Each point is a seven-day rolling window of complete UTC days; a point is comparable only when at least 100 analyzed posts or comments fall inside it. A day with no analyzed records counts as zero; missing coverage is marked and never shown as zero. The series ends at the latest complete analyzed day — it never extends into the current incomplete day. How attention is measured.

    Get the microwave, hands down. For meal prep reheating it's the most practical thing you can own — most prepped meals reheat in 2-3 minutes. Air fryers are great but they're slower for reheating full meals and you can only fit small portions. As a student you'll use the microwave every single day. For veggies going bad — the biggest mistake is storing them pre-chopped in regular containers. Moisture builds up and they rot fast. Either: (1) store them whole and chop on prep day, or (2) if you do pre-chop, put a dry paper towel in the container to absorb moisture. Hardier veggies (carrots, broccoli, bell peppers) last 5-7 days stored right. Leafy greens go bad fastest — keep those separate and eat them first. Easy starter recipes for your situation: - Chicken and rice bowls (cook a batch of chicken, make extra rice, portion into containers with whatever sauce you like) - Chickpea curry over rice (one pot, freezes great, cheap ingredients) - Pasta with roasted veggies (roast a tray of whatever veggies are cheap, toss with pasta and olive oil) The whole point of meal prep is that the cooking time is front-loaded. Spend 90 minutes on Sunday, eat for 4-5 days. The microwave makes the "heat and eat" part actually fast.

    Microwave for proper heating. Meal prep: egg bites, ground chicken in soy sauce and garlic or Indian keema masala or just ground chicken curry, Pasta, bean patty ( boil beans and mash, add veggies and shape and freeze, when you want to eat throw from freezer to hot skillet and enjoy!

    Personally, I might store the sauce and pasta separately, and then maybe even freeze sauce for day 3, 4, 5 in the freezer. Then defrost in the refrigerator one day before I eat it (and then reheat in the microwave, mix together). I like to use my freezer for short term freezing too! It helps to stretch out the lifespan of everything and I personally prefer it because I can make a big batch of something and then divide it so that I am not eating the same flavors all the time. I can switch it up more easily.

    I just freeze everything then take it out as needed. Need to be especially careful with rice and pasta over the deadly bacteria that cooking doesn't kill. I make half a batch of rice and store the other half in the freezer just to be safe. Same with pasta dishes or eat them up by the next day in the fridge. if you're going to do the meal prepping, good to look up health code information so you don't get yourself in the hospital. I used to work in a restaurant so I had to take the health code test after reading the booklet. Probably good for everyone to study up on to make sure you stay safe and your family eating your meals.
