Low-carb batch cooking

[Suomynona]

Me and my husband are following the Fast 800 keto plan. It's basically low-carb, but not actually keto (essentially protein and lots of veg, roughly 800 calories per day). Do you have any interesting ideas for batch cooking please? My well of inspiration is running pretty dry at the moment! I usually cook from scratch every day, but it would be really handy for days when I go to the office to just pull something out of the freezer. Thanks!

One of my colleagues marinates lots of chicken and freezes. Then for a quick meal he puts chicken in air fryer and serves with salad. He uses lots of different marinades for variety.

Chicken and veg stir fry. And mince with peppers and onions etc for taco bowls. Serve with sour cream and avocado.

For ideas take a look at these two channels on youtube; Laura Spath and Ketogenic Women.

I'm not low carb these days but I used to make egg muffins that froze well and made an easy grab and go breakfast/lunch.

Soups and ratatouille are my batch-cooking staples. I always have some portions of these in the freezer.

I didn't know you could cook chicken from frozen in the airfryer, that's good to know!

Oh no, maybe he doesn’t do it from frozen! Best check that before you poison someone!
