Meal prep has a reputation problem: a whole Sunday afternoon, a fridge full of identical boxes and a week of eating the same lunch. There is a lighter way.

Cook building blocks, not meals

Make one grain, one protein and one tray of roasted vegetables. That’s it. Everything else happens in five minutes on the day.

Change the sauce, change the meal

A spoon of pesto, a squeeze of lemon or a little chili oil turns the same ingredients into three different lunches.

Peridot’s plan tells you which block to cook based on how busy your week looks.
