At Fuego and Salt, we believe that great food should fuel your week—not stress you out. Whether you're a busy parent, a professional on the go, or someone just looking to eat better without the hassle, meal prep is one of the easiest ways to bring flavor, balance, and sanity to your weekly routine.
🔥 Why Meal Prep Works
âś… Saves Time
By cooking in batches once or twice a week, you eliminate daily cooking stress and decision fatigue. Spend less time over the stove—and more time enjoying life.
âś… Supports Healthy Eating
With prepared meals on hand, you're less likely to grab fast food or skip meals. Plus, you control your ingredients and portion sizes.
âś… Reduces Waste and Saves Money
Buy in bulk, use everything, and cut down on last-minute takeout. It’s good for your wallet and even better for your fridge.
âś… Keeps You On Track
Whether you're watching macros, cutting carbs, or just aiming for more balance, meal prep keeps your goals in sight—and on your plate.

🧊 Bonus Tips for Successful Meal Prep
-
Use compartment-style containers to keep textures fresh
-
Cook proteins and grains in bulk, then mix-and-match with different sauces throughout the week
-
Always label your containers with the prep date
-
Don’t forget snacks! Pre-cut veggies, hummus, or hard-boiled eggs can be lifesavers
