That is so impressive! The time saved is insane! You actually inspired me to pre-cook more staples in large portions and it makes a big difference. While I still love my cooking ritual as a grounding practice, I love having some elements already prepped.
I normally soak my oats in boiling water. I then go do my yoga return after 30 mins, throw the soaked water bec oats like many grains contain phytic acid which prevents the abortion of its nutrients by the body. After the soaking it cooks on the stove top in 3-4 mins. Thanks for sharing & good luck with the rest of your pregnancy🙂
It's great that Maddie managed to save over 100 hours in the kitchen with food prep. Another excellent video Maddie and love 🥰 it with lots of 😋 food. Have a good weekend and week ahead. Love 💞 Maddie & ❤Q.
My meal prep is to make very large dinners. My husband and I get a dinner one night, planned over dinner another night, plus a lunch for each of us. Breakfasts are always microwaved oats with fruit. Quick and easy. Now that I have an Instant Pot, I might cook up multiple breakfasts and store in the fridge. When i cook rice and beans in the Instant Pot or on the stove, I always make a large portion. I love to freeze portions of chile or soups or sloppy joes for fast dinners later!
As always an excellent video Maddie. I do have a question for you which silicon covers for your bowls do you have? Or if you were going to buy new ones which ones would they be? I am getting ready to order some and could use your expert advice.😊
Thank you! Great question... I got these and LOVE them: amzn.to/3TQ7LLg I haven't bought plastic wrap since getting them! I have also been eyeing these for covering bowls and pans: amzn.to/43sO6Ed I think they would make a good addition to my collection as well. 🤗
This was a very helpful and‘timely’ video. Haha Really gave me food for thought about embracing meal prep tasks instead of begrudging them. Great video!
I don't have a recipe website or cookbook yet, but it's something I've been thinking about! So thank you for letting me know it's something you'd be interested in! Something for me to plan for for the future. If you're having trouble with the RUclips video description box, definitely check out on google (or RUclips!) how to get there. Usually I will post the recipe from a video there, but this one didn't include a recipe, as I was just doing the time comparison. But I could definitely post the oatmeal & burrito bowl recipes here if you're interested. 😋
That’s great! Of course only if you are just feeding yourself. If you have a family, you would never have the room to put everyone’s meals in the fridge 😅
Well in that case I would combine them into the storage containers better! Like for the oatmeal, there is definitely space to put 2 servings in each container. 😀 I meal prep for my husband and myself and haven’t had a problem with space! I think with larger families you probably wouldn’t be prepping full meals like this anyway, you’d just do like all the roasted veggies together, a batch of beans, a batch of rice and let everyone make their own burritos, tacos, etc. so really you’d only need to store the batches which doesn’t take as much space. 😊
Interesting comparison. I eat the same meal for several days in a row. It's just me so if a recipe is 4 servings, I need just 3 recipes for the week to get me through lunch and dinner. I fill in with maybe a pita pizza and hummus with pita. I always cook one cup of rice at a time. If it's not needed, the rest goes in the freezer. For a serving of the red pepper, I will use just what I need and save the rest for another recipe. It's the dishes that kill me doing meal prep! Thanks, Maddie.

Wow! 😮 That really does put it into perspective! I love how you added the dishes in the time too. Thank you.
Right!? I was pretty surprised! Glad you enjoyed seeing the comparison. 🤗

Right!? I was so excited to test it out and actually see what the difference is and I was pretty surprised! I’m glad it inspired you as well! 😃😃

Nice! That’s a good way to do it too 😊
That was an amazing comparison! So interesting to see all the time saved by batch cooking or using leftovers in different ways. 😊
Thanks Sherri! I really enjoyed making this one! It was definitely interesting to see the time differences bc I had been wondering it myself. 😊
It's great that Maddie managed to save over 100 hours in the kitchen with food prep. Another excellent video Maddie and love 🥰 it with lots of 😋 food. Have a good weekend and week ahead. Love 💞 Maddie & ❤Q.
Thank you! Same to you 🤗🤗
Thank you. I will try to find out how to get there first
I loved your video, it is very practical and innovative, congratulations, greetings from Mexico City.
O wow. That is saving a lot more time than I would have thought!
Me too! 🙌🏻🙌🏻
Meal prep is a time saver AND keeps me on track
Great tips
Thanks
You look marvelous❤
Woohoo! 🙌🏻🙌🏻 Glad you enjoyed and thank you!!

That’s a great way to do it! Well done! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
What a clever idea to clearly demonstrate the advantage of meal prepping. Thank you! I think it was a very fair comparison!
Im so glad you enjoyed! And thank you! I definitely tried to show a very realistic example of each as I was genuinely curious myself! 🤗
Washing the dishes every day is the ickiest part of the whole plan, AMIRITE? Nice to do them once every 4 days
Definitely!!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Beautiful presentation, too! :)
Aww thank you! 🤗

@@LetsEatPlants thanks for getting back with me. I will put this in my order today. Thanks again.
@@dawnwalsh296 You're welcome! Enjoy 😃
Are you doing any freezer meal prep ahead your delivery?? Would love to see a video on that!
I had plans to but our freezer is so small now so I don’t know if we have room! 😆🙈 So far all I’ve prepped for it is black bean brownies.
This was a very helpful and‘timely’ video. Haha
Really gave me food for thought about embracing meal prep tasks instead of begrudging them. Great video!
Haha yess! So glad to hear that! 🤗🤗
Great inspiration! I need to look up a baked oat recipe...as soon as I find my oats!
Yes! Baked oats are such a time saver! 🙌🏻🙌🏻
@@LetsEatPlants oatmeal makes me sick. It has since I was a little kid. But maybe if it's in another form, I'd be able to tolerate it.
Normally, what is your daily calorie, fat and protein intake?
Great question! I’ll add it to the Q&A 😀
Cute idea
Thank you #SaveSoil #Consciousplanet
awesome!
🤗🤗
Is there a cookbook? If so name and where to get
Hey there Sheryl, do you mean a cookbook from me or from these recipes, or something else?
I am looking for a cookbook I have seen several recipes you have made I like. I don't seem to be able to get from the "see below"

What is babys name
We haven't shared her name publicly, so just calling her Baby Plants for now. 🥰

@@cyndij8312 That’s a great way to do it! 🙌🏻🙌🏻 And I agree, dishes from cooking every day is too much. 😜
