01
Your shopping
What do I need to buy?
Your meals become the shopping list.
Your Pantry records the foods and brands you like to use. Your shopping list brings together the quantities your planned meals need. Check what you already have before you shop.
The meals built around you bring their ingredients and quantities together in one shopping list. Review the products and amounts before you head out, without adding up every recipe yourself.
Shop for the week without adding up every recipe.
Your way to cook
How do you want to cook this week?
Choose to cook fresh or prepare ahead. Your meals and cooking directions reflect that choice.
Prepare ahead
The preparation plan brings the cooking, portions and storage steps together. Follow the batch from ingredients to meals ready for later.
The steps below show the prepare-ahead route, from your cooking session to the finishing touches.
02
Your cooking
Where do I start in the kitchen?
Your preparation session, step by step.
See which meals you are making, how long the session should take and the order to follow. Gather your ingredients, cook the batch, then pack and store each meal. The app keeps the steps together so you can follow along as you cook.
Know what to do next, from gathering ingredients to putting meals away.
03
Your assembly
How do I turn the batch into my meals?
Pack each meal with its portions worked out.
Assembly instructions show the portions for each meal and the day it belongs to. Pack the components to reheat together, and keep the cold additions and finishing ingredients separate where instructed.
From a cooked batch to individual meals, with the portions worked out.
Ready for later
Cooked and packed.
Ready when you need it.
04
Chill or freeze
Which meals go where?
Know what stays chilled. Know what to freeze.
Each prepared meal has a storage destination and use-by information. Follow its cooling and packing instructions, refrigerate the meals due soon and freeze the portions planned for later. Rice has a shorter chilled storage window.
The plan carries each meal beyond the cooking session.
05
Ready for tomorrow
When should I take it out of the freezer?
Know what tomorrow’s meal needs today.
A reminder in your day tells you when to move the planned meal from freezer to fridge. Follow that time so it has time to defrost before you need it. Overnight preparation, such as soaking oats, also has a place in the day.
Get the food ready before tomorrow gets busy.
06
Ready to eat
What do I do when it is time to eat?
Reheat. Add the finishing touches. Eat.
Open the meal for its final steps: which components to reheat, what to add afterwards and how to finish the dish. Follow the meal’s reheating instructions so the food is steaming hot throughout; prepared food should only be reheated once.
Your meal comes with the last steps as well as the first.
Storage guidance built into the plan.
Is this personalised to me?
Yes. Your shopping list and preparation plan come from your planned meals and portions. What you need to buy, cook, store and get ready follows the week built around your training and food choices.
See how your food plan becomes meals →KEXBI’s preparation rules draw on Food Standards Agency guidance for cooling, chilled storage, freezing, defrosting and reheating, including the shorter limits for cooked rice.
Read the food-safety guidance
Cool and refrigerate cooked food within one to two hours. Eat refrigerated leftovers within 48 hours or freeze them. Cool rice as quickly as possible, ideally within one hour, and keep it refrigerated for no more than 24 hours before reheating. Defrost in the fridge and use within 24 hours of fully defrosting. Reheat only once, until steaming hot throughout.
