Meal Prep Scaling Tips

Chicken Gravy
Cook a larger batch. Store in airtight containers in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Tofu & Eggs
Keep separate or prepare in smaller portions. Add to the gravy when serving to keep textures fresh.

Prepped chicken gravy can be used in :
Stir-fries with vegetables or rice, noodle bowls, wraps or lettuce cups, omelettes or scrambled eggs.

Adjust seasoning proportionally when scaling
Doubling the chicken = double soy, fish, and slurry.
