As someone with ADHD who procrastinates on getting food until I forget, having meals pre-prepped in advance is a great way to ensure I’m eating consistently
Prepped food is generally fine for a week in the fridge. I spent $200k on a bachelor's degree to tell you this
Been using your recipes for about 3-4 months now. I used to only do broccoli, rice, chicken because it was easy. Your recipes make it much better for only putting in a little bit more money, time, but with easy directions and simple cooking, it pays off. It's no longer boring food! Thanks so much!
To anyone on the fence: this site has made meal prep for me a breeze. A big reason I always had trouble was that my meals always tasted like ass and I didn’t look forward to them. Now they all taste good and I genuinely look forward to them, boosting my adherence.
I've done meal prepping for years. Everything here is spot on. For meals involving rice, I don't package them like you do. Instead I put the protein and veggies on the bottom of the container, then spread the rice on top. It helps when reheating to not just have a block of condensed rice. Also when reheating the rice, I will place a damp paper towel (soak a paper towel then wring out the excess water) on top of the rice. It will revive the rice to like-new 100% of the time! Total game changer for me!
16 minute video and not a single wasted word
Thank you. My big take away. It is so refreshing to have a young adult that is articulate, well prepared, and organized in his presentation. Not to mention on point about meal prepping.
If you absolutely hate having the same thing everyday you could make a meal with a carb you like, veggies you like, and a protein you like with basic salt and pepper. Then use different sauces or toppings to change the meal. Like Chicken and rice would easily be bbq chicken, spicy chicken, honey mustard, etc.
I’ve been using your meal prep recipes for about 5 months and I’ve lost 15 lbs. I just bought your gold annual subscription and looking forward to more meal prepping. I’m now training for a marathon and the nutritional benefits from your recipes has been a game changer for me. Keep up the good work and Happy 2023!
Also a way to freeze your food, is to vacuum seal it in a bag. Especially soups work perfect. Once the bag is sealed, lay it flat into your freezer and then you get a frozen plate. I store my soups in the freezer this way, like in a record shelf. So when people come over you just pull out a pumpkin soup like a DJ
"I gotta watch the Dolphins lose every week." Same bro. The struggle is real
I’m a vegetarian so your recipes usually aren’t for me, but your channel has been GREAT as a single mom cooking for my kid. This was equally as helpful. I don’t always have time to cook, sometimes I work past dinner and bedtime. I still want her to eat more than just pizza rolls. So thank you.
For reheating rice or noodles I spritz with water and cover the plate/bowl with a damp cloth to create steam.
"I have to watch the Dolphins lose every week" *in a serious tone* - I died laughing
I freeze a lot of my meals and cook in really big batches. So I've got stacks off different meals so I have a decent amount of variety. So for anybody that needs to mix it up, I recommend cooking 2 meals per week and spreading them out over the month. Hope that helps!

Dude you're a lifesaver. I've been trying to change my eating habits and exercising for the last ten years and always ended up back in the obese range. This year I just decided to do ONE THING (lose weight) and STICK TO IT until I reached my goal (110 lbs). I've always known about you and your website but decided to bite the bullet and purchase a monthly sub to get your recipes. It's been three weeks (started with Buffalo Chicken bowl one week. Last week was Beef Stew. This week is your Hamburger helper) and I lost 10 lbs. I did practice fasting this week (Mon-Wed) so that contributed to the weight loss but I started seeing real results, and I'm finally sticking to it! It's great!
This dude spit fire. No bullshit, no filler words, straight mfing bars.
My family has used exclusively wooden cutting boards for everything for the last 25+ years. Vegetables, spices, fish, beef, pork, chicken... never gotten sick a single time from that food. Just wash with a bit of soap and hot water.
