Here are some hacks to save precious time during meal prep:
- Double up on recipes: When cooking, prepare a larger portion and freeze half for another week.
- Utilize pre-cut vegetables: Save time by buying pre-washed and chopped vegetables to avoid chopping them yourself.
- Prep while watching TV: Multitask by chopping vegetables or prepping ingredients while catching up on your favourite show.
- Cook once, eat twice: Cook a large batch of protein like chicken breasts or ground turkey to use in multiple dishes throughout the week.
- Clean as you go: Wash dishes and clean up as you cook to minimize post-prep clean-up.
