I always meal prep on Monday's - the day before chemotherapy. Tomorrow is my last chemotherapy for my Triple Negative Breast Cancer (stage 2B). I made most of the meals in this video and tagged you on my instagram. Yay ME! I beat Breast Cancer!!! And now I have tasty meals in my refrigerator inspired by you Saralynn! Thank you so much for this video. You made everything so easy for me.

[@kelseyteter7217]

This is the ONLY meal prep video I’ve ever seen that I would literally love to try every single recipe. Your functionality (and puns 🤓🤓) are second to none. I’m so excited to get cooking!! That doesn’t happen often!!

[@samiam9925]

I love that these are so simple that they are easy to customize. For myself, I will add items like Avocado and tomato and leave out the cheese and ranch dressing.

[@samiam9925]

So simple, so healthy, so easy to make. Thanks for the motivation to start meal prepping again

[@aaliyahpierce2783]

These videos bring me so much joy.😊😊😊

[@Jaydit7]

I love this meal-prep video, and the previous one. Almost makes me wish I was still working...nah, I like being retired! I can't wait for warmer weather to make your salads (I do salad prep in the summer for days when I know I'll be way busy) and I already cook chicken and beans in bulk, with some type of starch to go with....wow, these do look good!

[@caitlinpallister9189]

Love love LOVE your meal prep vids and thank you so much for taking the time to include the recipes in the description box so we can all enjoy it :)

[@lieneke6181]

I love this episode, so many vegetarian/fish options! I was so inspired that I immediately made a potato/cabbage/cucumber salad with pangasius, inspired by your potato salmon salad. (Used mustard, oil and sweet chilisauce as a dressing because I didn't have the other ingredients, but it turned out really well.)

[@zceylan]

[@Frostysleet]

All of these look so amazing!!!!! Yummy! Thank you for sharing all these meal prep ideas as I am running out of ideas!

[@ElTiano21]

Hi ,I just discovered your channel and I have to say, I haven't seen anyone on youtube make their meals look as beautiful and appetizing as you do. I'm a flight attendant so I struggle to cook and prep meals that I can carry and that will last me for 3, sometimes 4 days while I travel and I'm away from home.. Do you ever take the food you make to go for a long period? have you traveled with these meals you've made and carried them overnight? Any tips you can give me I would appreciate it. I absolutely love your channel and you have a new fan.

[@sherrydonald9822]

All of these recipes look fabulous ! Thank You !!!

[@chandaharkins4418]

Those black beans look amazing!

[@jodie4748]

My New Years resolution is to make lunch to take to work as I would always just buy pre-packaged sandwiches which are neither cheap or that healthy! I love every single recipe in this video and I’m now so excited to try them all and succeed in my resolution! I also love potatoes and don’t understand why people give them a bad rep! They are healthy, filling and so tasty!

[@KitRedmond1]

These look so good and just what I need for the new year!

This school term I have a crazy 10 hour day, and one of my concerns has been packing something healthy and inexpensive to eat at some point during that stretch. The Mediterranean and Burrito Bowl dishes are perfect for this! Thank you for your creative and simple ideas.

[@thedomesticgeek1]

I tried the Mediterranean Salad and it was delicious! I'm not a lettuce fan either, so this one worked for me! I didn't have cooked orzo on hand, so I subbed with quinoa. I can't wait to cook up some orzo for tomorrow's version!

[@thedomesticgeek1]

These are great for lunch! Let me know if you have a favorite!

[@musicbox2466]

Thank you, Sara! They are very useful, because our holidays are not over yet and we eat a vegan+fish and seafood diet during the first week of January, (i'll skip the meat for now) and I love them all because I love all those ingredients and they are light, but my fav is the bean salad because it is hot and somewhat exotic in my country

[@janesitaandfamily1562]

Thank you love this Meal prep look amazing and delicious

[@hahaha08ify]

I tried your tuna salad from the other video and it was the bomb dot com. Keep on cooking and keep em videos coming! Love you!

That is great news!!! I'll have more Meal Prep recipes coming throughout the month.

[@byronchandler5000]

Hi, Sara Lynn. Your healthy meal preps are exploding in popularity. What's your best tip for making healthy potato chips? Have a good day, Sara Lynn.

[@leilabarajas4576]

Looks yummy. Thank you for great ideas.😁

[@jodiclark9774]

Love your meal preps! You use such a variety of food, is there any food you really don't like?

[@DuluthTW]

These meals are in my future. Thanks!

[@ConnorThouless]

I was BBQin yesterday and it was -17c lol Worth it!

[@SharonCapehart]

Delish! Thank you so much!! XOXO Sharon

[@cmwishon]

All of those look so good!!!

[@Nerdychallengetime]

The one with bbq chicken actually sounds really good down to the core for me. And I don't like salad, and I don't really like veggies in general either. But that one I will actually try. I think that the romaine lettuce do much for me in this one, since I hate iceberg lettuce. Too much water and it easily taste funky to me. Well done, you actually inspired me to make an actual salad!

[@tr738]

Did the burrito bowl tonight. It’s sooo good.

[@CGOnTrend]

thanks so much for these ideas, my daughter is trying to drop some pounds and meal prepping her food will help in our mission.

[@verlaschupbach8102]

so thankful for giving me a new outlook on salads, as I would rather starve than eat a lettuce salad most of the time. I burned out on them a few years ago, (along with chicken breast). Like you, I love the green bean and tomato salad. Such good ideas!

[@thedomesticgeek1]

Variation is definitely key!! Thanks so much for watching!

[@TheJabberCrew]

Our family LOVES chicken meals...Can't wait to try the first one this week =)

[@KimberlyGraciesJourney]

Love meal prep videos! I wish I could do it all the time! 🌟🌟🌟Goals🌟🌟🌟

[@awabia]

Your foods always look so delicious! I looked through your playlists and saw you have one for "one-pan" recipes. Would those work in a crock pot? I just bought a small one and I'd like to start cooking lighter/healthier meals with it! Love your videos!

[@bfvargas8]

[@thedomesticgeek1]

Happy New Year to you too!
