Cultural Tip
Meal‑prep has become a staple in German fitness and sustainability circles, especially among the growing plant‑based community. While 'Meal‑Prep' is widely understood, you can also use the native term 'Vorrat kochen' or 'Vorkochen' for a more German‑speaking audience. Remember that German speakers often appreciate concrete portion sizes and storage tips (e.g., 'in luftdichten Behältern im Kühlschrank').
