We want to break out of this cycle of ordering delivery but at the same time, cooking everyday has been a challenge. We also have been trying to develop some sort of routine where we meal prep on the weekends but we live in an apartment with a really small kitchen so cooking and storing food for 5 days doesn’t seem doable. Maybe cook for 3 days and then prepare the ingredients to cook again on Wednesday?

I’d appreciate if you could share your strategies and experience. The goal here is to eat healthy and good food.

Edit: Thank you everyone for all your contributions! I am a little overwhelmed by the number of replies so I if I do not reply to you please do now feel bad!!

    It really helps to always have tortillas, pasta and rice in the house.

    This is something I relate to. It’s a workable system. A good base and throw whatever you have on top.

    I’d add a bread to that list. Something over rice one day seems totally different on toasted sourdough (or whatever flavor of bread you like) and when you have part of a loaf that is going stale, you can put it in the freezer for that.
