The #1 goal, make your plan fool proof AND fail proof. Make it to where you don't even have to think about what to do on Monday morning. Have your ice chest, ice packs, water jug, shaker and storage containers ready to go.
For most of us, Sundays are the idea meal prep days, so make it a top priority. Your body, your health, your family is worth the investment. Double your ROI (return on investment) by making these simple steps a habit. It's really not that difficult to adopt this lifestyle.
You should be eating salads every day, even multiple time a day. Pack your salads in advance and apply dressing each morning only for that day. While you have out all of your salad ingredients, make enough to last 3 days. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday lunches are covered...no second guessing. Then, repeat on Wed night, for Thurs, Fri, and Sat.
Your protein sources for salads can be sliced chicken breasts or a few hard-boiled eggs. Add a slice or two of cheese, and you have yourself a complete protein and fibrous carb meal.
My top two choices for salad dressings:
Scrap any dressing that has sugar in it; you don't need it.
marinade for 6-7 chicken breasts:
Mix all ingredients in a gallon size Zip Lock bag. Add chicken breasts to bag and mix once again making sure to massage marinade throughout chicken. Refrigerate for about four hours or overnight to intensify flavor. You can also freeze until you are ready to grill.
Sprinkle each side with Kosher salt or sea salt, freshly ground black pepper, and rosemary, either fresh or dried. Drizzle with olive oil (can use orange infused olive oil). Grill until fully cooked.

Sprinkle steak season on both sides and grill to desired preparedness.
Feel free to add your own dried food. Just keep it clean and all natural.
Other than being cost effective, the other great benefit to homemade trail mix is the absence of preservatives and artificial flavorings. Unsalted, raw nuts combined with dried fruit make for a delicious snack at home, in the office, or on the road. Keep a zip-lock bag in your car to avoid the quick coke and candy bar stop or to squash those drive-time hunger pains.
Once your mix is complete, reuse your empty bags to store your wonderful creation. Each day refill your storage container, and you're equipped with a tasty and nutritious snack.
