On my website there are hundreds of meal prep, snack, and macro friendly dessert recipes that I have developed over the years. There are no targeted ads, no pointless life stories and endless scrolling to get to the ingredient list, just the recipes. I have a subscription based model where Gold Members have access to every recipe on the site, which is under $5/month with annual memberships. If that's not your thing, there is also a Silver level membership that is free for life, still ad free, and you get access to a good amount of the recipes. Registering to become a member, whether that is a Gold or Silver (free) member, is the best way you can help support what I do. I appreciate all of you more than you know 😎

More 1000+ calorie meals please, these are awesome

Agreed! So good 👍

[@hiimtummy]

@@TheMealPrepManual Yes please, this is the perfect video, my skinny ass needs some bulking help

yes!! i have trouble finding high protein high cal meals, this would be a great idea josh cortis

[@rxwandt4r795]

​@@hiimtummy sameee

[@TheMeetymeet]

I can never get tired of burrito bowls. They're seriously the easiest things to ever make and the reward to put the time and effort is the best. Keep the great work, man.

[@TheMealPrepManual]

So good

[@JC-Alan]

They just reheat really well. A lot of meal preps are decent but they're not the best for reheating... Burrito bowls are amazing in this regard.

[@BeachesFinest]

That chop, extra marinade and broil technique is game changing

[@SolidStuDoo]

Second this! I’ve been doing something like this every Sunday for meal prep the last couple of months and the resulting meals are AWESOME!

[@BiologicalComputer]

I’ve been air frying chicken then shredding it and rubbing it around till it’s seasoned throughout but now I’m gonna try thus technique it looks fire

[@miaou972]

my marinade was super liquidy any way to ensure the texture comes out thicker and creamier?

[@owenrackham5963]

​@@miaou972 try reducing the liquids by 5ml Or alternatively you can use some plain flour to thicken the marinade, hope this helps!

[@bulletz202]

Strait to the point, no BS, just tells you what to do with just the right amount of detail. By far my favorite meal/ fitness KZbinr 👌

[@digitalphoenix72]

I'm so glad I found this channel, meal prep is the one aspect I have the biggest trouble with when it comes to bodybuilding (recipes, cleanup, time consumption, etc), and this channel makes it so much easier! Also helps that you have a sense of humor haha

[@Smadnick929]

I love these videos man! They’re super helpful and convenient and I love having these new recipes to work with! Thanks Josh!

[@tylerjohnson7414]

It doesn’t get any better than this. Can’t thank you enough for this amazing content

[@techniek3422]

Omg yes, by far my new fave meal prep dish. I sometimes get tired of eating the same meal 5 days in a row (or spaced out over a week), but not with this divine creation. Great job! 👩‍🍳 💋

[@jamesmay8740]

Dude you saved my life actually, I was losing so much weight so fast it was unreal, did one of your meal preps and I can already tell a difference in my energy levels. Depression is one son of a b****.... Ima keep at it Thank-you!!!

[@boysii7018]

This is the best tasting meal prep I have made, it’s unbelievably good 10/10

[@doctorcoaster]

Was planning a burrito bowl of my own this week. PERFECT timing!

[@jonnytap]

There is such a lack of Mexican-inspired meal prep dishes for hypertrophy on YT. I grew up eating rice, pinto beans, tortillas, and salsa so this is the best thing I could ever ask for! Thanks for this video

[@robertmurphy8384]

Great recipes, great cooking techniques, and great narrating as well. Thanks 👌🏼👌🏼

[@antoncvetkov8602]

YOU, SIR are a treasure. Thank you, for the effort and time you put into making these videos!

[@charlesdunn21]

Really enjoyed this video, very informative and explained easily. Can't wait to try this!👍🏻

[@robertshiple]

amazing as always Josh. I agree with others that more 1000 calorie videos would be super helpful!

[@MrChazwee]

Absolute game changer, Just discovered your channel. I love how you include how easy the meal is to eat into the equation. Most recipes I come across will just give you a mountain of bland food that's an ordeal to get down. Never clicked subscribe faster, keep up the good work sir 👍

[@mithraperera6975]

Exactly what I was looking for! Great video!

[@Cherneyofficial]

Thanks for the high calorie meals. I have been trying to gain weight and having more variety for high calorie meals has been awesome. Thanks!

[@philipberry1349]

Looks good. Will have to try this

[@ange8703]

I’m a young student and just started strength training. Needed to figure out a meal prep situation instead of ordering out so much. I also struggle eating a lot of calories. I rarely cook for myself I’m just learning to do so. I followed this recipe and it was amazing! Super easy to follow along and didn’t take too long to make. Literally taste like a chipotle bowl. Super tasty! So happy I found this because it’s giving me confidence to cook for myself more. Thank you!

[@Newuxtreme]

Random comment I know, but if you haven't yet, you should try out Hello Fresh for like 2 months or so. I didn't know how to cook jack diddly until maybe even 29 or so until I took hellofresh for a few months and now I have everyone dying to eat my food. Most importantly, it has made me love my own bodybuilding so SOOOOOOO much more, because now all the food I make, from chicken to beef, steaks, CnR, Burritos, Pizzas, Burgers and everything in between, EVERYTHING tastes fucking awesome.

[@AbhishekSharma-uj8iq]

loved this!

[@OoFaeHeartoO]

My boyfriend and I love this channel! Thank you for all the content you creat! 🙏🏻❤️

[@mariah1245]

I made this! Absolutely delicious

[@dominickast2845]

Just a little tip! I always had a little splash of OJ to my lime rice for a more citrusy flavor, always turns out perfect.

[@brassyjazzful]

Just made this tonight, can't wait to try it....I'd eat one now but I'm still working on Big Boy Chili, which was also definitely a winner. I'm not sure why I've never made cornbread muffins before.

[@PikeFitness]

You're our hero this week!

[@ATaylor9223]

Thank you for existing 🤙🙌🙏💪

[@captainteemo3265]

this is the only meal prep ive seen that actually looks good

absolutley earned a sub for this meal right here.

I luved the recipe!.. i will try it!

[@massimo8408]

This is amazing, I'm trying to get weight and this will make it so much easier!

And as a bonus, the thumb-on-top pronated fork grip helps build forearm strength while you eat...

[@Saihbreas28]

I stopped watching a video on ancient technology for this? ABSOLUTELY! Never miss one of your videos, Josh!

[@aetrew5499]

Thanks boss. The chilli one gave me the runs, but I'm feeling good about this one.

[@x1zn998]

this channel is a gold mine

[@shredwerd009]

Ah yes chipotle without the declining quality and increasing prices. I'm still trying to lose weight but if i start bulking i will definitely try this. Thanks again for a great recipe!!

[@nevertellmethaoddz8581]

These are an absolutely fantastic help. +1 for more high calorie meals 🔥

Good to hear 🫡

[@avqc954]

What a clean af video

[@lancefreezeify]

This meal is extremely good. I ended up preparing about 7 of them. So good. It truly might be my favorite

[@alfiesands622]

Can you freeze them since they last 5 days

[@lancefreezeify]

so i didnt freeze any, i think that its ok not too if you eat the last one by the 7th day. but i do think they will still be good if you do freeze some!@@alfiesands622

[@khyogre]

Man just be drinking from a mixing bowl like it aint a thing. Love your sense of humour mate, great recipe too.

[@johnmcdonald6010]

This was wicked. 10/10

[@brickies_laptop]

Great Video!

[@46GanG]

POV: 👀 me looking thru your videos to figure out my meal prep for the week for future juicy gains! 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾🔥🔥🔥

[@owenrackham5963]

I've just made this meal prep recently and oh my god this tasted amazing!!!!!!! Had time to marinade the chicken for 8 hours and it came out the oven so juicy and tender with buckets of flavour. And you're right too, its so easy to eat/ get down you!!!! Couldn't find any pinto beans in the UK so I had to substitute for black beans, but it still worked nevertheless. Thank you for this recipe sir🎉🎉🎉

[@alexandred.4248]

Exact same from me, except I didn't marinate the chicken and it was still juicy.

[@krissynicholas3892]

This is so helpful for us trying to gain weight! thanks for posting! :)

This is my favorite video.❤

[@kentuckybagel]

Awesome video. I will be making this. I noticed your shoes during the sponsored segment. Do you like the whitins?

[@zackthelegend2728]

This is a game changer ❤

[@EEF5004]

thank you so much!❤

[@thecooldude5677]

YES!!! MORE HIGH CAL PLEASE !!!!

[@lisakukla459]

This looks great. I'm a big fan of chicken thighs, but I pressure can it in big batches and just pull a pint off the shelf as needed.

[@rbain2813]

I'm doing the absolute opposite of bulking, but this recipe looks tasty, and is easily moddable to drop some cals. Good work man, keep it coming.

[@TheMealPrepManual]

😎😎😎

[@digitalphoenix72]

Just out of curiosity, did you end up tweaking the calories and experimenting with it? I've still got another 3 weeks of cutting before my calories increase, and I was curious how your idea turned out.

[@Leap623]

@@digitalphoenix72 Not who you asked but using the counts from his website, if you cut the potatoes, cheese and sour cream, one of the cans of beans, and naturally the oil you cook the potatoes in, you can cut the total calories to around roughly 3700 while still keeping a lot of the key flavors. You can then split that 6 ways for ~620 calories per serving based off my very rough math. You can reduce the amount of rice if you still need less calories, every cup you omit should take ~34 calories off each of those six servings. I kinda went for an in-between by cutting the potatoes and splitting it into 6, and I think it's still very tasty and filling.

[@uroztas]

After 40 videos of youtuber talking about their life (which I don't care about) Finally a meal prep video, Thanks man Subscribed !

[@mompreneurlife]

❤ how flavorful! 1000 cal isn’t so bad. Thank you for sharing.❤

[@Hey_Jony01]

Love your content, hugs from Brasil

[@TheMealPrepManual]

Obrigado 😎

[@matspedersen505]

HELL YEAH FINALLY A HIGH CALORIE MEAL PREP AGAIN!!!

[@normiedeathsquad40]

To the marinade to take it to the next level add MSG for a deep flavour. And backing soda as this prevents the muscle fibres in the chicken from contracting, making the chicken very tender.

[@greensmurf221]

Just tried them myself. I think I was a little lack luster with the salt and pepper, but otherwise, very delicious. Thanks for the recipe!

[@wyattrobinson621]

Why he hold the fork like that 😂

[@nematoad]

Thats what I was thinking too 😂

Looks good tbf

[@alfredorock-flores8480]

Looking good 😎👌

[@chrisnolan4048]

This looks a really interesting. I am curious if you could do or have a weight loss version of this meal

[@paulkearney6716]

Hey Josh, love this video and your channel! I am doing my own burrito bowls at home, and I was using the Trader Joe's Taco Seasoning until I saw how much sodium was in it. Do you recommend the mix of Paprika, Cumen, Garlic Powder, Onion Powder, and Ancho Chili to be an alternative taco seasoning mix? Thanks!

[@sck7458]

Ayoo this looks good🔥

[@Lexipie222]

Omg this shits so good I’ve been making every meal that you have on here and 10/10 I’d eat this shit all the time

[@greensmurf221]

Those look delicious! Hell could even wrap it in a tortilla if you really want and don't mind the extra carbs.

[@corymartini4658]

The cheeky Michael Douglas name drop 😆

Bro, I fucking love you! Thank you for saving my bulk!

[@martysboringblog]

Here to comment on the fork holding to see if he changes it up again 😂😂 Fantastic recipe, btw

[@mythicalnoodlez9997]

Maybe you could do a base recipe for the baked oatmeal so we can add whatever we want

[@madelinecalderon375]

I loved this video and then I seen how he holds his fork and took that like back IMMEDIATELY

[@cxmacaroni]

A tip if you can afford to spend a little more money to save time: You can get grilled adobo chicken from Qdoba’s catering menu for like $14, it comes with a bit over 2lbs of chicken. I do it because I’m super busy and protein is what takes the most time for me to prep. I’ve also bought rotisserie chicken from Cotsco and shredded it. I save money by cooking everything else so it evens out.

[@ethansnyder3401]

$14 for 2lbs of grilled chicken is not bad at all.
