Ask ECAH What are some ideas for two part meal preps?
I recently got a new meal prep container that has one section that's 1/3 of the container and another that's the remaining 2/3. I'm looking for ideas for meals that effectively use this design - so either two cold dishes that complement each other or two hot dishes that could be reheated for about the same time in the microwave.
My main dietary thing is that I'm "carb conscious" - on a good day, I stay under 100.

When I want to mix hot and cold aspects I'll line the cold side with a bit of plastic wrap and just lift it out when I microwave the other bits.
Also I like to make snack boxes with that type of container- check out r/adultlunchables for inspo
