I'm curious if anyone does this? Ideally if my life was perfect we'd go shopping at the market on the Saturday (very early am) and do meal prep all 3pm. This would involve marinating meats (over night then freeze), chopping up all the veggie, chopping up all the fruits (for smoothies) and freezing everything that you can freeze. So on a weekday, the night before you'd move say, the meat and veggies to the fridge to defrost, then you just have to cook it when you get home.
Does anyone do something like this?
- Also all those awesome market deals e.g. a box of figs for $15, or 5kg of ripe bananas, that you hear about others purchasing, how do you come across those?
- Do you time your purchases at the super/market to get the end of day specials? Like fruit by the box. Roast chickens and bakery goods at Colesworth half price.
I have been trying to do this but my cooking skills are still laughable.
I can only really cook simple meals like two minute noodles/ boiled potatoes/fruits potatoes and nachos etc
I can do some ok meals like vegetable stir fry and eggplant too.. Which is nice..
If the place I was staying at wasn't strictly vegetarian I would probably do much more oven cooked meals.
As for prices usually users see them in store or check the online websites coles and Woolworths or catalogues.
