Weekly Meal-Prep Plan

A once-a-week session to plan a handful of meals and prep reusable components. Cook grains, a protein, and chopped vegetables in advance, then assemble balanced plates through the week. Designed for busy schedules where decision fatigue is the main obstacle.

Grade inherited from the evidence blocks this routine implements. Duration is a starting point (do more or less); the app just tells you where you land against the evidence-based dose.
