    It's easier (and tastier) than you think.

    2. Stock your grocery cart with seasonal fruits and veggies.

    3. For a perfect sweet-salty-spicy snack, sprinkle those fruits and veggies with a bit of chile-lime seasoning.

    4. Make weeknight dinners way easier by always having prepped protein on hand.

    5. The same goes for good-for-you grains: bulk prep a batch of them early in the week, then mix and match as needed.

    Like brown rice, white beans, farro, or quinoa. Any and all can be stored and used throughout the week as bases or sides — and if you make it ahead of time, that's one less thing to cook during the busy workweek.
