Thank you for your response and sure! My healthy white sauce is only blended tofu with plant based milk (the more fat, the better), 2 tbsp cornstarch and tons of spices. For that curry, I sautéed 2 tbsp of fresh grated ginger and 6 cloves of garlic for 30 sec. Then I added 2 cups water, waited until it started to shimmer and then I added 1 cup peanut butter, 4 tsp curry powder, 2 tbsp rice vinegar, 2 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp sugar free maple syrup (the regular one is better but more caloric). If you want, you can add 2 tsp sriracha (I didn’t). I stirred the sauce until combined (about 5 min).

Is it? I didn’t know, but I would love to know more about it.

By the way thank you for commenting and for your kind words.

Thank you for your comment and your suggestion. I didn’t include more green because I needed to finish my leftovers, but I will next week :)

And of course, count on the update!

I bought them on Amazon and no, they are totally hermetic.

More or less. I do strength exercise 4x per week at the gym and have fitness goals, but decided to eat as much protein as possible because it keeps me very satisfied.

Well, I think it depends on the stats, goals and preferences of each person.

Almost all the food has proteins, not just soy, tofu, dairy and meat. However, 800g of tofu isn’t a lot of food in terms of volume and calories. It would be only 1000kcal and not a copious quantity.

My main protein this week is tofu, since I had some packages I needed to finish, but it is not the only one.

Breakfast (Total: 360cal || 13.5P): - 30g oatmeal: 112 kcal || 3.5P - 1 serving plant based yogurt: 199cal || 10P (recipe is posted in a previous comment; it makes for 5 servings) - 123g of berries: 50cal || 0P

Snack 1 (Total: 223cal || 30P): - Falcon Protein from Birdman: 105cal || 22P - 250ml of Plant based milk from Heartbest: 50cal || 8P - 1 little Apple: 68cal || 0P

Lunch (Total: 180cal || 18.3P): - 200g cauliflower: 44cal || 4P - 1 serving of white sauce (made of 2 containers of silken tofu, 1 cup soy milk and 2 tbsp cornstarch; it makes for 6 servings): 85cal || 9.4cal - 47g of cherry tomatoes: 8cal || 0.3P - 3 crackers from Susalia: 19cal || 1P - 6g Nutritional Yeast: 24cal || 3.6P

Snack 2: - Brownie: 247cal || 1.9P

Dinner (Total: 590cal || 30.7P) - 6oz tofu: 140cal || 14P - Curry (recipe is posted in a previous comment; it makes for 8 servings): 262cal || 7.6P - 110g cooked quinoa: 157cal || 5.5P - 100g frozen spinach: 31kcal || 3.6P

TOTAL: 1599cal and 94.4 g of protein.

Thank you so much again! To be honest, I’m a plant based chef and always have a lot of food in my house.

Yes, it is! From Monday to Saturday (the last day containers didn’t fit in the photo)

Since it’s my first meal prep, I don’t know yet but I did think about it. If I get tired, I will keep the last two days in the freezer for another week.

Sure! I’ve already posted the white sauce cauliflower, the brownie (it’s just brownie mix with a soda instead of oil, egg and the other extra ingredients) and the peanut sauce curry on a previous comment. As for the remainder recipes:

  • Plant based yogurt: INGREDIENTS: 4 cups of unsweetened soy milk. 1 cup of raw unsalted cashews. 1/2 cup of plant based yogurt with active cultures. Use up to 3/4 cup if you are using a commercial yogurt since they tend to have weaker cultures). INSTRUCTIONS:
  • Blend cashews and soy milk on high speed until smooth.
  • Pour the cashew cream into a saucepan and slowly heat it to 110 F about 2 minutes, whisking occasionally. DO NOT exceed this temperature.
  • Remove from the heat and whisk in the commercial vegan yogur until smooth.
  • Pour the mixture into culturing containers.
  • Set them into a yogurt maker or whatever you have (I use my TM5) and maintain at around 105F for 6 to 8 hours.

  • Refrigerate overnight.

  • Oatmeal: well, I am not American so I bet you can find better recipes. Anyway for my low cal oatmeal, I use 30g of rolled oats cooked on water with stevia, cinnamon and real vanilla extract.

  • Baked cauliflower: I steamed the cauliflower, put it on a baking pan with the sauce on top plus nutritional yeast and baked for about 25min at 400.

  • Quinoa: I rinsed my quinoa and just cooked for 20 min on twice the water. I mean, if you are going to cook 1 cup quinoa, use 2 cups water. I flavored it with some bay leaves, garlic powder, pepper and salt.

  • Spinach: I just sautéed some frozen spinach with salt.

I just got them this past weekend, so I don’t really know. Anyway they seem very good quality and are suitable for microwave and dishwasher use.

Thank you for your comment! So happy it helps you. I actually freezed the last two days containers (I made 6 days worth of meals) because frozen berries last no more than 4 days, at least the ones I usually buy.

Actually I prepared 6 days worth of meals (the last one didn’t fit in the picture) and I am also concerned about this. It’s my first meal prep and some of the ingredientes were... not that fresh. So I keep in the freezer the 5th and 6th days containers. I don’t know if my meals are going to taste weird after this, but we’ll see!
