Some weeks you might not need to prep meals for all five days. Whether you’re going on vacation or it’s a long weekend, you might want to modify your meal prep to be only four days of the week. Since we want to make healthy eating as easy as possible, here is a smaller, four-day Meal Prep Monday guide that you can follow for shorter weeks.
