  • There’s a common misconception out there that eating healthy (and tasty) on a budget is impossible. But that’s not true. You can, in fact, meal prep on a budget. I’m going to show you exactly how you can build an effective and healthy budget-friendly meal prep plan for just over $8.00/day ($8.39)-complete with budget meals recipes. So, the first thing we need to do to make our meal prep budget friendly is choose the right food sources. I've listed out what the most friendly protein, fats, and carbs options are in the video and you want to use those sources to design your meal prep on a budget.
    So, knowing that, let’s put this into practice and dive into our budget meals recipes. The meal plan will consist of 4 main meals with at least 20g of protein within each meal in order to keep our muscle protein synthesis levels elevated throughout the day. The total equates to 2,700 calories and roughly 160g of protein.
    Meal #1: Breakfast Smoothie ($1.70)
    2 tbsp (30g) Peanut Butter: $0.16
    2 cups (500mL) 2% Milk: $0.30
    1 banana: $0.16
    1/3 cup (30g) Oats: $0.08
    1 scoop (35g) Whey Protein: $1.00
    766 calories, 55g protein, 78g carbs, 29g fat
    Meal #2: Egg Stir Fry ($1.51)
    3 whole eggs: $0.42
    ½ cup (~100g) uncooked brown rice: $0.45
    1 chicken stock cube: $0.06
    ½ (~45g) cup carrots: $0.12
    ½ (~45g) cup celery: $0.20
    ½ (~45g) cup cabbage: $0.14
    3-4 tbsp soy sauce: $0.08
    2 tsp garlic powder: $0.04
    602 calories, 27g protein, 81g carbs, 18g fat
    Meal #3 Fajita Bowl ($2.84)
    ½ cup (~100g) uncooked brown rice: $0.45
    1 chicken stock cube: $0.06
    4oz (~110g) raw diced chicken breast: $1.10
    1 green pepper: $0.48
    1 diced sweet onion: $0.28
    1 cup (~230g) canned pinto beans: $0.30
    ¼ cup (~100g) salsa: $0.11
    Seasoning: $0.06
    782 calories, 48g protein, 130g carbs, 8g fat
    Meal #4 Ground Turkey Sweet Potato Dish ($2.34)
    4.5 ounces (~125g) raw ground turkey (93/7): $0.76
    10oz (280g) raw diced sweet potato: $0.73
    1 cup (~150g) fresh green beans: $0.69
    1 tbsp (15mL) olive oil: $0.06
    Seasoning: $0.10
    560 calories, 30g protein, 58g carbs, 24g fat
    So now that we’ve gone through the budget-friendly meal prep plan, let’s go over some important information as to how to actually implement it. What I’d recommend is meal prepping the 3 meals but not the smoothie and instead just making that fresh as it takes just 5 minutes to do and will taste a lot better. I’d also recommend prepping these meals to be good for 3 days.
    Next, let’s cover how to add some variety to it. Doing this is actually quite simple and can be done by just swapping out some of your protein, carb, or fat sources in your meal for an equivalent amount of another budget friendly food source instead (I have a chart of them in the video). In addition to this, experiment with different seasonings, sauces, and veggies for each dish as well.
    Lastly, let’s cover how to tweak the calories and macros of this meal prep plan to better suit you while still being budget friendly. Basically, you want to prioritize aiming for around 1g of protein per lb of your bodyweight and a calorie intake of your bodyweight in lbs multiplied by around 15-17. Once you have these two targets set, you can simply increase or decrease the portions of the meals in this plan as needed.
    Hopefully, you were able to see that eating healthy while at the same time keeping it tasty can indeed be done on a budget. And for a step-by-step program that puts this all together for you by showing you not only how to train to build muscle, but also shows you exactly what to eat, how much to eat, and then how to adjust this overtime so that you can build muscle as efficiently as possible just like several of our members have done with their Built With Science programs, then simply take the analysis quiz to discover which science-based program would be best for you and where your body is currently at below:

    For those of you wanting to increase the protein count, adding Greek yogurt is a great addition to the morning smoothie. A $5 tub from Walmart can last around 2 weeks. That’s an extra .35 cents per day for around 13g of protein extra

    I know as a body builder type you might not have thought of this but this meal prep is really great for pregnant and nursing mothers as well. When you're pregnant and making milk you need high calcium and protein. I'm 6 months post partum and I am not trying to gain muscle mass at all but this meal prep will definitely help me with my nutritional goals and help me nourish my baby. Thank you 😍

    I used to doubt everything about health and nutrition until I taught myself how to cook when the Pandemic started back in March. Literally learned as I went and went from 175 down to 137 lbs from running every other day, staying in a caloric deficit and eating cheap healthy food like this. I was so surprised and now understand what the body is capable of. I'm lean bulking now, back up to 150 lbs but loving how learning how to cook changed my life. I'd suggest anyone to just start, experiment, have fun with it, everyone's meal prep will be different, have a routine going for yourself and you won't ever look back after all the progress you make!

      Bro how is that possible, every protein powder today alone is usually 25g of protein per scoop then you add protein from two spoon full of peanut butter, oatmeal has some protein and don’t forget about the protein from milk. I would put it at atleast minimum 45g of protein but his 55g is probably accurate I have never done the exact calculations.

    I'll always remember what Jeff Cavalier from AthleanX said:
    You can only have 2 out of 3 things when it comes to meal planning: time, money or quality.
    You can buy cheap and make it great quality, but it takes time. You can save time and buy quality food somewhere, but it's not cheap. You can save time and money by eating fast foods, but it's low quality.

      Hes not right, Jeff.
      You can cook a soup out of fx. macel in tomatosauce in a can, and then add all the vegetables you want, I chose frosen spinat, kale, peas, wokmix, tomato etc.they are as cheap if not cheaper than fresh and need no preparation. They are as healthy as fresh as well as they are frozen right after picking. then blend in eggs after desire to smoothen the soup and give protein. You can then vary with many diff. cans of beans etc. added in.
      It take s next to no time to cook, eat and make time for making money for, as it is as cheap as it comes and taste awsome, not like normal tuna and chicken and rice.

      Hey guys, I'm a begginer and I'd like to know what you think about my workout plan at home to get stronger and bigger. I used Jeff's last video (Mike Tyson's routine) as a foundation to this routine:
      Workout A:
      Bench dips:10
      Inverted rows: 10
      Shrugs (5kg each hand): 10
      Situps: 20
      Squats: 20
      (10 times a day)
      Workout B:
      Pushups: 10
      Scapular pullups: 10
      Assisted chinups (feet on chair): 10
      Planks: 30s
      Lunges: 20
      (10 times a day)
      I would do this workout 4 days a week (A, B, rest, A, B, rest, rest. Repeat)
      There is so much pulling in this routine basically because I'm trying to work on achieving my first pullup. For nutrition, I have a structured meal plan of clean bulk, but I made it like so I would like the foods I'm eating. Would a routine like that help me to get stronger? Thank you!

Also, with modern flash freezing there is very minimal loss of quality and the vegetables are always picked at their optimal ripeness

      You may be eating too much protein at once. Try splitting it up throughout the day. Your body can only absorb so much protein, the rest is either used for energy or, goes the way of the colon. You may be having a protein shake and then an hour later eating meat high in protein. Could also be your bioflora. Try eating yogurt with active cultures or kefir milk.

      If you have a fast metabolism like I do, Darry Gold Old Fashioned chocolate milk has tons of calories and protein for 14 oz. Pretty easy to chug a glass of that. I add butter to most things I cook as well. Also, cashews (expsnsive) or another nut, mixed in with diced cheese goes a long way calorie wise. Adding 2 tablespoons of peanut butter to every meal with a glass of milk can add up to 1000 calories if you eat 3 to 4 meals a day. And do not sleep on tortillas. A large flour tortilla is about 450 calories. Now ofc all this food i have mentioned is very high in fat (and also protein), but if your body burns fat relatively well, this is all food i consider very easy to consume (im not a big eater at all). Also another tip. Have something small when you first wake up. A bowl of cereal or oatmeal. And I mean small, like 200 calories. Within an hour or 2 you will be extremely hungry. Hope this helps!
