Meal Prep
The dream of meal prep: batch tasks, get all of your cooking done in one day, and avoiding unhealthy and expensive last-minute decisions like take-out.
But you still have to do all of that work.
The grocery haul, washing and cutting produce, stirring together the marinades, cooking everything, finding the right storage container, the list goes on.
Maybe itβs enough to end up in the middle: a week of mise en place ingredients in the fridge, a concept of what recipes will be made.
Maybe a strong plan of action is just as good as five hours of your weekend in the kitchen?
