Pre-Christmas meal prep: 3 quick recipes that take less than an hour and require minimal washing up

Today's meal prep inspiration is ideal for anyone who wants to have healthy, balanced meals on hand during the week—without tedious cooking and unnecessary chaos in the kitchen.
Just turn on the oven, prepare a baking dish with vegetables and meat, and while everything is baking, make a quick breakfast cake. And because there was still a little time left after baking, I also made savory sweet potato pancakes, which are great for the next day with a salad or as a quick dinner. Everything is made from commonly available ingredients, nothing complicated – but the result is colorful, tasty, and nutritionally well-balanced.
