same!

I think we all know the kids come home from school or activities starving! They’re hangry sharks circling the kitchen, rooting through the fridge and cupboards, looking to munch through anything and everything in sight. It doesn’t matter if they’re littles, tweens or teens, most kids are going to need a little sumpin’ sumpin’ to hold them over till dinner.

I fell for it – even as I clicked on the link, I just knew things would end badly. How could it not? The title was “Grandma thinks she has 3 cats until grandson notices this!” Well about 27 clicks later, and I kept clicking because I kept thinking I HAD to be close, they just morphed into a story about someone that had a dog that turned out to be a bear and another family whose dog was actually a fox. Now I will never know what the cat actually was or what happened to Grandma. But let’s just focus on what I do know. I know how good these Grilled Blackened Cajun Chicken Breasts are!

I love meal prep & rely a lot on make-ahead meals & planned leftovers to get through the week. Today, though, I’m doing things in an organized way: Cook this Meal Prep Chicken over the weekend and throw together five varied lunches for two with no repeats. Coz who wants to eat the same thing over and over?
