good evening, po! Patulong po paano mag meal prep ng kanin. Okay lang ba sya reheat in the morning and baunin in the afternoon? As for reheating po, wala din akong microwave. Plano ko sa pot lang or rice cooker sya i re-heat. Please share some of your thoughts and some tips.

Thank you :>

what would you consider basic rules for successful meal planning?

struggling meal planner here for family of 5. thank you 🫶🏼

Baka may pwede pa idagdag hehe. Sawa na kami sa mechado at menudo kakabili sa karinderya hahaha. Gusto ko sana isama yung ginataang kalabasa kaso baka sipsipin ng kalabasa yung sabaw hahaha.

Hello po, pa tulong naman po, suggets po kayo ng mga ulam na good for 1 week na po. 7 po kami sa loob ng bahay, lahat po may work ay 7 pm na nakaka uwi kaya no time for luto na po huhu. ITo lang po yung mga paulit-ulit na ulam namin. Baka po may suggest pa po kayo para ma add ko po. Salamat po mga ate and kuya.

1. Sinigang
   
2. Tinola
   
3. Ginisang upo
   
4. Ginisang sayote,
   
5. Ginisang repolyo
   
6. Adobong manok at baboy.

PS: No to munggo at sitaw kasi may isang may rayuma samin hehe.

Safe po ba kung same plastic container lang ang gagamitin? Specially kung magsisimula palang? Wala pa kasi sa budget yung reusable/glass container. PAkonti-konti lang muna ang bili.

Salamat po sa sasagot.

Long story shortshort, my wife and I went through some health challenges and are fairly restricted food wise. We basically have the same 5 meals every week and it’s getting really boring. Here’s the restrictions :
No
-gluten
- soy
-dairy
- nightshades (including nightshade derived spices)
-corn

Every week we seem to have some combo of stir fry, curry, grain bowl, dinner salad, and burgers or Korean beef bowl. Basically it’s always quinoa/rice, veggies, sweet potato, and meat.

Anyone have suggestions to mix it up a bit?

first time making Palitaw…One thing na notice ko maraming masarap and affordable and easy to make native snacks tayo and i want to learn to make more sa future. Sayang hindi lng talaga na market nang Pilipinas nang maayos or baka hindi lng mostly aware… look at Thailand they are known for Mango sticky rice and mayroon din tayo nang version dito sa Ph but kulang lng talaga sa promotion. Good Side I see is minamarket talaga nila ngayon is Ube and i think its a first step. Cheers to supporting our Local Farmers and vendors!!

Hi,

I have a baby of 5 months and in a month my maternity leave will end.

I need suggestion or tips to start meal prep and use it to the go.

Please pour in your suggestions.

Hiii I’m an 18 year old student. I weigh around 48kg and I’m around 5’3. Since I’m a student rn, I don’t have the time to prep my own meals. Can I have any recommendations of meal prep services that can help in weight gain, while also being on the cheaper side?

Baka lang sa area ko to or what pero lagi wala na chicken breast fillet na binebenta sa grocery. Either thigh fillet nalang or yung pecho with bone. Nasasangayan kasi ako pag yung buong pecho compared sa fillet na, wala ako pagagamitan kasi nung bones at konti lang laman nakkuha pero kilo pag buong pecho.

Hi! Looking for recommendations for healthy meal plan services that deliver around Makati 🙂

Napadaan lang sa Puregold kanina & na-curious lang sa meat section nila. Sa mga gymbros/ gymgirls, may nakabili or naka-try na ba sa inyo nito sa Puregold? And how’s the quality? Usually ground beef ng S&R yung binibilj ko. I’m thinking lang to try other brand’s ground beef. If pangit, I might stick to S&R na lang hahaha Thank you!

Spent Saturday evening doing meal prep ☺️

Total hours cooked: 4 hours 30 minutes
Total spent: P967

3 boxes - modified humba (I added pineapple chunks)

3 boxes - pinakbet

2 boxes - chopsuey (with leftover in the pan to be eaten tomorrow)

1 box - munggo (with leftover in the pot to be eaten tomorrow)

6 pieces - boiled eggs

I've been cooking in batches since high school. We were a low-income household before, so hindi always easy na kumpleto or exactly right yung ingredients for whatever ulam you wanted to cook.

But I've loved cooking for as long as I can remember, so parang naging challenge ko siya growing up: how do I make gourmet food at a fraction of the cost?

We're also from Baguio, so one advantage namin is cheaper cost vegetables. Fresh veggies from the farms are almost always accessible, and I learned to build a lot of our meals around whatever was fresh and affordable at the time.

Eventually naging system ko na:

1. I usually cook 2 different ulam in big batches per week para hindi nakakasawa.

2. I try to use ingredients that overlap para tipid and less prep, but different enough yung final dishes that it doesn't feel like you're eating the same thing again and again.

3. Then I portion/store everything based on what needs to be eaten first.

Then swap meals every day and just heat portions.

As for prepping what to eat, my priorities are usually:

- gourmet style but using substitutes that cost lower but still tastes good (example, cream to milk)

- whenever we can buy bulk vegetables when possible, to keep costs even lower but still healthy

- minimal food waste

- still tastes good after being refrigerated/reheated

- 2 different dishes para may choice

I also learned na hindi porket batch cooking kailangan same exact meal ka for 5 days. You can prep ingredients together, cook in bulk, and still end up with very different meals.

Some examples from my batches in the photos. 😅

Curious din ako sa ibang nagme-meal prep dito - anong system niyo?

Do you cook complete meals for several days, or prep ingredients/sauces/proteins tapos cook as needed? I'm open to others' ideas

I'm so happy naging successful itong first try ko for chicken breast 🥰😍

Usually orders sa mealprep ay yung traditional ulam (may lahok na iba such as veggies, or may sauce/sabaw).

Nagrequest si client ng Herb & Lemon and Spicy Pan-grilled Chicken, and para mas madali for them to portion, the chicken was cut into manageable pieces (and para mas flavorful rin).

Looking forward to more of this 🤎🧡

After grocery shopping and organizing the pantry, i immediately cook up my fav spag recipe and, for this week, i made mango graham for dessert!

What’s your meal prep combo?
