I did an experiment this January with meal prep and my family. I spent several weekend days preparing food for my family for the coming week. Here is what I do each Sunday: I boil a dozen eggs. Then make one dozen “Egg Cups” with a dozen more eggs.

Then I make at least 2 main dishes and a big pot of soup/chili in my Dutch Oven Pot. This week I made eggplant lasagna, meatloaf and meatballs, chicken tortilla soup and I browned 2 pounds of ground beef that I seasoned with taco seasoning. This makes for a busy few hours in the kitchen, but saves so much time during the week. What are your make ahead meal favorites? Want some of mine? Check back soon and I will post my plans.
