Alice Springs is a city/town in Australia. Alice Springs Chicken is a meal at Outback Steak House. ❤ I will be using many of these meal preps at my house! They look really tasty! Thank you. Love from Texas ❤

Off topic but wanted to let you know I made your Dry Rub BBQ chicken and loved it! Definitely going into our rotation as chicken is our go to protein. I also made the "chik fila" sandwiches with the mega chicken fillets /Banquet. Excellent! I could actually eat two I loved them so much but I only eat one! Appreciate you Rebecca! Hi from SC.😎🩷🏝️✌️

For the cheeseb urger bowls, I would keep the "toppings" separate. Use a little cup for the tomato, onion, and pickle so you're not heating those up when you microwave the bowl. That way the beef and potatoes and cheese are hot, but you're not having to eat hot tomato and pickles.

As a fellow quartz countertop haver, I recommend using trivets for anything hot, especially pans. Since quartz countertops are a manmade mixture of stone and resin (only safe to ~300F), they can expand/pop/crack with a major temperature change.

My husband and I I use our food by end of a week, no issues ever!! We air fry some of the leftovers if we need/want crispier consistency ❤

I found some ready to microwave small potatoes at my grocery store. It is an Albertsons’ store brand. They are the creamiest potatoes ever. They come with a seasoning packet which I don’t always use. Microwave 7 minutes and 2 minutes later they are ready to eat. I use them in soups and casseroles.

I need to try that spinach feta wrap, the one from Starbucks is so small now

Current Starbucks employee here.... I highly recommend that you use a toaster oven or air fryer to heat or reheat any of their sandwiches, wraps or pastries. It makes a huge difference. Also, you can always ask to buy their food unheated and left in the wrapper so that you can take it home and prepare it later.

Great ideas! We switched to glass and reheat stuff in our Instant Pot and Air Fryer. I find we get much better results and the stuff that is supposed to be crispy recrisps well in the air fryer.
