Start with your daily calorie and protein targets then divide them across meals Choose simple repeatable recipes and adjust portions of carbs protein and fats to hit your numbers without making the plan too complicated

I usually prep the ingredients instead of full meals so cooking during the week takes very little time

Batch cooking rice protein and vegetables makes weekday meals much easier

Chopping vegetables in advance saves more time than I expected

One pan meals are great because they reduce both cooking time and cleanup

I usually prep two or three meal components and mix them differently throughout the week

Overnight oats are one of my easiest breakfast options when mornings are busy

I keep frozen vegetables around because they save a lot of washing and chopping

Cooking larger portions at dinner gives me an easy lunch for the next day

I plan the meals before grocery shopping so I do not waste time deciding what to cook
