[@checkyourbrakes]

More like this Please! So many things can be frozen, helping families avoid eating out (especially fast food) and helping us avoid junk food but the details matter, and so many recipes come with Zero advice for freezing, thawing, out reheating. There are tons of fresh meals that can be made faster by bulk production of parts that freeze once a month and grabbing those components for the final through together in a weeknight. It improves nutrition and reduces stress, but so little out there comes with those tips, so you have to experiment on recipes you like. If pros like you started giving tips on make-ahead, freeze-ahead parts... We busy parents would be so thankful!!

"Enough for two...let's be real one person" too true...

[@Robinplender]

As a British person hearing Babish say Al-u-mini-um foil, woof! tingles of ecstasy in ma ears.

[@cruachan1191]

Now we need to get him saying herbs instead of erbs, pronouncing basil and oregano the way we do and calling cilantro (or the devil's lettuce) coriander

[@hannahcorinne5388]

And cling film instead of plastic wrap

[@duskmean]

Fun fact. A mini waffle maker works perfect for tiny egg rounds.

[@residentialbookworm1625]

I'm going to be a new mom soon, and I heard meal prep is a game changer, but this is EXCELLENT. Thank you Babish!

[@planchedevereaux4880]

Amazing video! Would love to see a part two (or more) of this. Meal prep is what gets me through the week!

Hey Babish, when you are wrapping sandos with a square parchment paper put it in the middle upside down and fold in with the corners of parchment. Better sando wrapping. Source: ex-concession stand worker.

I wish I would’ve prepped like this before my daughter was born...those first few weeks were spent eating too much take out 🤦‍♀️ this was such an awesome-and helpful- thing to do! Congratulations to Sawyer and his family!! 👏

[@slugdgoz]

When my daughter was born I wasn't at work for about a year. Then I moved to South Korea. When not working all I did was follow food advice like this and made food

[@colinwebb5018]

This was one of the best basics episodes I have seen, great food prep and awesome ideas. Thank you

"Nothing is sadder than an underfilled breakfast burrito." Very true. Many times I have been short in that particular arena, and I have wept.

[@BrainMax_]

A yummy dish to make is Grilled Cheese Sandwich that appeared in Craig of the Creek episode, "Snow Place Like Home"

[@annagrace2029]

Watching the breakfast part I was like “what people think I do when they come to Starbucks and order a breakfast sandwich”

[@thequietgaypotato]

This may sound completely random but Babish looks like the kind of man that would jump at the opportunity to helping Make-a-Wish kid have like a whole little section of a book dedicated to that one thing they make together to I don't know why I'm thinking of this but I am

[@Hexagonaldonut]

Oh he absolutely would be that guy, I'm convinced of it at this point. I'd wager the only reason he *hasn't* done that yet is because the opportunity hasn't arisen.

[@angryblobfish3538]

Please make this a series, this is so useful

[@BrainMax_]

How about making the Mushroom and Bacon Taco from The Simpsons episode, "Panic on the Streets of Springfield"?

I expose our satanic government, I have 2,000,000+ overall channel views.

[@aliwebb]

Would love to see you promoting zero waste/sustainable kitchen practices! I appreciate sometimes you can't do away completely with plastic, but you have an incredible platform to normalize and promote everyday environmentally-conscious behavior :)

[@anonknitter]

The whole point of this is easy meals for new parents, that includes clean-up. A little tinfoil isn't gonna hurt anyone, Ali.

[@twojuiceman]

I'd love to see you make lobster thermidor aux crevettes with a mornay sauce garnished with truffle paté, brandy, and a fried egg on top, and spam

[@neuromancerD]

SO very much this.

[@beslanderin5229]

Every new parent needs a friend like you. Amazing

[@knownofear1]

10:35 Hey, he pronounced it correctly!

[@Juhnaaa]

Aliouminium? 😂

[@pjabrony8280]

Can't believe you didn't say, "Make sure not to overcook. You don't want your chard...charred."

[@alexandercaro5227]

Babish: “Cans of San Marzano tomatoes” Adam Ragusea: *“Y E S”*

[@emilyfraser509]

I have yet to see san marzano tomatoes in Northern Ireland, just basic canned plum tomatoes here. Or the cans of chillies in adobo sauce. And tomatillos. I think I need to do some online shopping lol

[@Kyara7]

Doesn't he use Pastene/Muir Glen mostly now?

[@jacobparsons4611]

@@emilyfraser509 Same here in England. I think we can only order them online sadly.

[@Gamefreak20000]

Can you make more of these, please? I feel like meal prepping would save a lot of time (and dishes) throughout the work week
