From DWP Advice for Decision-Makers, Chapter P2: Assessment for PIP:
Definition of a simple meal: "A cooked one-course meal for one using fresh ingredients".
Preparing food: "...assesses ability to open packaging, peel and chop, serve food on to a plate and use a microwave oven or cooker hob to cook or heat food."
Ready-meals and other convenience foods don't count. Some welfare rights guides say that pre-chopped veggies should be regarded as an aid.1
