My trick is changing the flavor instead of changing every ingredient. One batch of chicken can become buffalo chicken, fajita bowls, BBQ wraps, or a salad. Same prep, completely different meal.

I don't try to meal prep my entire week anymore. I usually prepare enough for the next three or four days, see how my schedule looks, then do another quick prep. It keeps the food fresher and gives me more flexibility if plans change.

I’ve realized consistency is more important than having a perfect meal plan. If I know I have protein, carbs, veggies, and a couple easy snacks ready to go, I’m much less likely to hit the drive-thru after lifting.

Sunday prep works best for me. I’ll spend about an hour cooking and portioning everything, then I barely have to think about food during the workweek.
