One prep session, several easier dinners.
Choose how many portions you need and where they belong. FeastCal connects the batch, basket, storage and the evenings each portion is meant to cover.
Batch plans can forget the week.
Six identical portions are not useful if only three fit the schedule, storage or willingness to eat the same thing again.
- 6 identical tubs
- No dates
- No place in the week
Give every portion a job.
Plan the batch against real calendar gaps, vary what needs varying and keep storage or reheating notes with each portion.
- Mon after gym
- Wed late shift
- Fri freezer backup
Shape the batch around the week.
- The recipe scales without checking demand → Portion count follows calendar gaps
- Containers become anonymous → Meal, date and reheating stay attached
- Leftovers compete with new plans → Prepared portions rank first when useful
One prep block, easier evenings.
- Find the week’s gaps
- Choose the right batch size
- Assign each portion
- Shop and prep once
