# Meal Prep

Most of the time I cook fresh food, but some of my recipes lend themselves
well to meal prep.

Instead of big batches of one single meal that can be eaten in one sitting, I like using the **lego technique**:
When I cook something for meal prep, I break it down into smaller 250g portions that I can freeze individually - Those
bricks can then be combined afterwards to make a meal.<Sidenote>A silicone based container with 250g compartments is perfect for this. I got mine [from Amazon](https://www.amazon.de/dp/B0BZD9FXFW?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title).</Sidenote>


- [Fried Rice](/fried-rice) and [Peanut Tofu](/peanut-tofu) work together well. Can be supplemented with cucumbers, chickpeas and pomegranate seeds.
