Love this video! I had very little experience cooking prior to starting to do your meal prep so I’m super thankful for your Patreon. The PDF and video are super helpful for someone as inexperienced in cooking as I am. The meal prep for chicken you mentioned is perfect as I was just thinking about trying to find something similar online (especially since it’s crockpot cooked as I still struggle being intimidated by pan frying chicken). Thanks for all your help Zach!
When my kids were little I would buy box of stuffing & can of stew from dollar store. Buy some frozen veggies from Walmart & shredded cheese. Cook each item separate the mix veggies with stew, put on top of stuffing & sprinkle with cheese! Yummy! Was really good in cooler months & kids ate it up. They still like it as adults.
You give me ways to eat healthy without feeling guilty that I’m not buying the organic “best” foods. I can use what’s on hand or get cheaper brands and it all tastes amazing!! Thank you for making the content you do!
Gosh, I really enjoy seeing your meals and they look really good but I’m a bit concerned about the preservatives especially with my inflammation due to my autoimmune disease. Would you ever consider making a video or two for ideas for those who have to avoid most preservatives while also trying to be low cost? Thank you for doing what you do! 🙏
I am so glad I found you on UA-cam too! I've been following you on TT for awhile now. I just told my husband I have to go back to cooking your recipes. I was loosing weight and keeping it off successfully. I am starting with prepping these recipes
I saw you on TikTok first, but I’m so excited to see what else you put out! I’m in of a bit of tight financial situation, so I’m excited I found you! Thank you for sharing this info! Can’t wait to start using it!! 🎉
I like the ingredient prep idea. Mostly for proteins, as I can then have different meals during the week. Salads, simple soups, quesadillas or tacos etc... That way I can have multiple favorites in my week. I would also like to see more Asian inspired meal preps. Thanks for all you do. The no bs simple affordable way you do things is inspired.
New to your channel, wondering how you'd recommend substituting the carb based rice, potatoes, or noodles in your recipes to help my insulin resistant body improve by lower carbs. I've learned from eating so much high carbs that as my insulin resistance got worse I would get sleepy from the carbs and sugars. Please help with suggestions
Will you be posting more details on the chicken 3-ways prep? Just wondering when you added in the seasoning...did you cook them each separately or make the full 3lbs of chicken at once & add the seasoning at the end? And that Salisbury steak has my mouth watering! Can't wait for that recipe to get posted!
These are great. My problem is that I have to cook low sodium for my mother, and there isn’t a whole hell of a lot out there as far as recipes go. I’m running out of ideas, and she is easily bored. :(
I do not do low carb, nor do I promote it. I teach balanced macros for sustainable lifestyle changes. Low carb is simply not sustainable for most people, and it's not necessary. All of my recipes also follow the American Diabetes Association's recommendation for carbs per meal.
You are so good at showing us how you do "regular" meals
Love your videos so much!! You are seriously helping out a single mom!
Your grocery hauls are fully saving my financial future with my partner! Thank you for these

I love the way you did the chicken. That will be a super time saver.

Yes yes yes more ingredient prep. I have been wanting to try it.
This definitely made me hungry! Sounds so good. ❤
Can’t wait for the recipes on all of these!

Love your videos. Show us that you can save money, eat great and still focus on fitness. Love the "Train like a Viking" shirt

Joining your Patreon has changed my life. Thank you for everything that you do.
I'm happy to hear that brother!
Instead of debit, use a rewards card. I like Fidelity since the rewards go to brokerage account or Chase for the travel rewards.

Thank you for the feedback Michelle. Are you a member of my Patreon already? If so, I have quite a few Asian inspired recipes on there.
As per usual, Great video with great ideas! Idk about the stuffing though. O will have to give it a try
Please post the stuffing meal! I could eat stuffing year round.
Honestly, I could too! Stuffing doesn't get enough respect in the culinary world :) Recipe will be coming soon!
Yes!! I love love stuffing. Thanks Zach for all that you do!!
I love these videos!!!!!!
Can you do some breakfast shakes? Some days it’s easier to just throw everything in a blender before getting kids to school lol.
I have a lot of protein shakes on my Patreon 👍
I really enjoy your creativity with your meals. How do you feel about using things like bisquick mix?
Perfectly fine to use ☺️
I too love ingredient prep. This way I can change things up. Would you consider a bean focused meal (other than chili) or tofu?
Do you ever do anything for breakfast? I work early and it’s hard to eat before I leave. It be nice if I could have something to take to work with me.

Hi, I'm a Patreon member and do not see the recipes for these. will they be up soon?
Yes I have to edit the videos for them and create the PDFs. They will be up as soon as they are ready.
Where can I find the Mac and cheese recipe?
Can you do low carb high protein meals

Why is the video quality so low?
Daaang the meat alone here would be over $40 😓
