Even if you're eating straight out of the Tupperware, agrodolce — a sweet and sour Italian condiment — can make any meal feel decadent. It'll pair nicely with whatever vegetables you choose to mix into your couscous. Get the recipe here.
Stuffed peppers are a meal prep staple. From rice and beans to meat and cheese, there are basically no limits to the variations you can make with this classic. Mushroom and tofu, however, is a high-protein vegan option that couldn't be easier to put together. Get the recipe here.

If lentil balls don't take your fancy, try rolling up, baking, and freezing a sheet of turkey meatballs.

Get the recipe here.
These teriyaki bowls are super simple to throw together on one of those Sundays where you don't have the energy for a full-fledged recipe. Just boil some rice, steam some broccoli, and sauté some chicken covered in cornstarch and teriyaki sauce. Get the recipe here.

These are an essential element of your prep if you have trouble getting yourself to eat breakfast every morning. Freeze a bunch so you can pop them in the toaster oven while you're getting dressed. Get the recipe here.
Chicken breasts can get a little boring if you don't mix up the flavors every once in a while. In the mood for something light and herby this week? Try out this rosemary citrus chicken.

With stacks of quinoa, cucumbers, tomatoes, feta cheese, and a lemony dressing, this salad is lovely any time of year. Pack your protein (grilled shrimp, chicken, chickpeas — you name it) separately and mix it in when you're ready to eat! Get the recipe here.
This is a more involved recipe than the others, but the payoff is totally worth it. Cauliflower rice sautéed with hummus, vegan parmesan, baby spinach, lemon juice, and Italian seasoning makes the perfect filling for these eggplant rollups. Get the recipe here.
