Sunday meal prep does not need to mean cooking everything for the week. It can simply mean planning your meals and prepping ingredients. Chop vegetables. Portion snacks. Prepare sauces or dressings. This small preparation makes weekday cooking much faster.
Plan your meals for the week. Write down what you will eat each day. Make your grocery list from this plan. Then spend thirty minutes on Sunday prepping ingredients. Wash and chop vegetables. Portion things out. Prepare what can be prepared ahead.
During the week, cooking becomes faster because the prep work is done. You can throw together a meal in minutes instead of spending time on preparation. This saves time and reduces the temptation to order takeout.
Plan your meals for next week today. Make your grocery list. Then commit to thirty minutes of prep on Sunday. Notice how much easier weekday meals become when you invest a little time on the weekend.
