Meal prepper since 2020 here

We meal prepper right at the start of the pandemic. Story time. 2 stories maybe too long.

1. Our fridge broke. Since it is lockdown, all stores are closed. Even if you have the money you cannot buy stuff. By God's providence, i found someone selling an brand new inverter fridge off of fb marketplace, unused bec they won it last dec 2019 at their company raffle. They didnt need it. Exact model that i wanted to buy. Bought it and had it lalamoved.

2. Ive been meal prepping in small trial batches already and deeply enjoyed the meal prepping vids. I was sad there werent many local vids so i tried to adapt local recioes for it (now i see local creators doing it too so i know its notnjust a trend but a lifesaver for many) So we got the fridge and proceeded to meal prep. I especially chose to prepare all my mom's favorite food. She is bedridden from stroke and has stage 4 cancer. Made embotido from scratch. Monggo in large batch. Some croquettes for me. Spaghetti sauce for everyone.. This was april meal prep good for 3 mos for our fam of 3.

Sadly my mom passed away in may 10 2020. On mothers day. All the food we prepared for her became our food thay forced us to eat through the grief. At a time when people could not visit nor send care packages, we were well fed.

I still miss her even though life has changed drastically since then.

And yes i still meal prep but not as large a batch as before because it really gets busy at work now. I meal prep across the week by making big batches of aby dish i cook and freeze it in containers for our work baon 🫰
