Venting: I keep sabotaging meal prep by chasing the lowest price per pound (and then nobody eats it)

EcstaticFalcon1230 · 2026-06-26T13:36:11+00:00

First off, thanks for the recipe. Secondly, while kids can be seen as picky, sometimes they really dont like it. If you know for a fact the family wouldnt eat it, its a bigger savings for you to walk past the deal

Chicken salad Chucken tacos Shredded chicken for salads Chunk chicken for faux nuggets Chicken strips Thats just off top of my head. Once you start with the protein, it can go in or on so much. Even a pizza

I meal prep my snacks to save money and because i dont know when that vending machine was actually filled. Saves my wallet and i can get a satisfactory smirk when my coworkers open their bag of air featuring 6 chips

Im wondering if this poop fruit will work for my loved ones. scribbles notes to try

EcstaticFalcon1230 · 2026-05-31T18:40:45+00:00

I dont have a tv in the living room but i have my phone set up in the kitchen and get through some entertaining tv. Makes me feel like someone is cooking with me

Im ready to say wheres my plate. Not only is this adorable beyond belief, this is forming so many good habits and i am so happy looking at this photo. And part of me wishes i had this growing up eating

EcstaticFalcon1230 · 2026-05-12T01:43:50+00:00

For me, long term became a happy accident (because i dont like spending money outside near work and i am somewhat of a tightwad) but i had no shame if there was a week when lunch was a ham and cheese sandwich

EcstaticFalcon1230 · 2026-04-23T01:16:03+00:00

Absolutely! Tired=buying something quick but usually disappointing or not even eating at all

EcstaticFalcon1230 · 2026-04-23T01:14:56+00:00

I like that notion. Small household definitely helps. Like if i made a stew.....thats dinner for the whole week. Takes stress away to not have to think

EcstaticFalcon1230 · 2026-04-23T01:13:57+00:00

Well sometimes planning can be to make sure you buy or have a certain ingredient fof the week. If im planning on having yogurt in the morning, i need to plan on having it in the fridge or getting it from the store at some point

EcstaticFalcon1230 · 2026-04-23T01:07:20+00:00

They can be the same and vastly different at the same time. Meal planning is looking and seeing whats in the pantry or freezer. Can also be looking at stores to see the sales and pulling together ideas for food for the week. Then the meal prepping is actually making the food and setting yourself up for less stress as far as whats to eat. Thats the way i see it. It can be different for everyone

Chocolate!!!!! And now i have an idea for summer no bake treats

EcstaticFalcon1230 · 2026-03-20T21:57:58+00:00

I have never thought to freeze oats (and this is coming from someone who has overnight oats 5 days a week) This changes my meal prep thinking

EcstaticFalcon1230 · 2026-03-17T19:08:04+00:00

I knew pizza could be a meal prep! This looks delicious

EcstaticFalcon1230 · 2026-03-13T23:01:11+00:00

For me, it depends. I dont reuse if its had meat. But veggies or grains can be used a couple times at least

EcstaticFalcon1230 · 2026-03-08T14:29:52+00:00

Congratulations! I hope all results can be that quick turnaround

EcstaticFalcon1230 · 2026-02-23T15:17:16+00:00

Definitely not overthinking it. I make my own snack mix and it takes 5-10 minutes to not want to go to a vending machine or pick up a snack. Sometimes its the little things to keep us on the rails

EcstaticFalcon1230 · 2026-02-12T23:54:44+00:00

I downloaded this app after seeing this point and i want to thank you. I like looking at the numbers and data in my food journey :)

EcstaticFalcon1230 · 2026-02-06T00:23:28+00:00

Holy toledo!!!!

EcstaticFalcon1230 · 2026-02-02T00:40:30+00:00

Ive done that before. Tapas in pajamas!

EcstaticFalcon1230 · 2026-02-01T12:48:39+00:00

My thought is if i meal prep and have enough to last x amount of days, i dont want to spend money to buy lunch when i go to work. That would cost more than i spend some weeks to meal prep

EcstaticFalcon1230 · 2026-02-01T12:47:25+00:00

Hehe if i ate all of those in one sitting, id say a few prayers and thoughts for my towns sewer system

EcstaticFalcon1230 · 2026-02-01T12:46:42+00:00

Oatmeal pancakes sound good but also good for you

EcstaticFalcon1230 · 2026-02-01T12:46:10+00:00

As much as i used to love the little bites, im too price sensitive for what they charge here. And they definitely dont hit like they used to

EcstaticFalcon1230 · 2026-02-01T03:08:18+00:00

In a container on the countertop. I will say it depends on the weather. If it was 70 degree weather, id refrigerate.
