● We’re all so used
to convenience now,
even the thought of
preparing a home-
cooked meal can
feel like a major drag.
While we’ve got some
great meal prep ideas
on page 36 that can
help make lunch
and dinner a breeze,
sometimes there just
isn’t time. Or maybe
you’d just rather watch
Netflix. We’ve been
there. But skipping
out on preparing your
own meals can lead
to the temptation of
Uber Eats... and there
go those healthy
eating goals for the
day. Instead, you
should prepare for
any eventuality and
keep the below in the
fridge or cupboard so
you’ll always have a
healthy go-to when
you’re hungry. Meal
delivery options have
revolutionised the
modern man’s diet –
having pre-portioned,
healthy meals that
someone else has
cooked and then
delivered to your
door really is living
the dream. And these
days, grab-and-go
bars and ready-to-
drinks don’t have
to be diet-wrecking
sugar bombs. Try
these and be happy.
READY
TO GO
Healthy food, when you need it.
TAKE-OUT TIP
Don’t resort to takeaway –
eating fast food just twice
a week can lead to major
weight gain, as well as insulin
resistance – a strong predictor
of type 2 diabetes.
