India

Home cooking: ₹50-100/meal। Outside: ₹100-300+। Tiffin service: ₹3,000-5,000/month (Indian unique!)। Sunday prep for week: saves 5-8 hours + ₹3,000-6,000/month vs eating out। Roti-sabzi-dal-rice: naturally meal-preppable Indian diet!।

Indian Meal Prep

Dal: freeze in portions। Roti: fridge 3-4 days। Sabzi: 2-3 days fridge। Rice: cook fresh (reheated rice = resistant starch = actually healthier!)।

⚡ CalcWolf Insight

The #1 meal prep failure reason is boredom — eating the same chicken-rice-broccoli for 5 days straight. The fix: prep 2-3 different proteins and 3-4 different sauces/seasonings. Same base ingredients, completely different flavors each day. Variety prevents burnout without adding significant prep time.
