I show you the most important tools for professional meal prepping that go into my bag, share a bit about the admin work that has to happen behind the scenes to make this job possible, talk about how much food I make and how quickly I can typically do it, and we'll do a little cooking together when I'll share one of my favorite flexible meal prep recipes on the web!

Hello hi, welcome back! Today we’re doing all the stuff I need to do to get ready for a client! I’m also going to take you along with my while I make one of my very favorite flexible dishes that holds up great for meal prep :)
Just wanted to let you know that I don’t even meal prep😂 but somehow find your IG and UA-cam channel SUPER entertaining. You are really great at (cooking) communicating and being genuinely approachable. All the luck to you!
Ahhh Margarida! This is so nice, and this is exactly my goal…I’m so glad you’re enjoying :):):)
I’m just now diving into the world of meal prep as I was starting to really hate cooking every single meal from scratch each time. I found your channel over the holiday break and oh my god, it’s helped me out so much. I look forward to learning more from you and trying out your recipes. Thank you for creating this channel!
Omg so good to know im not the only one who eats lunch/ dinner while watching UA-cam. Love your videos please make a cheap/ inexpensive meal prep for 5 days worth
I love seeing what you eat. Giving me lots of good ideas and options.
haha as soon as you mentioned indoor shoes I wondered if that was something you'd taken from Japan! I think I'm going to keep the habit too, I like it a lot. The last time I went back to NZ and visited family I remember walking into my parent's house, my childhood home, and just looking around kind of lost. My mum asked what was wrong and my brother, whose wife is Chinese and whose family has the same indoor shoes policy, was like 'she's looking for where to put her shoes'. Yeah, I was. And it never stopped feeling weird to me the whole two weeks I was there, that there was no designated shoe removing spot at the front door.
Haha very glad you related! My whole immediate family does this now! There’s definitely no designated spot in my NYC apartment, though😹just a big pile of shoes at the front door!
‘Meal prep is just leftovers’ 😂 love this!
You’re so cool Ericka Adler! Modelo especial is my fav beer! Cheers!❤️
Absolutely loved this video!!! 😍😍.. You’re inspiring ❤️
Yay so glad you enjoyed, Joyce!
Love it!
Glad I found your videos. So calming. Watching your videos is my new decompressing method. 😁❤
WEEE that is SO nice to hear, that’s the goal :)
Meal prep is a goal oriented responsibility caring for you future self. Leftovers are a happy accident. 😅👍
haha...but...what if you _plan _ to have leftovers? Then I think they're meal prep!
Great video. Thank you for sharing!
You’re down to earth and interesting. I live in Japan. Yes, taking shoes off is a great custom here:) please keep making more videos Erica 😘
I miss Japan so much! Hoping to take a trip there later this year if it's safe. Hope you're doing okay through the state of emergencies!
That was a fun video, keep going Erica!
Glad you liked it!!
Loved the video!! You are great and all three of your guests were pretty good, too!
hehe yes, I've got some good guest stars!
I like that your videos are kinda "home made" and not super produced! Gives a sense of a friend, not the celeb influencer that you are!
Plus, also super dig your style in clothing, I find it quite similar to a millennial Japanese, comfy and neutral colored.
haha still very much learning filming and editing and I guess it shows 😅 and ?I'm so flattered you like my style! You'll notice me repeating outfits A LOT over time I'm sure...I'm a less is more kinda gal!
What an amazing video!!!!!! ❤️
Glad you liked it!!
Would like to see more cooking videos Erica ❤️
Want to start something like this in my area. Thank you for this.
Enjoyed watching! Keep it up!
So happy to hear that! Hopefully you enjoy today's video too, Nicole :):)
I super loved this video
Yay, so glad to hear it, Gabriela!!!!
i love your vlogs!!!
Just filmed a weekend vlog getting my sh*t together :P excited to get that one edited and out there!
Great video! The shrimp meal looks perfect!💯 Currently 1am here and I am starving.
Yay!
Thank you for this video. I am amazed that you meal prepped that many meals in 3 hours max. Do you visit any clients twice per week? I would love to see more videos about work as a meal prep chef. I have a long term goal of becoming a meal prep chef.
Thank You
Love the content. Do you have a recipe book out?
I bought your book and it worked out perfect esp the tofu recipes however since my cancer & TT I can't have soy anymore 😫 I miss tofu 😒, but thank you for sharing & I still use the other recipes. 😁
This was great. Good to hear that the time in the kitchen goes down the more you do it.
The real question is, did you find out what the kitty needed?
He…just needs attention…100% of the time😹😹😹 and yes! Practice makes perfect
Hehe yes, always love kitty content!
I just came across your page! Im a private chef content creator as well. A lot of hats! I really enjoy your videos. lol I wasted years on tiktoks it feels like. XD
I like how she elongates some of the words in her sentences.
Hehe oh goodness this is so nice. I get annoyed by it when I'm editing myself! But I'm glad it's not bothersome to you!!
@@fresherica4402 is so cute though
Where are your bowls from? So pretty!
hmmm, which ones? here's a link to shop my kitchen! fresherica.com/kitchen-favorites/
i gotta try that trader joes coffee you drink!!
Yes! I just got more today--making some cold brew as we speak!
I’m a new mom. And I absolutely hate cooking 😔 I think it’s because I don’t know how to plan and prep. I wasn’t exposed to many different foods growing up, and then I worked at a coffee shop and restaurants where I’d always eat the same things, but obviously I didn’t cook it so I never know what to make, and when I want to venture out, I don’t know if it’ll be worth buying new ingredients, what if I don’t like it and now I have some random seasoning or packet of who knows what just rotting there ☹️ I’m always winging meals and it makes me drag my feet all day. I’m looking forward to your channel and news letters. And the cooking classes!!! Thank you 🙏🏽
Hi Jenny! Ahhh this struggle is so real, I've definitely been there too! I'm so glad you're enjoying the newsletter etc.! Hopefully itll help you feel more enthused about cooking!
Hi! Love your channel. I'm wondering how you do your pricing for your clients? Is it per meal, per hour plus costs of food, etc. Thanks!
Hi Mary! So glad you’re enjoying! And I charge a flat rate per session! Clients cover the cost of groceries :)
Erica, what kind of chopping block do you use?
Vegan and gluten free big portions even you skinny Minnie need to eat more . Compartmentalize with conceit for Wheatgrass then still have to make cheap pasta without a press.. oh this is great! Oh wow the light
Super-Duper Floor person and we also don't wear shoes in the house. New York is disgustingly dirty as well as ANY outside. It's so much cleaner not to wear shoes in the house and soooo comfortable ❤️
FLOOR PEOPLE UNITE!!!!
What's the best way of finding a personal chef in Albany,NY?
Two suggestions! First, you can google "personal chef, Albany, NY" and see what that brings up. You can also seek out culinary schools within a couple hour radius and see if there are job boards through them where you can post a personal chef wanted ad! :)
What kind of cereal do you like with yogurt? I never tried that!
most of them! I'm very very into cereal :D I think I was eating some sort of bran flake here?
@@fresherica4402 looks good- thanks for answering! I really appreciate it!
Agree on the shoe thing, but the backpack on the subway floor icked me out too.... But beyond your disgusting behavior (just kidding), I'm excited to see more videos. That curry looked yummy.
hehe yes, but...the subway seats are also.... 😅 so glad you're enjoying!
I’m not a floor person but I am team no outside shoes in the house 👌🏽
heheh happy to be on that team with you!
Floor sitters only 😤
you get me
Do you frezzer this meal?
I didn't put any of this in the freezer, no! :)
interesting but i suggest you to kill the annoying music while u are talking...
lol
@junelikethemonth Definitely does not eat food that looks pretty she just makes what she has As long as it tastes good that's what matters
