Meal prep weekly plan with recipes
For my first weekly plan, I picked out five very simple recipes for you, the ingredients of which are perfectly coordinated. All recipes are vegetarian and no dish will take you more than 20 minutes to prepare.
By the way, I paid less than €25 for two people for all the groceries on the shopping list. So meal prep is a great way to save money.
Tips for the meal prep weekly plan
1. Plan meals and Weeknplan write
I have already completed this step for you. You can easily print out the weekly plan for the coming week here or save it to your cell phone. All you have to do is check what food you might still have at home. 🙂
2. Shopping
Now it’s time to go shopping. My shopping days are Saturday and Wednesday. On Saturdays I buy all the ingredients I need for the recipes on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. I also buy basic ingredients for the rest of the days on Saturdays.
I only buy fresh fruit, vegetables and meat that I have planned for Thursday and Friday on my day second day of shoppingfresh on Wednesday.
3. Pre-cooking
My two cooking days for the work week are Sunday and Wednesday. On Sundays I prepare my planned recipes from the Meal Prep weekly plan for Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday and put them in my storage boxes. On Wednesdays I cook ahead for Thursday and Friday.
By the way, I never cook ahead of time for my weekends. Here we enjoy family time and cook fresh food together. We often go out to eat or order something delicious.
If you like, you can also cook ahead for all days on one day (for example Sunday). You can also plan the same dish for several days. That is entirely up to you.

Recipes for the meal prep weekly plan
For my first weekly plan I have chosen five vegetarian recipes for you. You need a maximum of 20 minutes to prepare it, and just 80 minutes for all five recipes! By the way, I spent less than €25 on all the ingredients.
All my recipes are designed for two people. 1-2 small children will definitely be full. My quantities are calculated very generously. 🙂
