Mealprep
Homemade food to go is the top trend - but it is not a new trend: it is based on the principle of "cooking ahead". It has many advantages, such as creating more flexibility in day-to-day life.
Cooking meals takes time, but meal prepping for several days means you save time spent shopping, cooking and tidying.
By consciously choosing recipes for a balanced and healthy diet you won't have to resort to ready-made meals after a stressful day.
Planning meals and using up leftovers means much less food is thrown away.
No more aimless shopping: specific planning of ingredients saves money.

The best secret meal prepping tips
To get the full benefit of meal prepping, good planning is worth its weight in gold. First, think about what you would like to cook. In general, any food can be used. Meals with the same base, such as rice or pasta, are quick and easy to cook for the entire week. Then you combine this base with different sides which gives you varied and balanced meals.
Have you thought about which dishes you want to cook and are you ready for meal prepping? Then find a day when you have enough time for your meal prepping session. You could, for example, do your shopping on Saturday and cook the dishes on Sunday. Cooking your meals ahead for the week saves you time on the other days, which you can spend on doing fun things.
The best way is to pack your prepared meals in air-tight containers and store these in the centre compartment of your fridge. This will keep your dishes fresh for a few days. So that you can enjoy your meals to the full, it is recommended that salad be eaten on the day it is prepared. This ensures it stays fresh and crisp. You can safely store spinach, fish and seafood in the fridge for one to two days, preferably in the lower compartment.
Are you a meal prepping pro and would you like to prepare meals for an entire week, but not sacrifice on flavour and freshness? No problem! Simply freeze your meals and place them in the fridge to defrost the night before eating.
