Batch cooking systems
These are the foundation. Cook one batch component-protein, starch, or vegetable-then turn it into 5-7 different meals throughout the week. No repetitive eating. No cooking every night.
This is how professional kitchens work: prep in advance, assemble quickly during service. Same system, scaled for your home kitchen.
Weeknight meals from batch components
Already batch cooked your components? Here's how to turn them into complete meals in 15 minutes or less. Breakfast, lunch, dinner-all from ingredients you prepped days ago.
No recipes to follow. No stress. Just heat, assemble, eat. This is what "meal prep" should actually mean.
