Weekly Preparation Strategy

Our plan focuses on two key moments:

• Sunday : Prep snacks, slow cooker, and vegetables
• Monday : Preparing the granola while the beef is cooking

Sunday Optimization

Sunday preparation allows you to:

• Prepare the slow cooker and marinate the vegetables for Monday
• Prepare all individual snack portions
• Save time on weeknights
• Making morning lunches easier
• Reduce food waste

Monday Beef: A Strategic Base!

Cooking beef on Monday is strategic because it:

• Allows you to prepare granola while cooking
• Reduces dishes (using the slow cooker)
• Prepare protein for 2 meals
