7 Easy Make Ahead Jar Meals

7 Make Ahead Jar Meals

I created these make ahead jar meal recipes for easy instant savoury breakfasts (I really don't like a lot of typical breakfast foods - b/c I don't really enjoy sweet for breakfast - and I get tired of eggs).

But YOU don't have to have them for breakfast, they are great for take away lunches or lazy suppers too!

Cottage Cheese Bowl

403774085_10159587091671723_7887905225975899599_n

This is so easy! It's just dry curd cottage cheese, topped with cinnamon and ‘brown sugar’ erythritol (Swerve brand)

If you don’t like the texture of dry curd, top it with a splash of whipping cream, or half and half.

1/2 cup dry curd cottage cheese contains 13 grams protein.

This is the low carb way of making it. If you don’t mind the extra carbs, you can also add fresh berries or apple (grated or chunky)
