Below are some options we normally eat but we really mix and match everything as we desire. I myself eat 4 full meals a day but my son eats 3 meals and 3 snacks usually. My husband was only eating 2 meals a day but I helped him transition to eating 3-4 times a day a few months ago to improve his metabolism and health.

*We love this recipe for granola bars:
To prep, we cook up a lot of chicken breast and shred it and freeze most of it and then have a bag of it in the fridge for wraps, quesadillas or burrito bowls. I also batch cook dry beans - pintos and black beans - and again, I freeze most but keep a bag in fridge. We make 4 cups of brown basmati rice for the fridge and then boiled eggs as well. This makes it easy to make an assortment of things during the week. I also try and cook up a 9x13 dish of granola bars but they tend to get gone in 2-3 days easy.
