Terrific ideas. I really like variety too, so this is much better than making five identical meals for the week. I look forward to more of your ideas. Thanks again.

One of the best cooking videos on youtube i've seen in years. Shame that i've spotted this channel only in 2024. Everything is so collected, organized, and beautifully shot... Hats off and big fat subscription from me.

Your method for meal prepping is very efficient, well organized and appears to be super delectable. Your presentation is also extremely beautiful. Job well done hon. God bless!

Quick note on the boiled eggs - keep the shell. If you don't it's recommended to eat them the same day. With the shell, they can last up to 7 days in the fridge!

Tip of The Day: When raking food off the cutting board or any other surface, use the BLUNT edge of the knife -- it will keep your knives sharper longer! Thanks for the prep ideas!!!

This is awesome, you've given me more inspiration!! NICE STOVE!!!! I've been a single widow since 2019.. Its taken a while for me to accept and adjust to this. The last few months Ive basically been doing this. The thing I love about it is I know that I'm going to be eating healthy and not be tempted with those unhealthy snacks. For a dessert I've been making chia seed dessert and to add extra flavour I blend a fruit with the almond or coconut milk prior to adding the chia seeds

THIS is exactly what I needed. I'm tired of being told to eat the same meal 3-5x a week. That's lazy. . Your method is clever, economical and easy. We all have favorite flavor profiles we tend to use but, vary seasonal produce , proteins and heartier or lighter cuisine as temps change. Thank you for giving people a simple and practical way to plan, prep and cook for the week. Please continue. I'd like to learn more Mediterranean, Clean and Plant based meal ideas.

This makes more sense to me than any of the other meal prep concepts I've looked at before.

I did not realize it was so easy to make almond butter! Going to try this, definitely, but will probably substitute the almond slivers with pumpkin seeds or something on top since there is already almond butter on the banana. Another great bfast option for the roasted veggies, with uncooked eggies, is to make an omelet with prepped veggies for the week.
