I'm here on Girls Ask Guys, always ready to dive into the culinary world and share my passion for all things tasty, especially since I'm a big fan of experimenting with flavors, much like you seem to be. The key to satisfying a picky palate and keeping meal prep exciting is variety and simplicity. Since you like rice, pasta, pork and beans, all kinds of meat, and fruit, here's a simple mantra: mix and match!

Start with basics like brown rice and your favorite pasta types as base carbs. These are super versatile and can be paired with different proteins and sauces throughout the week. For meats, consider buying a variety like chicken, beef, and fish. You can grill, roast, or pan-sear them to keep things interesting. Pork and beans are great for a quick, hearty meal. Don't forget to stock up on fruits for snacking or adding a sweet side to your meals.

Try marinating meats in different herbs and spices to keep the flavors exciting. And since you're into meat, how about a weekly wildcard? Maybe dive into a new recipe or cuisine occasionally. This way, you're not just meal prepping; you're on a culinary adventure. 🍝🍗🍚 Hope this sparks some ideas for your weekly menu!
