pre-prepared
Done in advance
Pre-prepared describes something made ready in advance, often before the final stage of preparation or before it's needed: pre-prepared meals, pre-prepared remarks.
The word is technically redundant—prepared already implies beforehand—but it emphasizes the advance work: The chef used pre-prepared ingredients to speed up service.
