How to Start Meal Prepping
Plan Your Meals: Choose simple recipes you enjoy. Pick meals that reheat well, like rice bowls, pasta dishes, or soups.
Make a Grocery List: Write down everything you need before going to the store. This helps you stay focused and avoid buying too much.
Choose a Prep Day: Most people prep on Sunday or Monday. Set aside 1–2 hours to cook and pack your meals.
Use Good Containers: Buy reusable, microwave-safe containers. Keep meals fresh and easy to grab.
