Anyone have a weekly food prep rountine to share?

I'm trying to start a once a week routine of prepping all my food for the week so that I can make healthy decisions. Does anyone have any healthy plans to share?  Grocery lists and recipes welcome!

Thanks!

The website "nutrition stripped" has a recommendation for batch cooking.  I make some kind of grain, some beans, roasted sweet potatos and baked tofu and I chop some veggies and make a miso or hummus based dressing.  Then, I can throiw togetherr the "nourish bowl" the website suggests -- greens with some of all of the above thrown in -- it makes a geat lunch.  I also make a batch of glo bars from Oh She Glows.  My whole family eats those.  I usually make baba ghanoush or have hummus around for snacks with baby carrots. I also keep broccoli slaw handy to make a quick salad and then have fruit and nuts around.  yesterday I did the sweet potato, rice, tofu and bab ghanoush all at once -- raosting the potatos, tofu, and eggplant all at 400 degrees while the ricke cooker was on.  It took about an hour for everything.

I usually make 1 casserole-type dish, and one pot of soup on my day off (and I do mean, DAY off, because most weeks I only get one.)
This week, I made butternut squash soup - so easy and low cal. Peel and dice up your squash, toss it in a pot and cover about halway with liquid. Sprinkle in 2 tsp of mild curry powder. Cook 20ish minutes until it's nice and soft, stir pretty often so it gets evenly cooked. Whip it up in batches in a blender, or use an immersion blender to puree it. Then stir in a few spoonfuls of coconut milk to get that creamy, velvety texture. I also add salt, pepper and cinnamon to taste. Makes about 2 servings, I usualy double it and take it to work for a few days.

My other dish this week was Happy Herbivore shepherd's pie, and I top it off with sweet potato mash instead of white potatoes for some added vitamin A. Again, incredibly filling, low cal, and super easy to make. Mmm...
