🌟What are go-to meals, MEAL PREP tricks, or general TIPS for surviving INSANELY BUSY weeks?
I would love to see some pre packaged food dupes.
Example:
Rice-a-roni Spanish rice. It comes in a small box that has an envelope of the spices, as well as the rice and pasta just loose in the box. I would love to know a copycat recipe for that envelope of spices and what the pasta part is? I see rice, but how much rice? I see pasta, but how much and what type?
I'd love to see your ideas for cooking for one! Too much of what I buy at the grocery store goes to waste because the packaging for many perishables is large, and as a single person, I simply can't eat it all fast enough. Eating the same leftovers 6 meals in a row is tiring. If you ever find yourself alone for a few days when you don't have to feed your whole family, I'd love to see what you do!
Love this style of prep! Would love to see this type again! Thanks!
Mindy I started watching your videos way back when you were doing ww videos but I don’t usually comment. All of your videos are great but this is one of my favorites. Thanks for all the ideas. The dressing looks delicious!
This was a practical video in the style of prepping I prefer doing. Always a good refresher. Thx. Susan
Great meal prep ideas. Enjoyed this video. I think I will meal prep stuff for tacos tomorrow night.
Great idea to give Green Chef as a wedding gift really like that idea. I also love the whole video
love these kind of videos!
I love this idea! Thank you so much for sharing. I will definitely be doing this! 😊
Parenting is so interesting today. You arrange your dinners on making sure kids make their activities. My mom was like we are having family dinner before you make your activities. I grew up in the 80's I would eat so fast in order to end dinner so I could be on time lol.
And I have to make the dressing you shared! My sister is going to love it!
I am going to look up your marinara sauce! That looked amazing!
As a single person, this is how I prep. I cannot eat 10 servings of chili for a week and not give up and waste food. So, I prep ingredients and make it up every night. More videos like these please.
Definitely like this way of meal prep! I do something like this since I’m vegetarian and my family is not. I make sides and then proteins that can mix and match. Makes a lot more sense.
Love this type of meal prep!
This is my favorite kind of meal prep. I think it helps give variety even if you are eating the same ingredients throughout the week. Love all your ideas.
I really like videos like this. Especially with ideas on how to make meals out of what you prepped. This is a working parents dream
I love this #lego meal idea 💡 #genius !
Where can i found the marinara recipe
Yum! I’ve seen people make the vodka sauce without the vodka before, we don’t have any alcohol at all so might give it a try without 🙂
I prep like this often. I find it's very helpful to write down some meal/dish combos to make with what was prepped so that when I'm starving and can't think or when my husband is helping. We can refer to the list to quickly decide what to eat.
I like this way of meal prep more than making a number of casseroles to pop in the oven. Thanks for giving me some new ideas.
I have never tried adding garlic when I make my Chuy's creamy jalapeño dupe recipe 🤔 Will definitely need to give it a try next time
Great ideas Mindy! I need to do this!
Great idea! I recommend adding some tomato paste to your taco meat.
Love this! Back before COVID started and gave me the chance to work from home, my commute to work was 1.5 hrs each way. I spent Sundays doing just these sort of prep meals. I need to do that again just to have down time during the week. Thanks for the reminder!! 💕
Your hair looks amazing
I had no idea that you have to refrigerate powdered buttermilk after opening. Do you store your ranch mix that you make in the fridge too?
This is how I often prep, started it a couple of years ago and it has been so helpful, especially on the weeks when we have lots of doctor's appointments.
This is the kind of meal prep that is most helpful for my family.
loved this video 😊
Excellent video!
Mindy this was an amazing video! What a great idea to have the ingredients on hand for several meals. Genius.
Thank you for the video!
cool
i love vodka sauce and rose sauces. interesting to see how to make vodka sauce. It's great that your kids are somewhat self-sufficient for dinners now. On The Minimal Mom, their 12-year-old daughter makes dinner for the family sometimes.
This was really helpful, thanks for posting. It's easy to see how you can use these in a few different ways to pull together a meal pretty quickly. I especially appreciated the dressing recipes!
Thanks for sharing.
Great meal prep. Please keep them coming. Debi in Vicksburg, MS. 🥰🥰
I use vodka instead of white wine to deglaze the pan when I make beef stroganoff and other Eastern European style dishes.
This video was genius. Great ideas!
Yes please do a few more of those !
Unfortunately mini bottles are illegal here in Utah! We don’t really drink much so I usually just omit the alcohol.
Finally a REAL family meal prep video! 😁
Great video, Mindy (as always) – I just so enjoy your channel!
I hear this! Middle of box lacrosse season, beaver scouts and cub scouts, and piano. It’s currently 4:30 and I’m about to serve a meal just so we can all eat together 😅
Great video Mindy! Thank you for the tips
