What’s inside

A 3-page printable that turns meal prep into a simple system: pick your components with the 2-2-3-2 formula, fill in the weekly grid, follow the numbered prep-day timeline, then shop from the master list and store everything safely.

  • Weekly plan grid · Breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks for all 7 days
  • The 2-2-3-2 formula + idea bank · pick 2 proteins, 2 bases, 3 veggies, 2 sauces
  • Prep-day order of operations · 10 numbered steps with rough times, so nothing burns while you chop
  • Sheet-pan roasting guide · approximate times at 425°F for common veggies and proteins
  • Mix-and-match bowl formula · three example bowls plus a blank row for yours
  • Master grocery list · organized by store section
  • Fridge & freezer storage times · from USDA/FoodSafety.gov charts, plus the golden food-safety rules
  • Cut-out container labels · meal, prep date, eat-by

Who it’s for: Beginners who want to start meal prepping without a 4-hour Sunday, busy people who keep buying lunch, and anyone tired of deciding what’s for dinner every night.

Questions

Is this a recipe book?

No. It’s a planning system. It works with whatever you already like to cook, plus an idea bank and bowl formulas to get you started.

Can I reuse it every week?

Yes. Print a fresh copy each week, or slip it into a sheet protector and use a dry-erase marker.

Does it work for vegetarians?

Yes. The formula is built on components, so you can choose beans, lentils, tofu, eggs or any proteins you eat.

How do I get it?

Checkout is handled by Gumroad. Right after paying you get an instant download link on screen and by email.

What size is it?

US Letter (8.5 × 11 in) PDF. It also prints fine on A4 if you choose “fit to page.”

Can I share it?

It’s for personal use. Feel free to print as many copies as you need for your own household.
