Green Vegetable Tray Bake

Packed full of greens, this vegetable tray bake is the perfect meal prep idea. This green vegetable tray bake is a really simple and effective way to make a big batch of vegetables that you can use for breakfast, lunch, or dinner for the week ahead.

A few weeks ago on my Instagram stories, I shared some of my go-to meal planning tips and I got a bunch of feedback and questions, so I figured what better way to share it with you all than directly on my blog! Every Sunday I try to dedicate an hour or two to doing a small amount of meal prep to help me get set up for my week. The nature of my job has me working at all hours of the day, and on a few days of the week I work late, so on those nights, it is nice to have some food prepared to come home to. Although I enjoy cooking, I don’t want to dedicate my entire weekend to getting food ready for the week, so the more efficient I can be with my time the better it is for me. When it comes to meal prepping, I tend to have a simple formula; cook 1 type of protein, 1 type of starch, and a big batch of vegetables. This method means that we have plenty of options for the week, be it lunch or dinner, and it gives me some flexibility when it comes to actually putting my meals together so I am not eating the same thing over and over again. If you’ve never done meal planning before, it can seem totally overwhelming, but once you’ve got your own formula down it will make weekdays so much easier when it comes to eating well.

This particular vegetable tray bake recipe is a really simple way to make veggies you can add to your breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Plus it’s incredibly versatile so you can use any combination of vegetables you like.

This vegetable tray bake recipe is so versatile, you can really swap in any vegetables you like. I chose to do this particular version with only green vegetables, but other vegetables like carrots, cabbage, beets, red onion and bell peppers all work very well too.
