Don Tillman’s Standardized Meal System

‘So, you cook this same meal every Tuesday, right?’


‘Correct.’ I listed the eight major advantages of the Standardised Meal System.


1. No need to accumulate recipe books.


2. Standard shopping list—hence very efficient shopping.


3. Almost zero waste—nothing in the refrigerator or pantry unless required for one of the recipes.


4. Diet planned and nutritionally balanced in advance.


5. No time wasted wondering what to cook.


6. No mistakes, no unpleasant surprises.


7. Excellent food, superior to most restaurants at a much lower price (see point 3).


8. Minimal cognitive load required.


‘Cognitive load?’


‘The cooking procedures are in my cerebellum—virtually no conscious effort is required.’


‘Like riding a bike.’


‘Correct.’
