What is the Lego-system method for meal prep?

The Lego-system is a modular cooking framework where you prepare a set of base components once — proteins, grains, vegetables, sauces — and then assemble them into 9 different meals throughout the week. Each component is a "Lego brick" that combines with others, eliminating repetitive cooking and reducing total time to under 2 hours.

How long do the components for Mealprep 7 stay fresh?

Cooked grains and proteins keep for 4–5 days refrigerated in airtight containers. Dressed salads and sauces last 3–4 days. We recommend completing all meals within the prep window shown in the app.

How many different meals can I make from Mealprep 7?

Mealprep 7 yields 9 different dishes across 3 days for 2 servings each. The components are designed to combine in multiple configurations so no two meals taste the same.

How is parallel cooking different from traditional batch cooking?

Traditional batch cooking runs tasks sequentially. Parallel cooking — the method used in Mealpreper Guide — schedules tasks simultaneously across your stovetop burners and oven. The Gantt-style timeline in the app coordinates every step so you finish a full week of components in the minimum possible time.

Do I need special equipment for this modular meal prep system?

No special equipment is required. The system is designed for a standard home kitchen: 2–3 pots or pans, a cutting board, and basic containers for storage. The Mealpreper Guide app provides the exact shopping list and parallel-cook schedule.

"A bit tricky that everything's on the stovetop - for someone like me with only two pots, cooking took longer🥲 but that's probably just how this meal prep is. I also had leftover bulgur because I wasn't sure what to do with it. Only later did I notice the bowl recipe said rice, but the ingredients listed bulgur. Still, everything turned out really tasty, as always❤️ "

"Thank you, everything was very tasty. Personally I liked the soup the most (I made it with chicken cooked in broth instead of meatballs) and the tomato sauce 😍 for the pasta. But overall all the dishes are tasty and the cooking process is clear. As for what could be improved - I'd love a video showing what the dishes look like once cooked, their texture and appearance. And it would be nice to hear your voice with explanations :) in that sense your YouTube videos feel clearer and more informative. But even without that I'm very happy with both the result and the cooking process with you. Subscribed to Pro, moving forward :) "

"The dishes are very tasty, the prep concept is top notch. I swapped brown rice for regular and skipped the parsley and chickpeas since I don't like the taste. The portions are bigger than I'm used to eating, so this prep lasted more than 3 days. There were also a few leftover ingredients after making all the dishes. I really loved the sauces, especially the Asian one, managed to get that Asian cuisine flavor at home that I love)"
