meal prepping

Weekly food preparation

Meal prepping is preparing multiple meals or meal components in advance, typically for the week ahead.

The practice involves cooking in batches, portioning food into containers, and refrigerating or freezing for later consumption.

It's popular among people managing busy schedules, fitness goals, or dietary restrictions: I spend Sunday afternoons meal prepping so I don't have to cook after work.
