Be Prepared

If you want to be successful on the Starch Solution, having foods ready to eat is key. I always have salads meal prepped so I can eat one as a meal each day. I also like to make big batches of whole grains like rice or quinoa, steel cut oatmeal or a week of overnight oats (minus the chia seeds). I also like to keep baked sweet potatoes to add to my salads, or have cut up veggies in the fridge on hand for roasting or steaming. It can take a couple hours to meal prep, but it's worth it!

I also love making a big pot of soup in my pressure cooker and freezing individual portions. If you look in my freezer, you'll also see those small bags of frozen broccoli and cauliflower — these are ready in four minutes in the microwave, so they're great in a pinch! Canned beans are also great to have on hand when I haven't cooked up dry beans.

If whole grains, potatoes, beans, and veggies are ready for you to eat, you'll be more likely to eat them!
