I have a busy week coming up so doing some meal prepping and figured I would not be the only one - let's swap notes. Basically I like to prep components so I can swap around with ease with one or two meals in there.

This week's menu

Breakfasts - yougurt + berries everyday

Roast veg salad:

Prep:

pre roast potato and sweet potato with onion and left over fennel
pesto+ avo dressing
seeds and saltanas in a jar to put on top

Assemble:

leaves, roast veg and toppings in a bowl. Dressing.
if hungry chuck a chicken tender in the oven too

Stew and polenta - dinner last night Prep: cook and portion (X2 in fridge and x3 in freezer)

Assemble:

steam veg or chuck rocket on the side
reheat

Tofu stir-fry

Prep: cut veges and store in fridge cut

Assemble: I'll pan bake the tofu and make a satay sauce at the time. Probably Wed night when I have time. It doesn't last as well so will be dinner/lunch

Mushroom risotto and chicken tenders

No prep but easy. Do risotto in the instant pot so I can leave it unattended and chicken in the oven. Serve with some left over rocket..

I am also cooking some white navy beans to add here and there or just to mash on its own. I have some eggs in the fridge and an apple a day. My aim

I don't meal prep as such but I do like to keep water chestnuts, champignons and baby corn spears in the cupboard. In the freezer I have frozen broccoli, peas and a stir fry mix. Then all I need is a meat and I have a quick stir fry. I'll use up any fresh veg first then bulk it up with the others.

Frozen veg is a life-saver living alone. I always have some GF pasta in the pantry. If all else fails, some pasta, olive oil, frozen greens and cheese is the go.
