Food safety: temperature is the test
Suggested cook times help with sequencing, but they do not prove safety. Use a food thermometer: whole cuts of beef, pork, lamb and seafood 145°F / 63°C (whole meat rests 3 minutes); ground meat 160°F / 71°C; poultry and leftovers 165°F / 74°C. Keep raw-food utensils separate.
How portions are calculated
Normal appetite starts at 160 g meat/seafood, 180 g vegetables, 75 g tofu and 65 g dry starch per person, aligned with our Shopping List Guide ranges. Light uses 0.8× and Hearty uses 1.25×. Vegetarian and vegan plans replace the protein allocation with extra vegetables and mushrooms.
