When to use it
Reach for Sunday meal prep when you want to make a post people save and come back to and teach your audience something they can use straight away. Its structure is tutorial: a task, broken into steps you can follow. Give Postora your topic and it keeps the shape, writing every slide about your subject in your voice.
What each slide does
1Hook
Opening: the time it takes and what it covers, over a photo of the boxes.
In the example
One Sunday, a week of lunches sorted
2 hours · 5 lunches
Cook three things, mix them five ways.
2List
The shopping list, with quantities.
In the example
For five lunches
Shopping list
- 1 kg chicken thighs or firm tofu
- 500 g brown rice
- 2 trays of mixed vegetables
- 1 bag of spinach
- Feta, lemons and a jar of pesto
- Half a dozen eggs
3Steps
The cooking order, by the clock, so things overlap.
In the example
The order matters
- 0:00 Oven on — Vegetables and chicken in together, 40 minutes.
- 0:10 Rice on — It simmers while the oven works.
- 0:20 Eggs — Eight minutes, then cold water.
- 0:45 Cool and box — Everything cool before the lids go on.
4Comparison
What five lunches cost, prepped or bought (author-provided).

5List
Five ways to mix the same base, one per day.
In the example
One base, five lunches
Mix and match
- Monday — Rice, chicken and pesto.
- Tuesday — Spinach, egg and feta.
- Wednesday — Roast veg with lemon.
- Thursday — A bowl with a bit of everything.
- Friday — Leftovers in a wrap.
6Point
The tip that keeps the boxes good until Friday.
In the example
Dress it on the day
Keep it fresh
Keep pesto and lemon in a little pot so nothing goes soggy by Thursday.
