If you’ve spent any length of time on here, you know how obsessed we are with meal prep. Need proof?
Here are several easy meal prep recipes:
- Meal Prep Southwest Chicken Burrito Bowls
- Paleo Turkey Meatballs Meal Prep Bowls
- Paleo Slow Cooker Jerk Chicken Meal Prep Bowls
- Vegan Meal Prep Black Bean Quinoa Bowls
Yeah. Just a little obsessed. Why?? Personally, it’s because meal prep is one of the only ways I tend to stay on track when I’m trying to eat really healthy! But it also saves a ton of time during busy weekdays.
I think we can all relate to the after work “what am I going to eat for dinner” rush! Sometimes it’s easier to just drive through somewhere or eat junk. Trust me, we’ve all been there! This is coming from the girl who used to eat lucky charms for dinner because she was too busy/tired to cook and didn’t want to spend money on eating out. Plus…I mean….LUCKY CHARMS. C’mon! They’ll always have a special place in my heart.
All that to say, you’re not alone, friend!

What to serve with steak & potatoes? Broccoli, of course!
Or any other type of green vegetable. Broccoli just happens to be one of my faves 😉 Seasoned to perfection with my favorite veggie seasoning! A green vegetable (or really any veggie) balances these Steak & Potatoes Meal Prep Bowls and makes them perfect for a quick and easy dinner or on-the-go lunch!
A couple of notes about this recipe:
1. I made the steak & potatoes in the slow cooker! I’m all about slow cooker recipes these days. This is the programmable slow cooker that I use and love!
2. I cooked the steak about 75% of the way and then added in the potatoes. However, you can also make this entire recipe in the oven (or simply place the potatoes in the oven for a crispier texture)!
Here’s how to make these Steak & Potatoes Meal Prep Bowls!
