Prep-ahead tips

  • Cook a pot of rice on Sunday for Tuesday’s fried rice — cold, day-old rice fries best.
  • Slice the peppers and red onion for Thursday’s gnocchi and keep them in a covered container in the fridge.
  • Make the peanut sauce for Wednesday in advance; it keeps in the fridge for a few days.
  • Chop the garlic for the chicken and pasta together and store it covered in the fridge.
