Are your eating habits all over the place? Get organized with this healthy meal prep idea that includes chicken thighs, sweet potatoes, and brussels sprouts.

It will keep you fueled throughout the week, so you’ll have enough energy to take on whatever challenges that life throws your way.

TikToker Kate Newton (@wine.nutritionist) is a registered dietitian, and she’s showing how to prepare each of the components of this meal prep. It’s food that will stay delicious and nutritious all week long.

“I know you are looking for healthy meal ideas as the year starts, but remember, you don’t need a big resolution to take care of your health. It’s the tiny moments and things that people don’t see that get you results in the long term,” Kate wrote in the caption of her video.

Meal prep takes time and patience, but it helps lead you to a healthier lifestyle and, in turn, a healthier mindset. This meal idea is one of Kate’s go-to’s.

First, we’ll tackle the sweet potatoes. Peel and chop three large sweet potatoes. Scoop them into a plastic baggie and add two tablespoons of olive oil, salt, and pepper.

Toss them around to coat the potatoes thoroughly. Then, throw them onto a cooking sheet at 425 degrees Fahrenheit for 25 minutes.

Next up are the brussels sprouts. Grab one and a half bags of brussels sprouts, chop off the ends, and halve them.

Throw them into another plastic baggie to coat them in two tablespoons of olive oil, salt, and pepper.

Now, make a rub for the chicken thighs, using three tablespoons of brown sugar, one-fourth teaspoon of ground ginger, and a teaspoon each of smoked paprika, onion powder, and garlic powder.

Mix the ingredients in a bowl, then coat the chicken thighs in the mixture. Trim the fat off the chicken with a pair of kitchen scissors. Put them in the oven for 25 minutes at 375 degrees Fahrenheit.

Finally, add the food to your meal prep containers. Each meal is estimated to be about 375 calories, 24 grams of protein, 30 grams of carbs, and 18 grams of fat.

I know you are looking for healthy meal ideas as the year starts, but remember you don’t need a big resolution to take care of your health. It’s the tiny moments and things that people don’t see that get you results in the long term. I always tell people, what I do isn’t sexy. It takes time, patience, and discipline. My job? Give you guys amazing ideas and serve as a safe place to talk about & coach you through healthy lifestyle living with nutrition as a center focus with a healthy mindset. This week I did one of my staples. Chicken thighs, sweet potatoes and roasted brussels sprouts. For the sweet potatoes, peel, chop, toss with 2 tablespoons olive oil, salt and pepper, bake in the oven on a cooking sheet for 25 minutes at 425°. For the brussels sprouts, chopped the ends, halved, toss in 2 tablespoons olive oil, salt and pepper. Divide between bowls. For the chicken thighs, I trim the fat off with kitchen scissors, I usually use a different spice every time but made a rub this week. The rub is 3 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger. Coat the chicken and add to bowls. I go ahead and add the bowls to the oven while sweet potatoes finish. I drop the temperature to 375° and bake for 25 minutes. Estimated macros for those who count: 375 calories 24g protein 30g carbs 18g fat Add more to this meal depending on your personal nutrition needs. #Recipe #HealthyRecipe #MealPrep #HealthyMealPrep #HealthyMealIdeas #BakedChicken #Roastedsweetpotatoes #BrusselsSprouts #Nutrition #Nutritionist #Dietitian #DietitiansOfTikTok #RegisteredDietitian #WeightLossIdea #HealthyLifestyle #mealPrepRecipes
