Cooking Hacks for Quick Meal Prep:

  1. Pre-Chopped Ingredients: Invest some time during the weekend to chop and prep ingredients like onions, tomatoes, and scallions. Store them in separate containers, so you can grab them quickly during the week, making meal prep a breeze.

  2. Double Batch Cooking: When making recipes like our Quick Chickpea "Tuna" Salad, consider doubling the batch. Store the extra portion in airtight containers, and you'll have ready-made meals for a couple of days. This not only saves time but ensures you always have a healthy option on hand.
