Key Ingredients
Getting Started
- Start small: Choose 2-3 recipes for the week rather than planning every single meal.
- Invest in quality containers: Airtight, microwave-safe glass containers keep food fresh longer and simplify reheating.
- Batch cook staples: Prepare large quantities of grains (quinoa, rice) and roasted vegetables to mix and match throughout the week.
- Cool food completely: Always let hot food cool to room temperature before refrigerating to prevent bacterial growth and condensation.
- Create a schedule: Dedicate 2-3 hours on a specific day (e.g., Sunday) for all your prep and cooking.
