Weekend Power Prep (60 Minutes = 5 Days of Chill)

editWhy it matters (quick science): Prepped carbs/protein/veg make consistent meals easy → steadier energy, less decision fatigue.

How to do it (4 moves):

1. Sheet-pan roast: chicken/tofu + mixed veg (oil, salt, spice).

2. Grain pot: rice/quinoa/pasta.

3. Snack tray: cut fruit/veg; portion nuts/crackers.

4. Simple sauce: yogurt-herb or salsa.

5 Remix Meals from the Same Base:
💡 Taco bowl
💡 Wrap
💡 Pasta toss
💡 Big salad
💡 Fried-rice remix

Troubleshooting:

• “Bored by day 3” → rotate sauces (pesto, salsa, soy-ginger).

• “Soggy” → keep dressings separate; reheat grains/protein, add fresh veg cold.

Checklist:
✔️ 5 lunch boxes + 5 breakfast jars
✔️ Snack bags ready
✔️ Label dates; fridge map
✔️ Seasonings separate
