This time of year always takes me back to my mom’s kitchen. I can still picture myself sitting on the counter while she baked pies. The air warm with cinnamon, butter sizzling in the pan, the kind of simple moment that stays with you.

Now, when I meal prep, I try to capture that same feeling. Not just filling containers, but creating little anchors for the week: a donut tucked in the fridge, a casserole bubbling in the oven, a snack bite between errands. These aren’t just recipes… they’re small comforts that make the week easier.

And if you’re new around here, here is what you can expect to see in the weekly stacks!

This stack is bakery-case nostalgia meets one-pan dinners. Apple pie donuts, brown sugar pop-tarts, candy-bar protein bars, salty-sweet pretzel bites, and two dump-and-bake casseroles. High in protein, family-friendly, and cozy enough to look forward to.
