I’m glad resubscribe to your channel brother I’ve been dealing with some mental and fatherhood adjustments. I’m glad to be back and see your always trying to get the community to improve. Thank you so much man for the information.

[@FutureFendiFsnista]

Bless you for this! I have been searching for a healthy budget meal prep for months and this one is the best I have seen. I love that you show how much it costs to buy each meal. It helps me plan which meals I can afford to make without compromising on nutrition. Thank you so much!

[@gabriellejosef-marie2980]

I tried them all. Plus it’s even cheaper when you buy the regular rice and if you buy the chicken breast at bj or Costco.

Steak, rice and onions have been my staple for the last year. Most times I swap the asparagus with carrots though. Glad to see this 1 in your video Chris! 🔥

[@PULAG]

Rich as hell dang lol. Eating steak everyday?

[@susanagarza3691]

Wow these look so simple. You are very much appreciated for these videos. Can’t wait for next weeks. Thank you.❤

[@tobysimmondsX]

Thank you so much! These look so delicious and the price is so good!! I will definitely try making these as I’ve been looking for different healthy delicious meals:) thank you so much for all your videos, you never cease to inspire me to become more and more athletic and healthy! ❤

[@Scottpulliam]

Your videos make it difficult for anyone to have excuses! Thanks so much for constantly putting out practical, helpful, useful info and motivation!

[@crunknavajo]

I was waiting for a video like this.. I'm on a budget and trying the workouts but want to know what to eat to keep healthy and fit on a budget. Thanks for keeping the motivation going

[@Qkotoime]

Love the video. In fact, I'd prefer you do more cooking, but that's just me. One thing that I'm not sure if you or your editor kind of doesn't know how it's calculated - 0.1 = 10 cents. 0.01 is 1 cent. Honestly that's the worst thing I could mention in this vid :D everything else is right up my alley

[@Andre-oc7gg]

Also, health tip... if you cook in cast iron you actually get added iron to your diet. Look it up! Non stick is pretty bad for you. Cast Iron lasts forever, if you season the pan frequently it becomes non-stick and you get iron in your diet, but avoid cooking acidic foods like tomato etc in it

[@arihaviv8510]

I'd go with stainless steel...you really want to get iron from food

[@1ZZFE]

Yeap stainless steel is the best.

[@PULAG]

If that's true, wouldn't your iron pan disappear over time from losing so much iron? Lol

[@cvspvr]

doesn't seasoning the pan insulate the iron with polymerised cooking oils, meaning you'd stop getting iron?

[@scott-hr3hd]

Ok I’m sold. You really hit all the bullet points. Your ability to clarify details is superb.

[@rogeliogarcia9970]

Thank you Heria and crew for keeping us healthy!

[@trashmas]

thank you so much for adding a vegan option! I'm currently trying out eating vegan/plant based while still trying to gain bigger muscles, it's new for me but I really enjoy it so far and it felt great to see some encouragement from the ultimate pro who always gives the best workouts, advice and tips!

[@ericdavidwallace]

This was so helpful thank you Chris.

[@the_daydreamingtom]

I’m always happy when a new video comes up from my long-term motivator, mentor, and icon. Those are great and cheap recipes that anybody can do without any complaints. The one fundamental thing from many others I learned from you is that there’s always a choice for you. Thanks, Chris for keeping this up. Take care, brother! ❤

As always brother, a great inspiration. We appreciate the time you dedicate to us.

[@yanirdasa5276]

Love you Chris you’re the man! I started my training about 6 months ago with your videos, i lost 12KG so far and making gains. Just wanted to let you know i appreciate you a lot my friend!

[@rachelsharp7495]

I can’t wait to make these this week 😊 I really admire your discipline and I like that you don’t use foul language in your videos. Some people don’t care, but it’s refreshing to me!

[@zClown6]

Amazing guide! Super healthy and very cheap also easy to make very helpful for people trying to find their ways to make their bodies healthier!

[@sxerralzve2739]

As someone who's been on a bit of a health journey, I've started myself off slow. I find that fast food isn't nearly as appetizing as homecooked meals are! My biggest problems to tackle now are water intake, protein intake, and portion control. I grew up with a bad relationship with food, I never ate. As I moved out and grew older, I only knew how to cook struggle meals in large portions, and never took the time to eat slow and feel myself get full, and I ate when I wanted without having fear. I began eating too much all the time, and gained weight. Which was good! But now I am bigger than I am comfortable with, and am now working out and working towards healthier habits with eating, before jumping myself too far ahead. I am currently learning how to cook, and still getting used to calorie intakes and macros, etc. These meals in this video are incredible for breaking this stuff down for someone like me!

[@THEBEAST-hk8yo]

Great video, needed this 🔥💪🏽

[@JamesP44]

So I've been making the meals from this video along with your breakfast vids and love them so far. Delicious and healthy, can't go wrong! I'm a little late to the party with this channel but I'm feeling motivated to be better for myself since last week and been eating a lot healthier and exercising more thanks to these videos. Yeah been turning over a new leaf lately since over a week ago when I started watching this channel properly. Keep doing what you're doing. Subscribed!

[@JoyfulLivingLinda]

[@Moooozers]

Definitely gonna do this. Thank you so much for me being fit. I've been sick recently. Then I was out of shape. And your workouts made me fit!

[@xrystal89]

I really like the fact that he mentioned time. If people aren’t complaining that healthy eating isn’t cost effective then they’re stating that they don’t have the time, so it’s nice that he shows you can cook these meals typically faster than it takes to wait in traffic to get to the restaurant, wait in the drive-through and then wait in traffic again to get home. Now we just have to consider people who are in food deserts where their nearest grocer is a bloody gas station or dollar store-that’s the hardest thing to solve. Great recipes, reminded me that sweet potatoes are a great, viable side. I used to just eat it by itself

[@michaelanthony1044]

Yessir! Always appreciate the tips chris!!✊💪💪

[@jadacazoe8245]

Thanks Chris I do appreciate your healthy version on how to make spaghetti and meat balls. It's an eye opener for me. Great work with this new concept and keep sending out more nutritional videos for us to learn from.

Thanks great video , finally I found someone who shows everything. 👏👏👏

[@gintonic5770]

Thank you, King! :) The nutrition side of working out was always a part I underestimated and struggled with.

[@IronLionZion429]

Since Badia doesn't say which "spices and herbs" are in complete seasoning, it's most likely cumin coriander, oregano, and parsley. I love it and use it on everything because of Chris Heria's videos.

[@ThatOneGuyEmblem]

man, you are a life saver. I have just a burner and a few basic sauce pans and a cast iron pan with limited utensils as well. so these meals are certainly very helpful! and I love how well thought out and in depth this got! even bringing prices into account! thank you so much for the awesome vid with amazing looking meals.

[@MbisonBalrog]

Seasoning the pan? You must using low low heat. Those seasonings usually burn easy and must people put on after cooking.

[@Lindarianmusic]

Hello, Chris: Thank you for sharing your tips on healthy weight loss. As a woman who is currently 237 pounds, down from 290 pounds eight months ago and looking to end up at my right weight of 145 pounds. Including training to develop a female Samurai's strength, including a toned lean muscle mass and endurance, which will help me to significantly excel in my Samurai arts training. Currently, I'm working out at my local gym four times per week, including completing two light workouts at home on my off days from the gym. I have developed a very healthy diet, such as the one in your video. My favorite would be the rice with Chicken and broccoli this is a great meal and I tend to consume a lot of it. I tend to consume Chickpea pasta and red lentil pasta which is a great source of protein and it is gluten free, which fits my dietary needs -All my best always

[@brettzimmerman4566]

Chris, you content is awesome, I''m learning a ton. Key take aways: I can use the pan for almost all meals, instead of always using the grill which takes time, the avocado oil is key to use along with seasoning, and I can buy instant rice, which I will now do!! Thanks brother!!

[@JUSTRIGHT4U2]

This whole system he’s using is Great!!!! I really wish he could have expanded on the leftovers that you would have from this (even more value!!) LOVE IT!!!

[@Homesowingt73]

I just found your channel and a goldmine of recipes, thanks chris😊

[@mistershuriken7744]

16:06 Chris, may I ask how you did the math here? I researched all the nutritional numbers for every one of your ingredients on the meatball spaghetti broccoli, and I ended up with 726 cal, 61g protein, 49g carbs and 32.3g fat for the indicated portions. The deviation is really hefty, 30% more calories and 61.5% more fat (6 oz lean ground beef seems to have 20g fat as per nutritionix), it doesn‘t look like a rounding error to me. Can you comment please?

[@MIKETHEKING-lx2kg]

Hi Chris, I'm a fan and have been dedicated to my fitness for many years as well. Can you make a video please explaining to people how to properly diet and include carbs in their diet. Almost everyone I see who falls off their dieting goals, gives up or can't see results tries to completely cut out carbs for a very extended period & from my interactions with people seems to be the least talked about but most common issue.

[@ArtixNinjaOfficialMLBB]

Just a tip for the spaghetti. If you don’t want it to stick during boiling you can add a bit of oil and stir Love your videos man, keep it up💪🏼

[@SlickMaximus]

First time I started one arm pushups, one leg squats, and one arm chin up was after applying most concepts in book "Pro Vita Plan" by Jack Tips. Book said protein in beans increases by 4 times when sprouted until 10% have 1/4 inch nub sticking out then cooking at 190 degrees F. I place meat thermometer rod inside pot next to pot edge with dial on top of lid. Sprouted beans also are easier to digest which increases protein absorbed into bloodstream. If this is true, then protein in one cup cooked beans increases from 16 to 64 grams protein. Chris Heria could include the cost per gram of protein in meals. Net protein utilization (NPU%) is percentage protein body can use due to shortage in one more amino acids. NPU% x protein in meal = grams protein body able to use. Plant protein can have low 60% NPU where animal protein usually 80% or higher. Pro Vita Plan book categorizes foods into easy, medium, or hard to digest protein. The body absorbs less protein from hard to digest food, especially an older body.

Faster way to cook brocolli: put it in a microwave safe bowl with a splash of water, then cover with a small plate and blast for 2min. The water evaporates and creates steam. Brocolli is perfectly cooked in 2min. Obviously season however you want.

Just did a meal prep with breakfast burritos. I used chicken chorizo and used the protein wraps. Plus some cottage cheese mixed with the eggs. Bumped the protein up to around 40 grams for 1 burrito. Did the onions and bell peppers the same. I'm cutting weight and training for a jiu jitsu tournament.

[@uncommon6969]

Bro how do you meal prep eggs how many burritos you make when you prep and how much of them you eat in 1 day I meal prep as well but with chicken rice & greens 2 meals a day. So I make a total of 14 meals
