Meal prep gets a bad reputation for being boring, repetitive, or something you power through for the sake of convenience. But it doesn’t have to be that way. With the right spice blends, meal prep becomes something you actually look forward to: colorful, aromatic, and full of personality.
That’s where Healthy On You spice blends come in. They’re designed to do the heavy lifting for you: layered flavors, organic ingredients, and blends that instantly transform simple staples into meals you’re excited to eat all week long. Below are a few easy ways to turn up the flavor while keeping meal prep simple, efficient, and anything but dull.
For Your Proteins:
Proteins are the backbone of most meal prep, but they’re also where people tend to get stuck in a rut. Chicken, fish, tofu, or ground meat don’t need complicated marinades or long ingredient lists to taste good. A generous seasoning before cooking (and a quick finish after) adds depth, warmth, and interest without extra effort.
Spice blends help proteins taste intentional, not plain, so you’re not reaching for sauces or condiments later to make them exciting. Season confidently, cook simply, and let the blend do the work.
Our favorite blends for proteins are: Seasoning Beneath My Wings, Hit the Roast Jack, Fish You Were Here
For Your Veggies:
Vegetables are where spices really get to shine. Roasting, sautéing, or air-frying veggies with a bold blend brings out natural sweetness, adds texture, and makes even the most basic produce feel craveable.
The right spice combination can completely change the vibe of your veggies from cozy and comforting to bright and vibrant so eating them never feels like an obligation. Bonus: well-seasoned veggies are the kind you actually want to finish by Friday.
Our favorite blends for veggies are: Moroccan 'Round the Clock, Let the Good Thymes Roll, Here Comes the Yum
For Your Bases:
Rice, quinoa, farro, or roasted potatoes often act as the base of meal prep bowls, but they don’t have to be bland. Seasoning grains while they cook or finishing them with a spice blend adds subtle flavor throughout, not just on top.
This is one of the simplest ways to elevate meal prep bowls so every bite tastes cohesive instead of like separate components thrown together.
Our favorite blends for your bases are: De Spice Cito, You're So Spain, Bohemian Rosemary
For Sauces & Dressings:
Spices aren’t just for cooking, they’re a secret weapon for quick sauces and dressings. Mixing a blend into olive oil, yogurt, tahini, or vinaigrettes instantly creates something that tastes homemade and thoughtful, without extra prep time.
These finishing touches keep meals interesting and give you flexibility to change flavors throughout the week using the same base ingredients.
Our favorite blends for your dressings are: While My Za'atar Gently Weeps, The Fennel Countdown, Provence You've Been Gone
