| If weeknight dinners have been feeling a little hectic, a small amount of prep can go a long way. Even something simple like cooking a protein ahead of time, mixing a marinade, or having a meal ready to reheat can make dinner much easier when the week gets busy. That's the idea behind this week's plan — simple, high-protein dinners you can prep ahead so weeknights feel smoother.
