My highest protein “1 hour meal prep” ever

This is high protein meal prep for summer! I’m prepping 16 meals and snacks for the week in about 1 hour, so I can have easy meals ready-to-go in the fridge.

Ps. All these recipes are gluten free, and I will share dairy-free and vegan options.

Hope you enjoy!
