Kaitie’s day with Better Homes and Gardens! 

Kaitie says Johanna and the Better Homes and Gardens crew came to her house before they headed off to her local Woolworths to shop for groceries. 

When it comes to meal prep Kaitie says, “I always aim for budget effective as well time efficient.

“The shopping came to $120, and the plan was to make 60 meals using those ingredients,” she says. 

“After that we headed back to my house where the magic began.”

60 healthy meals for $120 – that’s just $2 per serving!

Kaitie, who has lost 21kg following the 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge, says meal prep was a massive factor in helping her get into shape.

“With plans to spend $120 on 60 healthy family friendly meals, I went to the drawing board.

“Searching through the hundreds of recipes on The Healthy Mummy’s 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge hub, I opted for some old time favourites,” she spills.
