Meal prep for busy weeks: a realistic Sunday plan

Batch-cook bases, not whole meals, and keep the week flexible.

Meal prep does not mean eating the same lunch five days in a row. Cooking a few flexible bases on Sunday makes weeknight meals quick and varied.

Cook bases, not meals

Prepare a grain, a tray of roasted vegetables, a protein and a sauce. Combine them differently through the week.

Keep it safe and fresh

Cool food quickly, refrigerate in shallow containers and eat most cooked food within a few days. Freeze portions you will not reach in time.
