What Do I Eat Living in a Van? [REAL]
Вставка
- Опубліковано 19 чер 2024
- It might not be the most glamorous menu, but I wanted to share my method for meal-prep that I use exclusively while living in a van. I have a limited amount of kitchen tools/appliances so it has taken me a while to find an efficient way of cooking while living on the road. When you live in a vehicle efficiency is key, so albeit a little repetitive and pretty basic, this is what works for me.

I'm very impressed with your ability to eat basically the same 2 meals for a week on end and not get sick of them. That must help a lot with consolidating groceries and saving fridge space in the van
thank goodness I’m not a picky eater 😅
The stir fry burrito has enough variance in ingredients for it not to feel like the same meal every time, which is cool.
I like these videos of everyday van life things. Doesn't always have to be some "huge" ""thing""
Just came across your channel last few days, its great, well done, humble, not too heavy on the effects. Just living vanlife, enjoying the content! Ive been waiting months to find a channel such as this!
Love the comments you get that "things are very real" and to that effect. :-) Yep, agreed!
One slightly less obvious thing that contributes to repetition in food choice is that, for a single person, there is a certain amount of repeating that has to be done just to get through the minimum food purchase. We can't generally buy a half a bell pepper, for example. At least, not where I shop. Trend is in the other direction (packet of 6, for example!).
Food looks pretty good to me - and I cook and camp pretty well, maybe a bit more healthy without chips/jelly beans. One thing, if you made those breakfast burritos into two so they aren't so awkward, then pop them back on the fry pan and brown all sides - makes them really yummy.
haha, yeah. I have bigger tortillas now. Browning the tortilla is a great idea too!
a video about your workout routine/what you do to stay physically healthy would be awesome, keep up the beatiful content, thanksss!!!
I have a biolite with grill unit. I make fresh bread on it everyday. When I want to eat bread I cut the disc in half and toast it on the grill again, so I am always eating toasted bread with butter, jam or cheese. When you figure this out you feel like the luckiest person in the forest alive.
What is bread? its organic wheat or spelt flour, salt, yeast or baking powder and a little bit of oil. If you let the bread sit with only yeast for a few hours or longer I get the best results, the longer the better.
that sounds great! I love fresh bread
Love this type of content
Just bought a Toyota High Ace Camper so loving your videos! Burritos are a great idea ❤
Interesting. Tip: cut the salad bag long ways and mix all the other little bag ingredients right in the salad pkg. No dishes. Yw
I wish I had your metabolism! That's interesting about the soda in Canada. I must try it. I was thinking you could just useore than one tortilla for those huge ones but then I thought it would be a waste really. So now I have to rethink burritos. Hehe happy trails!
Pretty good tip about the veggies.
You can cook most of what people do at home, it seems. Not sure about frozen dinners or baking, though. I don't eat frozen dinners but I bake bread on occasion, eat it as the primary source of calories on some days. However, I can get by with whole wheat pasta and black beans, which is cookable on a stove.
Max, the chow is always interesting... good vid - you're a burrito eating machine! I can relate to the junk tooth. Nice that you have the shrew metabolism.
Great video, Max, and most interesting to learn about what you eat while on the road. For those of us who are sugar-addicted, it is hard to cut that out, but I like the one person's comment about incorporating nuts into your diet. They are pretty high in protein and whatever fat content in them is the good kind of fat. Glad to see you back in the states! 😊
I usually do have cashews on hand or something similar! good tip!
Nice video Max. i love sugar like you do lol...but i tried to reduce it. what i can recommend is snacking some walnuts instead of chips or sweets. nuts are healthy af and a handfull walnuts/day is a great addition to the diet. and i stopped drinking soda! only water, coffee and sometimes beer (mostly alcohol free) the older you get, the more you realize how important a healthy diet is...
nuts are a great addition. I always eat them too fast though 😂.
Great menu ! Tasty and healthy
if you don't want to cry with the onions put some water in the knife before cutting it, it works¡
When we meet on the road, we are having BEANOA BURRITOS!
Really nice video! I get the feeling you're into burritos :)
a bit, yes
I found out the 'blue dot' new video alert for dusty odyssey is Max, our dusty Greek hero backcountry wanderer.
Really enjoyed this. I like the way you fold everything into a Burrito. I can eat all manner of healthy as long as it's in a sandwich. Lay it out on a plate and I can't get passed eyeballing it.
Lovely photography too. Thanks for sharing.
I agree, everything healthy has to be packaged with a carb somehow, bread, tortilla, pasta, doesn’t matter 😂
@@dustyodysseyYou're Greek? Αα, για αυτό έχεις μύτη, just like me! 😊
@@zo1dberghe is not Greek 😂
@@princeofpersia633OP said he is. The internet never lies!
oh haha I saw this and I was like who tf is dusty odyssey? I thought someone was stealing your videos or something lol
Hahahah me too but that hair in the cover was undeniable 😂
glad you found your way here!
I love how you burritize all those veggies 😊
7:04 Just like Australia. It's a stupid big country in the middle of nowhere.
Namaste 🙏 from Mysore Sachin’s kitchen
Every meal is a burrito 😂
“What I do know is that a lot of salt goes a long way”
Great video! Really appreciate the honesty sharing what you truly intake daily (healthy or not). Next time you should also show the calories burned daily to see where you are at (sure you must have an app or some sort of tracking device). You are young, so your metabolism is still good burning calories pretty readily, but what you do now really effects your future. May I suggest cutting 25% of your treats as a start and see how your body reacts. Again, I am not a dietician so you should really seek professional help. Thanks gain and be safe!
Thanks! Yeah, the empty carbs are killer, and I have been gaining weight, which is why I did this. I don’t trust apps to accurately track calories burned, just too many variables in my opinion.
@@dustyodyssey Agreed about the inaccuracy of the various Apps and Trackers, but it's a starting point. I personally take as much as a 10% calorie burn reduction.
Those beanoa burritos look like they slap
Just watched your van tour and now this. I enjoy your vids… but why do you eat so many burritos? 😬
because they’re tasty 🙂
Wish you had a bigger fridge. That looks annoying.
Now I will try to make burrito
good luck
why are the tortillas so pale?
Those were, no joke, the best tortillas I could find in the Yukon. 🤷♂️
Excel keeps blocking my macros. VBA sucks anyway.
VBA is pain
I don't understand why everyone thinks the Walmart parking lot is a free campground. It's not! I've actually shopped at Walmart for groceries and i came out and had a camper parked so close to my truck that I could not get in the drivers side of my truck. I knocked on his camper door and asked him if he would move his camper and he decided that he wanted to fight me. I went back into the Walmart and spoke with Walmart manager who then phone the police. The police came out and told the camper that he had to leave the Walmart parking lot because it's not legal to camp in the Walmart parking lot. Now a lot of Walmarts have signs in their parking lots that say no camping.
Walmart used to allow overnight parking at every store until it started causing problems. Like you said, most Walmarts no longer allow overnights. I asked at customer service at both of these locations and they said I was ok to spend 1 night. They also told me where to park in the lot so I was far away from other customers. Sorry about your bad experience 🙁
YES REAL!!!!!!!
You sound like a Karen
I'm diabetic so your diet would be very bad for me😮. Also a good idea to up the protein and lower the carbs. Plus keep an eye on fibre as well.
fiber is super important, thanks!
The issue is….’van life’ is not your identity, and if it is you are farked… life is what happens whilst you happen to be living in a van. If you don’t see that you will be forever trying to work out why you have no friends.
You really need to get more protein and fat in your diet. And less sugar!
Not a bad plan, working on it.
so ya must be a vegetarian? i'd be concerned with the fats being so omega6 heavy - the lead indicator in prediabetes. You're young enough now that you won't notice it. But when you're 58 ya will notice it. Ain't nothin wrong with vegetables, but a steak will keep ya full and not snackin. snacks are what get ya into trouble with the omega6 stuff. Of course - myyyy opinons.
