Trend Alert - Ingredient Prep

Ingredient prep refers to the process of preparing and organising ingredients before cooking. By doing this in advance, you streamline the cooking process, reduce cooking time, and make it easier to follow recipes. Ingredient prep is particularly useful for meal planning, as it helps you quickly assemble meals throughout the week and can minimise cleanup and stress during busy times.

Tips

• Block out time in your week to do it, i.e Sunday evening

• Label and date the ingredients

• Use containers that make it easy to see and stack in your fridge

• Keep a list of meals or everything prepped and stick it on the fridge.
