The Ultimate Meal-Prep Cookbook
One Grocery List. A Week of Meals. No Waste.
Borrow Borrow
Turn meal prep aspirations into dinnertime reality
1 short shopping list gets you 5 weeknight meals

Meal prep no longer means filling your freezer with boring casseroles, dipping into the same pot of beans every day for a week, or spending all day Sunday cooking. Instead, use these smart meal plans to customize fast, fresh dinners that fit your ever-changing schedule. We've done the work of building 25 weekly plans that minimize shopping and kitchen time and guide you through prep-ahead options, make-ahead options, and ingredient substitutions. So now you can reap the benefits to make your life easier, your grocery bill lower, and your dinners better.
ATK's meal plan strategies are easy to put into practice:
* Prep your vegetables and grains for the week in a weekend "power hour."
* Prep bulk pantry ingredients ahead in a "pantry power hour" so they're ready to go in a flash.
* Cross-utilize fresh ingredients creatively to prevent food waste and dinner boredom.
* Make, store, and reheat full meals with no loss of flavor.
* Double meals or meal components to freeze half for later.
Let's-get-real features streamline your cooking:
* Weekly grocery lists max out at a dozen items.
* Active cooking time for recipes maxes out at 45 minutes.
* Loads of pantry substitution suggestions let you adapt recipes according to what you have on hand.
* To make planning even more flexible, we've added a chapter with 30 pantry meals that don't add anything to your weekly shopping list, making them perfect to prepare any night.
With a grocery list of just 11 items and some on-hand pantry staples, you can enjoy a week of Crispy Chicken with Carrot, Orange, and Chickpea Salad; Meatballs and Lemon Orzo with Mint and Dill; Teriyaki Stir-Fried Beef with Green Beans; Herb-Poached Salmon with Cucumber-Dill Salad; and Sun-Dried Tomato and White Bean Soup with Parmesan Crisps.
A thorough introduction explains how to build a strong, diverse pantry (and make the most of it), how to store prepped ingredients to keep them fresh, how to store cooked food safely, the smartest ways to reheat food, essential meal-prep equipment, and more.

    Meal-prep models--methods and plans for efficiently planning, shopping for, preparing, and storing multiple meals at once--vary widely in taste, complexity, and effort. The approach America's Test Kitchen takes in this well-organized, recipe-rich plan, which is heavy on American family favorites for omnivores, and differs from the field in their trademark way by explaining the why behind their suggestions, in addition to the thorough and conversational how for which they are known. Each week's plan includes four recipes with suggested fifth "pantry recipe" options, a structure that allows for the kind of flexibility that makes meal planning sustainable. Recipes all have photographs, are easy to follow, and are crafted so that all the dishes of the meal can hit the table at the same time. Essential preface guides on pantry staples, storing food for freshness, food substitutions, and tips on meal construction provide the down-to-earth home-ec instruction of a previous generation, but updated with a contemporary awareness. Rigorous indexing assists home cooks in quickly making the most of what they have on hand. Highly recommended for all cookbook collections.
