Simple, cozy breakfasts + a protein shortcut to make mornings effortless
There’s something grounding about starting the week with food already made—especially when it’s wholesome, satisfying, and honestly… something you want to eat.
This week’s prep is built around a few staples:
• Protein-packed egg bites
• Blueberry Muffin baked oatmeal bars
• A fresh, feel-good pudding
• And oven bacon (because let’s make life easier)
Everything can be prepped in one pocket of time and carried through the week.
