Meal Prep for a Nurse

Greek Chicken Burgers + Breakfast Burritos + Protein Mini Cupcakes

Meal prepping for my wife, Amy, has become one of my favorite things to share online. When I first shared the first episode of my Meal Prep for a Nurse series a few years ago I never imagined that it would become one of the things people love most about my page. I am excited to start sharing the full recipes for these meal preps along with a grocery list so that is even easier for you to make them in your own homes!

This weeks meal prep includes:

• Greek inspired chicken burgers on a Greek salad - these are also great served in a pita!

• A simple vinaigrette to go with the salad

• Breakfast burritos with cubed potatoes, turkey bacon, egg and cheese

• Protein mini cupcakes with white chocolate drizzle and sprinkles

Each recipe makes 4 servings. This is perfect for 2 days of work for Amy because while she eats them at work, I have my meals prepped at home.

One of Amy’s favorite meals for me to make for work are Greek salads, but because we don’t want the videos to get boring, we keep making variations on the salad. This week I changed them up by making these veggie loaded chicken burgers made with shredded zucchini, feta and lots of seasonings. The patties get pan fried so they are crisp on the outside and tender on the inside.

The breakfast burritos are pretty straightforward. To make them easier to make I used frozen cubed hash browns. We usually buy low carb tortillas so this time we did low carb burrito size tortillas to fit the potatoes inside better.

The protein mini cupcakes recipe are the perfect little sweet treat for after a meal. Each serving has about 15g of protein making them super satisfying.
