Munchies! I have had SO many requests for a family meal prep, so I hope you enjoy this!! Also for those interested- episode 2 of my 2nd channel, Eat The Pizza- launches TOMORROW!! Subscribe now! bit.ly/eatthepizza
This was a great video!
I love your videos. Do you have meal prep for a partys to. I'd like some of that :-)
Mind Over Munch Absolutely love your channel 😁
Mind Over Munch thank you!!!! This was a much needed video and can't wait for more. Love the one pan dinners and slow cooker meals!!!!
Mind Over Munch thanks so much for this video. It's going to be a huge help for school, work and summer. keep the great ideas coming
Is it "killing" anyone else to know how she does the Yin Yang salt and pepper?? 🤔😂
lol!
She said before she uses a toothpick and just takes lots of time to arrange it.
Marisa d'Escoto I missed that part:(
Made me think of the ying yang twins.
Yes we need to find out
This is soooooo helpful...like I'm 16 and have to prepare all the meals for my 7 younger siblings ....and this helps a lot with it...(also it is kind if a ritual in our family to prepare the meals together, and we all watch your vids :))
Wow! That is a lot of work, you are a good sibling to do that :) SO awesome that you watch the channel together, makes my day!! Thank you!
I am not Poppy ! Wow, that's crazy incredible lol :D
I am not Poppy ! Wow. What a wonderful young lady you are😁
I am not Poppy that's a lot of work! You go 😁
Thanks so much for including prep for The whole family!!!!!!
your intros are KILLER HILARIOUS!!
lol! 😅 I was definitely nervous about this one, but it was so fun!
R Oki Agreed👍
OMG that was what I was gonna say ! I'm laughing at 12:30 am
This is extremely helpful. Please continue this family meal prep. So many good ideas. Thank you thank you!
awesome! Thanks :)
Monique M agree! Love the family meal prep.
I'd also like to see more prep& freeze meal ideas.
yes please! keep them coming!
Yes so rare on RUclips and such great ideas! Thanks!!
I've always been wary of meal prepping because eating food cooked 4-5 days ago makes me nervous, but this approach (prepping, but freezing) is great. Thanks for all the tips.
My pleasure, thank you!!
A great way to "meal prep" without cooking g everything ahead of time is to prep all of the components of the meal instead of the whole meal. Cutting down on the cooking preparation is USUALLY the longest part of every recipe.
@@corinawohlfert1787 great tip!
The quality of your videos is unbelievable! Keep up the good work
thank you so much!!
My 7yr old son was just saying he wanted to watch your videos. haha. He likes the special effects. All three of my kids do. This family edition meal prep is VERY helpful! Yay!! Going to do some of these things tomorrow!!
that is so cool! It makes my day!! Thanks :)
💖
A Beautiful Horizon
Genuinely the best edited and well thought out videos on RUclips - so glad I've found you!
Also I have the same Oxo pop storage containers :D (best ones ever!)
thank you so so much! I really appreciate it!
Nice idea on the oatmeal for the week! Much better than the expensive sugar loaded individual packs of instant oats.
Yeah! And so easy to prep!! thanks :)
So overnight oats confuse me....do you heat them in the morning? I don't think I would like to eat it cold...if so, about how long? I have been wanting to try them but was unsure...HELP!!
Yeah, that is what I mean...I don't think I'd like it cold. So I was wondering how it would be if you heated it?
its good warm. mame a small batch try it cold and then heat it up try it then and see which you would perfer. For me I don't p ike mushy oatmeal bso younmay want to adjust the liquid. I also added a bit of granola for some crunch after heating in the microwave for about 40 seconds
Are the 8 oz mason jars large enough to add toppings in the morning and put lid back on and take to work? I don't own any mason jars and want to purchase right size, thanks.
tbh, i watch alyssia's videos 90% bc of the quality content and 10% bc i absolutely love her voice LOL
Ha thank you! :)
Thanks so much for the video! This is exactly what my family and I need every week to get through the whole week. So much food and prepping and cooking. Thanks a lot and please keep these videos coming!
My pleasure, thank you! So glad you found it useful :)
your channel is the best channel ever! I do not know how you do it but you are always getting better and better!
That's such an amazing compliment!! Thank you so much, Patricia! :) :)
This video was very im-press-ive! What a great "munch" of ideas!
LOL! 😂 love itttt
LOVE. Thanks for all the hard work and time you put into these videos. You give GREAT ideas!!!!! Keep'em coming!
I appreciate it, thank you!!
Omg, I homeschool my 3 kids plus my diabetic husband is currently disabled and all I can think of is having meals pre made breakfast, lunch and dinner which means I have more time during week to wash clothes, clean house, pay bills, etc.... love it!!
Freezer sandwiches are genius!
They're so convenient! Glad the idea can be useful for you!
I really appreciate the amazing editing in each video apart from your informative and helpful content! Please keep up the good work Mind over Munch! I'll always recommend you to my friends interested to make a diet change!
Thank you, so glad you enjoy!! Your support is very much appreciated :) :) :)

This couldn't have come at a better time! My mother and I are trying to stop from eating out so much so this will be a perfect guideline to helping the family stay on track. Thanks!
awesome!! Thank you :)
Thank you so much for this! Before I had kids, I got so much inspiration for individual meals so this is so great! 😊
More freezer slow cooker meals please! Great video!
great! More to come, and be sure to check out my last freezer meals video because there are a few slow cooker ones there too :)
Loving all the videos! Have you ever thought about doing one about bars (protein bars, luna, kind, etc...) and which ones are your favorite and which ones are pretty much a candy bar? I'd loovveee to see that!!!
yes! I actually did a protein bar review video a loooong time ago where I point that out and compare to candy :)
Awesome!!! I'll have to check the archives :-)
YES!!!!!!! Thank you! LOVE this family meal prep! Now I can drag my husband and son along with me!
haha!! thank you :)
So many great ideas/tips in 11 minutes! Great job as always!

Thank you! So glad you enjoyed it!
Alyssia, you are awesome and so inspiring. I am so grateful for all your inspiration, help and tips.
Thank you. For everything!
I appreciate that, thank you!
You make such quality videos with amazing editing and shots. You make the food look delicious and easy to make! I was just wondering how much time you spend on a video like this and do you have anyone to help you?
Thank you so much! We are a small team of 4 people- meal prep videos are the most intensive, and take around 50-60 hours to make, so it really means so much to us when viewers enjoy them :) Thank you for the support!
Hilarious intro! I'm excited to try these! My mom gets so annoyed when my food takes up the fridge, now I can tell her it's for her too lol
lol! That is funny! Thank you!!
Thank you so much for this meal prep! As usually we cannot wait to try your meal prep this Sunday! Your videos are made so professional, educational and funny!
My pleasure, so glad you enjoy the videos here!! I hope the prep turned out well :)
This is so helpful!! I love how you put the ingredients and instructions in the description. Thank you for this awesome video!

Martin Quang There would be so many dislikes from people trying to make her appear 😂😂

That is so amazing, congratulations!! We may someday, we probably should get married first haha 😅😂
I may be biased, since I already love your videos, but I think I was waaaay too amused by your cheesy, "im-PRESSED" pun...

Thank you so much! I have been introduced to meal prep, however it was in a way that was not suitable for a family (the same things every day for a month or two). This is exactly a good way to balance it all out!
thank you!
Love your videos! As a homeschooling mom though, this video takes the cake for me. I'm always looking for ways to be less disruptive to our school schedule and start our mornings easier. Thanks for making healthy meal choices seem so simple.
Thank you! I'm so glad this video will be useful for you!

I was a complete Food Prep Newbie before I found your channel and now I feel like I can prep like a Pro. Your videos are fun, insightful, simple to follow, and friendly! Unlike other Preppers I've found, you explain everything in a way that educates and informs, without overloading us with inundated details.
My pleasure, so glad these videos are useful for you!! :)

I would love to see some basic seasoning formulas to help with my meal prep. You have inspired me to prep my grains, my proteins, my vegetables...but what do I season them with?!

Great! Love the family meal planning!!
