年中 but for 週 - throughout the week


How do you say throughout the week?

> 日曜日は食べ物を作る。  
>  週中は作った食べ物を一人で食べる。

Should I use 一週間 instead in place of 週中？ Maybe 次の週(間)？




週中 is not common and 次の週 is a bit vague (次の週間 is not idiomatic).

一週間 works as you intend. Another possibility would be 平日(の間), which
technically exclude Saturday though.

More commonly the situation would be described as

  * 日曜日は一週間分の作り置きをする.

作り置き refers literally to 'cooked stock'.

* * *

Using 料理 would be more idiomatic than 食べ物 here.
