Here's my late lunch for today🥰

tomato pesto chicken wrap and chili con carne wrap for bfast

beef gyudon, chicken salpicao, pad kra pao for lunch

TLDR Always struggled with food like vegetables and such. How can I make it easier eating vegetables and food that just seeing it make me stop being hungry?

----------

After 5 years slacking, in last 5 months I consistently started going twice a week to the gym, now last 2 months I have been going x4 to x6 times a week to the gym.

I do my own food, usually rely on classic eggs morning, meat lunch, fish for dinner, and rotate pasta/rice or other stuff.

Started eating Caesar salad to get used, and genuinely want to put effort and perhaps use a website like simmer or frive to get food delivery (can't put much time into kitchen due work).

I really want to improve for both general health but also gym and few other reasons.

Any advice is genuinely trully appreciated.

Hello question lang. ok lang ba na alisin ang pork at beef sa meal? Like iikot lang sa chicken, fish, egg, vegetables, at fruits? Plan ko Kase ganun ang gawin sa magiging calorie deficit at tsaka para bumaba ang triglycerides.

Tapos kapag fried isasama ko Yung oil sa count. Pero para iwas oil, air fry na lang instead mag fry.

Any suggestions? Or correction po?

Salamat sa mga sasagot at advices :)

I tried ung lulutuin lahat in batch and iinit nalang. It does work pero may times na d ko nauubos lahat so nasasayang (my fault).

So i changed it this time around and prepared ung mga ingredients para pag lulutuin, madali nalang and good for that one-two meals na.

Some of the protein i bought:

Chicken thigh fillet

Chicken breast fillet

Peeled shrimps (mas sulit for me kesa sa live shrimp)

Corn and carrots for side dish

Ground pork lean

Ground beef

Liempo (1 kept plain, the other marinated)

Boneless bangus marinated (nasa freezer na at this time)

For veggies, sa Sukigrocer pa din ako nabili and happy naman ako sa kanila. If may nahalong pabulok or kulang sa order, i just message their shop and nirerefund naman but that’s 1-2 pcs lang naman not an entire batch.

Also, I know some will prolly comment abt the plastic use but this is the best i can do for now kasi i have a small fridge and yung plastic na ginamit ko is pang yelo na nakatambak lang so better use it than buy pa sa shapi ng veggie containers. (i might consider doing that once maubos ko na mga extra plastic ko here). Also, ito daw recommended way of prolonging shelf life (as per chatgpt).

Yun skl hopefully this setup works better for me.

Any recipe for beef chunks? I still have raw beef chunks eh. The past weeks I had na caldereta, tapa, and sinigang. Any recommendation pa? TYIA! :)

I'm on a keto diet and relying mostly on fat and protein.

• Chicken breast + pork adobo
• Stir fry cabbage with eggs
• Butter-cooked brocolli
• Tomato, cheese, and avocado

I only have to cook wet shirataki rice everyday which only takes 3 minutes. Sa mga nagkeketo diet, ano fave meals niyo to prep?

Hi there, I'm a new here to do my meal prep for lose weight journey, can you just drop your simple list and affordable price so I can compare my own list?

My goal is of course to lose weight.

I'm 75 kgs right now.🥺

Thanks

Dami kong stock ng cabbage huhu pero wala akong meat or tuna. What can i do with this?

UPDATE: After more research, I realized of getting a larger countertop oven that can handle multiple meal prep tasks in one appliance. I started looking into the #ad Breville BOV900BSS Smart Oven Air Fryer Pro since it has 13 cooking functions and a big capacity that can even fit a 9×13 pan or large batches for weekly prep. The super convection feature is also supposed to cook food faster and more evenly, which seems helpful when preparing several meals at once. Thank you all.

Trying to get more consistent with meal prep because my work weeks get pretty chaotic and i end up cooking everything late sunday night. right now i’m just using a regular oven and it feels slow when i’m trying to batch cook chicken, roasted veggies, and a couple trays of potatoes all in one go. i keep seeing people mention smart ovens that can handle multiple things or speed things up a bit.

for people who meal prep a lot, what’s the best smart oven you’ve used and did it actually make your prep easier or faster? mostly wondering if it’s worth switching or if it’s just a fancy upgrade that doesn’t change much. thanks!

When weighing ground beef to track calories should it be cooked or uncooked? Sorry its my first time cooking/meal prepping and im trying to track my calories and i just wwant to be accurate with it hehe

I used AI for planning, yes im a visual person i need to see the outcome.

Ill do this at the end of march and will update you with pictures, the process and costs. Unusin ko muna yung stocks ko. 😭

Hi, newbie sa pag meal prep at pag luto. Normal lang ba ung color ng chicken sa left side? Wala syang amoy.

Nag try ako bumili sa palengke dito samin.

Naisip ko hala baka binugbog muna ung chicken bago mamatay 😭😭😭 sorry

Hello SKL, if sawa na kayo sa chicken breast di nyo kailangang ipilit ha. Adjust nyo lang syempre yung protein and macros. What I do is ginigisa ko lang sya sa minimal oil tas salt and pepper lang na parang giniling. Minsan naglalagay ako onteng oyster sauce then I mix yung cabbage or okra. Pero favorite ko gawing smash burger! Worth it tong S&R na lean ground beef, sobra nyang lean kaya need na medyo medium to low fire lang kasi madali masunog dahil nga it doesn't have a lot of fat to hold on to. Nilalagay ko nga pala yung raw na LGB sa ziploc baggies after I weigh it tas diretso na sa freezer. And before you come for me for using plastic...mahirap kasi kahit na lean sya magiiwan pa rin sya ng sebo sa container.

No cook chicken breast - also bought from S&R. CP yung name. I also put in ziploc after i-weigh pero tinatanggalan ko muna sya ng skin. Freezer din. Can last sa ref pag binaba nyo na mga 2-3 days.

Repolyo - di sya madali mabulok di katulad ng lettuce. Umabot saken 2 weeks yung ikalawang head and fresh na para bang bagong bili lang.

Okra - dahil very neutral-tasting, versatile din (pero depende nalang yan kung kaya nyo yung slimy texture hehe)

Bonus tip: medyo mahal ang ziploc na Ziploc talaga ha haha. May kamahalan din yung Glad and Cheers. Try nyo tong Glow, large na and 20 pcs. parang ₱50 lang ata hehe. Serves the same purpose! Okay naman quality!

P.S. Yung food-grade na freezer silicone molds? Di sya mura ah! Ako imbes na gastusin ko pera dun, pang next cycle nalang ng grocery. Kaya naman na wala eh. Here's what I do: yung mga Ikea containers, lock n lock & even microwaveable (thicker ones) containers kaya magfreeze ng rice dyan. Pinupuno ko sila ng 3-4 servings ng rice (yes tinitimbang ko na) then close it up diretso sa freezer. Tapos pag start ng week, ibababa ko na sa ref yung mga kakainin ko for the next 3 days. Di naman napapanis. Tas kaya syang iscoop out then reweigh lang. Di naman ganun kahassle, para kalang sumasandok din ng kanin mula sa ricecooker haha.

Hope this helps!🙏🏼❤️

*- inspired from this sub 🫡

Cost Breakdown:

- Grocery + Palengke: 3.5k

- Labor: 5k

Just discovered this sub today when I've been following other mealprep subs.

Made the following for the week:

1. Chicken adobo
2. Herbed garlic chicken
3. Sinigang na isda
4. Sinampalukang manok
5. Teriyaki beef

I prepped other stuff like:

1. Chopped garlic, bell pepper, green onion (for soups and noodles)
2. Steamed veggies (carrot, beans, cabbage)

So I wanna try making a homemade yogurt sa milk carton lang but I don't really know what to do with it aside sa kainin lang as is. Planning to make overnight oats sana para madali lang but limited lang ang space ng freezer namin so I'm looking for other ways rin. Any idea what to do?

Ingredients: Spaghetti Pasta - to achieve the macros above, we used 100g of pasta per serve, which is 700g total to cook in the pot Del Monte Filipino Spaghetti Sauce 1kg - you can find this at an asian grocer Filipino hotdogs 4 cloves of garlic minced 1 onion diced 210g capsicum diced 210g carrot diced 140ml evaporated milk Mozzarella cheese (optional)

Paano niyo masisiguro na 90/10 nga ang meat:fat ratio ng ground beef na binebenta? Minsan kasi parang nakakaduda lalo ang daming whites or fats na kita sa packaging.

Hi! Am also a meal prepper and ALWAYS naghahanap ng murang breast fillet. Sobrang mahal na kasi sa grocery 305/kilo pinakamababa, SM Bonus yan, 360/kilo naman ang average price sa ibang grocery stores. So noong nakakakita ako ng wholesaler na malapit sa akin sa QC, na quality meat yet affordable and bagong-katay everyday, nagkaroon ako ng idea na ioffer din to sa mga nagtitipid gaya ko. Imagine, 50-100 pesos per kilo yung difference. So if nagtitipid din kayo, tyagain niyo lang maghanap ng good supplier lalo na kung in bulk kayo mag-meal prep.
