Make a week meal (bulk fajita mix is the go to for me) and then you just have something you need to reheat and you've only spent 2 hrs one day rather than 2hrs everyday. i usually end up making a couple meals on some of those days but there's no pressure to it since there's always something ready.

Freezer bags and Budgetbytes scaling features are your friends. FYI spaghetti sauce can be made in bulk super cheap and will stay in freezer bags for literal years.

    Whenever I try meal prep, one of two things will happen:

    1. I get sick of eating the same thing every day, and the leftovers just sit in the freezer for years.
    2. I smoke some weed, get the munchies, and eat it all by day two.

    I never have room in the fridge/freezer for this anyway. There has to be a better way.
