Start your day with this antioxidant- and fiber-packed acai bowl. Plant-based protein in the form of almond butter, chia seeds and hemp seeds are combined with an Atkins Blueberry Soft Baked Energy Bar for a delicious breakfast.
Meal Prep Tip: Combine the frozen ingredients in a resealable bag and freeze them. Measure out the toppings and chia seeds ahead of time for a fast and easy breakfast.

We replace potatoes with turnips and beans with jicama, then add creamy egg yolk and avocado for a low carb twist with this huevos rancheros-inspired dish. This breakfast bowl is great for a weekend brunch or a speedy weekday breakfast when you follow our meal prep tips.
Meal Prep Tip: Prepare each component of this recipe separately, then use one skillet to warm up the turnip while cooking the turkey bacon and frying the eggs. Assemble the bowl for a satisfying weekday breakfast.
Low Carb Mediterranean Healthy Harvest Bowl
Fresh pesto, a soft-boiled egg and nuts and seeds make this savory grain bowl a hearty low carb vegetarian option for breakfast or lunch.
Meal Prep Tip: The quinoa can be cooked ahead, cooled and stored in the refrigerator, and reheated in the microwave when needed. Fluff the quinoa before cooling and storing it to keep the grains separate.

These individually portioned enchilada pies become meal-prep perfection for dinner or lunch. Low-carb tortillas, Monterey Jack cheese, and creamy, spicy green sauce bursting with fresh cilantro bring it all together.
Meal Prep Tip: You can make the green sauce in advance and store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to five days. If you have extra, drizzle it over scrambled eggs, low-carb quesadillas or anything else for a pop of flavor.

This savory, spicy, garlicky snack can also be meal prep perfection for lunch or dinner. Cajun spices, fresh garlic, Tabasco sauce, crushed red pepper, and a Parmesan crust ensure this tasty bite packs a powerful punch.
