Meal planning notes
- Prepare the base ahead of time and portion it before adding fresh toppings.
- Keep sauce separate until serving so the texture stays fresher.
- Use the same structure with a different protein later in the week.
Substitutions
- Swap the protein for tofu, chicken, salmon, turkey, or beans based on preference.
- Use cauliflower rice or extra greens when you want a lower-carb version.
- Change the sauce to vary flavor without changing the full recipe.
Storage and reheating
