Protein Portion Scaling Meal Prep
Protein portion scaling meal prep weighs equal cooked protein into each container after batch cooking so macros stay honest across the week.
Protein portion scaling meal prep divides a cooked batch—chicken thighs, tofu slabs, lentil stew—into equal gram targets per container before sauces hide uneven scoops. Cook one large tray, rest, weigh, then pair with pre-portioned starch and vegetables.
Scaling the recipe is step one; scaling the plate is step two.
