Boojum considers his options. "Ok, so I helped Kickstart "Prepd". That is a pre-prepared lunch system that you can fill the pieces during the weekend and then take them to work in your "lunch box" for meals. It includes the Prepd app as well as all the internal containers. What I am looking for is help with recipes that I can cook in batches, and then fill my prep'd containers with on the weekend for my lunches during the week.
I want to average about 800 calories per day, covering the 4 days I want to bring my food from home.
Each container is 1.77" tall. I will have 4 - 5.51" x 5.51" containers, 8 - 2.71" x 2.71" containers, and 4 - 5.51" x 2.71" containers. The meal will need to fit in a container that can have one layer of boxes that are 5.51" x 8.22" in total dimensions!"
The bunny smirks a bit. "For those who are a bit OCD, yes, this is an excercise in getting all the numbers to add up right! Have fun! I'm going to start with a couple of recipes that I already like from the app!"
From the Prep'd App, Rice, Rice, Baby! Uses 1- 5.71" square container and 1- 5.71"x2.71" container. 574 Calories.
