Meal Scheduling
and Preparation

Find "Staples" that you like and create a rotation that suits your schedule. For example, choose Chicken, Tuna, Salmon, Steak and Turkey as your favorite proteins. Use them as the basis for most lunches and dinners. Then pick side vegetables or starches that compliment these meals. For example, Brown Rice, Salads, Soups etc. that can be batch prepared 2 times per week and used over several meals to aid in cost and time savings. By selecting the appropriate recipes and using the meal planning and shopping features of the Cyber Chef, you can not fail at making the change if the meals are planned, prepared and consumed!

For quick meal preparation, select recipes from the <60, <30 or <15 minute search options. Many meals can be prepared with a dual sided kitchen grill (ad placement link) in 5 minutes while vegetables can be quick steamed or microwaved for freshness. Proteins such as Salmon, Tuna or other fish products can be safely poached in 5 minutes! By wrapping the fillets in foil(add lemon, dill etc.) and place on the dual sided grill, instant poaching can be done without the smells and clean up associated with fish.Be sure not to overcook vegetables and proteins as their micro-nutrients are very much heat sensitive. Vegetables should be crunchy and bright in colour after cooking.
