Meal Prep For A College Student - Meal Prepping

[@bonniegable7]

hey college students here's a tip. If your dining hall lets you get to go containers you can go to the salad bar pre chopped veggies and then go home and cook them that's what I used to do and it was the bomb

[@castillo5085]

Bobby is saving my life with these recipes. I would be eating pb&j sandwiches everyday if it weren't for these videos.

[@BobbyParrish]

I do love me a PB&J sando, but we gotta spice it up every once in a while ;) Thanks much!

[@badtothetrombone3827]

this video was super helpful for me. When I moved off to college, I noticed that I was starting to lose weight because I wasn't getting the normal meals that my mom would make for me at home. Given my busy life style sometimes miss meals, but now that I have this video I am definitely going to be prepping meals for the week. Thank you 👍

[@yasminaquino7970]

coming back to this recipe after a couple years.. all ingredients were prepped yesterday, can't wait to start cooking when i get home!!

[@johexxkitten]

Sesame oil is like a miracle in a bottle, whatever flavour you have, throw in a bit of sesame oil and BOOM! Your turned up the flavour to 11. I need to definitely try this one, I might even be able to sneak quinoa past my husband ;)

[@BobbyParrish]

Toasted sesame oil, the miracle worker ;) I think your hubby won't even notice!! ha

[@rebeccakassahun3540]

Bobby, your recipes are like Christmas gifts 🎁 but like, every Friday. 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

[@BobbyParrish]

Ha, you are too kind! The gift that keeps on giving..every friday morning that is ;) #KeepOnCooking!

[@JoseGarcia-bw9go]

YAY!!! talk about some good stuff! I was craving Asian food. Then Boom Bobby came in clutch! Thanks Bobby! hopefully you can help college/young professionals with a budget grocery store trip and meal prep! Thanks again!

[@BobbyParrish]

Thanks Jose, I could feel your craving and wanted to hook you up ;) Budget meal prep coming in 2 weeks ;)

[@petricedobson7836]

FlavCity with Bobby Parrish what else can you use if you don't like hot stuff?

[@blackbeast3867]

FlavCity with Bobby Parrish .can you tell us the amount of all products.i mean how much chicken you use and other things olease

[@ICU--ww2bc]

FlavCity with Bobby Parrish cool guy with easy to cook recipes.

[@outbackshredders3762]

How many grams of everything do I need please you have the best healthy meal prep I’ve seen so please tell me

[@Artliker1234]

can you do a big variety video about prepping quick healthy snacks that fit into fitness goals? or healthy snack brands that you like? or just snack tips? My big traditional 3 meals definitely fit into my macros and fitness goals, but I think like most people I fall off my eating goals between meals.

[@BobbyParrish]

You are not the first person to ask that, so I will defo add it to my list. That's a good point point about people falling off inbtwn meals ;)

[@Artliker1234]

FlavCity with Bobby Parrish yay I'm so excited, such great quality video like usual!

[@gideonafari5378]

FlavCity with Bobby Parrish can you send a shopping list for this video

[@giovannaprit]

Another great recipe with lots of flavor! Love that you used quinoa so good!

[@BobbyParrish]

Welcome to flavor city baby, accepting new residents asap :)

[@shawnpaul9746]

It's 2020 but I have just discovered all of your videos, Bobby. One of the best meal prep channels in all of youtube! Thank you so much! From Malaysia

[@andrewperederiy2119]

I made this meal tonight for the entire week. upped the portions a little bit...but good lord the chicken was phenomenal. that sweet chili sauce evened out the spice. and the stir fry with quinoa is just goodness. thank you so much Flavcity

[@BobbyParrish]

That's awesome Andrew, so glad to hear that!! Enjoy the goodness all week and stay tuned for a new meal prep video friday ;)

[@mycatsaysmeow1]

I made this meal today. The quinoa fried rice was a bit more work than I thought, but the thighs were much easier than I thought and they taste amazing and are juicy. I'll probably borrow this chicken thigh recipe for a ton of other meal preps. Thanks Bobby!

[@BobbyParrish]

So it sounds like the two balanced each other out in terms of the amount of work ;) Glad you liked it!

[@justsnazz6282]

making this meal this Sunday! Thank you and keep posting these gems! 🌞🌞🌞🌞

[@BobbyParrish]

Awesome, make sure to tag me on social media when you do ;)

[@BobbyParrish]

Sounds like the best accident to ever happen!! Thanks for the love, this is where I get my shirts: www.flavourgallery.com/collections/mens

[@EyeDoodles]

Hey Bobby, I am usually not one who would comment on a video but I have to say that I tried this recipe but using chicken breasts instead and it was so good!!! 5 spice powder is something I have in our home pantry as an Asian. So glad this recipe inspired me this week. Keep up the great work!

[@BobbyParrish]

So happy to hear that you rocked this recipe..and it motivated you to leave a comment ;) 5 spice is magical, good move on the chicken breasts!

[@CharlotteTranp]

just what i need after several days of different pasta sauces :X

[@dare2wow]

Im glad I found your channel. My biggest issue with meal preps is that I run out of ideas on what to make and get tired of eating the same thing too many times. Def going to try this sometime.

[@BobbyParrish]

Glad you found me too! Meal preps can get boring, so I try to keep them exciting and tasty ;)

[@AnnoyingInflatable]

just made this, the fried rice quinoa was incredible. Don't forget to salt the beaten egg before adding!

[@BobbyParrish]

so glad you enjoyed it..and good call ;)

[@kaceywaceyy]

Why did this remind me of souya and fried rice 😂Whose else is Nigerian out here??

[@BobbyParrish]

Wow, thanks for the love Heather! Lots of good options to choose from, let me know how the cooking goes ;)

[@pearleeannea9715]

Another awesome recipe! Hey Bobby, if you don't want to use a microwave to reheat your meals, you should get a HotLogicMini portable oven. I use mine to reheat my meals at work, and I absolutely love it!

[@BobbyParrish]

That's funny you mention that, someone else was just telling me about it!

[@Arecapalm24]

Made a big batch of the quinoa tonight for my meal prep. Came out excellent. Thanks for the recipe! I know this one had an Asian flavor to it. Keeping with the theme, I'd love to see some sort of healthy pad thai meal prep in the future.

[@BobbyParrish]

So glad the recipe worked out well! I do love me some pad thai, I'll add it to my list ;)

[@yazidsaidi2479]

[@ashleykrueger7106]

Hey man! I went to college in Madison too! So cool! :) Thanks for the great tips, definitely going to try this.

[@BobbyParrish]

Very cool fellow Badger! Let me know how it goes :)

[@kendellkryptonite2561]

I subscribed I like your videos and they are so easy to understand. Would you do a video for microwave only recipes? Kind of for dorm living, or limited resource cooking.

[@juliagoulia9111]

What!!!! fried rice...can't wait to make this dish. Hey Bobby, can you figure out how to make the egg bites from Starbucks, they are so tasty but super pricey....Thank you!!!!

[@BobbyParrish]

You're gonna love it Julia! That's a good idea, a breakfast meal prep that also makes healthier and cheaper versions of starbucks items. Pure gold!

[@bonniegable7]

can you do more recipes with skinless chicken breast with tips for keeping it most. mine always comes out dry. thanks!!

[@bonniegable7]

moist not most

[@BobbyParrish]

Buying your chicken breasts "butterfly" is the key. Check out this video: www.flavcity.com/chicken-meal-prep

[@Allisonnnnnx]

As an Asian girl, I actually want to make quinoa fried rice :) I got everything I need but just need quinoa 😂

[@BobbyParrish]

Thank you for that Asian support, ha!! Let me know how it goes :)

[@karabellaluna27]

love it! I'm for sure making it!

[@BobbyParrish]

Awesome, let me know how it goes!

[@pmqtpqbtmz3956]

2 hours at the grocery store and 3 hours to cook. Burnt the chicken and ended up with food poisoning. Definately college.

[@Sund3v3]

Haha, love your shirt, Bobby :D

[@TheCompton1963]

[@BobbyParrish]

Ha, I feel ya :) I think you need one too: www.flavourgallery.com/products/kaled-it-womens-scoop

[@savagevirgin8729]

Great video Bobby, I have a few ideas if you don't mind: Mexican food, pizza, sandwiches??? idk tho whatever is cool to you

[@BobbyParrish]

Thanks much! I like all those ideas ;) I'll add it to my list.

[@TheAsdfghjk123]

More college prep videos !!!

[@BobbyParrish]

I love the college meal preps also, will do!

[@TheDeerhunter358]

fairly new subscriber here. Your vids are awesome, Ive have already tried a couple different preps and they are fantastic.

[@BobbyParrish]

Thanks for the sub and the kind words! Next video coming at ya tomorrow morning ;) Make sure to tag me on social media next time so I can see your meal prep!

[@stacyh8901]

Great video! Would love to see another for students!

[@sullystone307]

this is great ill just use coconut oil and add avocados, super good.

[@BobbyParrish]

+Sully Stone that works, enjoy!

[@sullystone307]

Thanx, awesome channle.

[@akashshah1907]

I cooked this . It tastes awesome and so yummy. House smells yummy :)

[@BobbyParrish]

Love to hear that, great job!

[@Phoenix-cq7xh]

Much healthier than takeout and probably a lot tastier too. You just never know what you're getting with takeout sometimes. Can you recommend an alternative to the five spice rub, please? I'm allergic to fennel. The quinoa fried rice looks great. Is that toasted sesame oil you used? I'll definitely try this and avoid feeling guilty for getting the fried rice at the local Chinese restaurant!

[@BobbyParrish]

So much tastier and healthier than takeout! You can make a seasoning of 1 teaspoon cumin , 1/2 teaspoon coriander, 1/4 teaspoon each cinnamon and cloves. Yes, I am using toasted sesame oil. Let me know how it goes!

[@daricnd]

yummy

[@MunkeeLuv24]

You're awesome!

[@NinaNinaNB]

Bobby I wasn't sure who you reminded me of... now I know. You are the Depeche Mode lost member! yay 😁 back in the 80s. Great recipes, thanks a lot! and please remember you have viewers outside the USA, it'd be great if you include grams and ml and so ... maybe in the description box? and please do not refer me to Google the cups and so 😐. Thanks so much for the ideas and the recipes, I really like them.. here having the cauliflower and sweet potatoes you showed long ago.

[@BobbyParrish]

Depeche mode, I totally forgot about that band!! How about I add grams & ml in the actual recipe on my website? Hope you are enjoying the cauliflower and sweet tators ;)

[@NinaNinaNB]

FlavCity with Bobby Parrish Bobby Parrish that would be very nice! I find that some KZbinrs forget their audience outside the US, believe me it would make things easier for ppl like me, using the metric system. I will appreciate it VERY much. I'm glad I found your channel. The veggies were great btw. Big hello from Switzerland 😊

[@joslinnick]

I never knew Jim Carrey could cook!

[@davidbeiler6364]

Jim Carrey is actually funny... not sure who this guy is

[@jewelblue8496]

[@twisty0079]

love your wedding band it's not that cheap AZZ gold band that I hate yours rock.

Thanks Lynda, I designed it myself ;) Defo not cheap azz

[@asiyaahmed4674]

Would you be able to do meal preps and/or suggest meal ideas for body building/gaining mass for someone just starting out with weight training? I have a great workout regimen but haven't quite figured out a clean, healthy but delicious meal plan to supplement it.

[@BobbyParrish]

Blast your biceps and then eat this: www.flavcity.com/burger-fries-meal-prep High protein and good complex carbs

[@ChelleBear7]

yay great video definitely doing this

[@BobbyParrish]

Thanks much, let me know how it goes!

[@crazyferretlady6722]

"Kale'd it"

[@hospitalcakewalk]

Imma need to make this!!! :D It looks amazing (although i would add a bit more Sriracha!!)

[@linaadams138]

I hate quinoa so can I use brown rice, same amount? Love your meal prep.

[@NinaNinaNB]

Lina Adams same for me...

[@BobbyParrish]

Use the same amount of brown rice and make sure to let it dry out after you cook it, just like I said in the video :)

[@brendaggarcia1730]

Hey bobby your recipie is awesome your awesome and ever since i saw you i subscriped and helped a brother out ❤❤ ya have a nice one

[@BobbyParrish]

Thanks for hooking up a brother, ha!! BTW, you are pretty awesome too :) #KeepOnCooking

[@cynthiagauthier-houle8664]

I will definitely try this one. Haha! Like a boss 🤣

[@BobbyParrish]

You are gonna rock it like a boss! Make sure to tag me on social media when you do ;)

[@CoD_Maj3st1k]

I keep seeing videos suggesting chicken thighs are cheaper than boneless chicken here in Texas it's the opposite. 1.99lb for boneless and almost double in price for thighs :(

[@BobbyParrish]

What!? That is pure craziness, I have never seen that :0

[@CoD_Maj3st1k]

Next time I'm at the store I will post a screenshot. Makes no sense to me. Even at Walmart of all places.

[@thetruth4335]

this made me smile☺ thank you

[@BobbyParrish]

+the truth any time ;)

[@SpzProz]

Hey Bobby, just a quick question, how long does something like this keep in the fridge? Some pointers would be appreciated! :D

[@BobbyParrish]

Did you watch until the end? I keep mine in the fridge for 5 days and re-heat in the oven, tastes great! or freeze for 2-3 months.

[@ViolentDetour]

Man! I got ahead of myself and put the sweet chili on the chicken before the rub... Guess I'll let you guys know how it turns out.

[@sheeplvl1]

Disclaimer: You are not going to find the sweet chili sauce in Asia. It's an American/Western thing. It's just like you wont' find any "Hawaiian Pizza" in Hawaii and etc.

[@BobbyParrish]

Yup, we like to do that in America ;) Make stuff up

[@lordmax481]

How do you cart the food around for work or school if you have to heat it in the morning for example and then eat it 4 or 5 hours later? doesn't the food get in the danger zone in the meantime?

[@greentokki]

Bobby, where can I get that green plate you put your chicken on? I need a big plate like that. Thank you! :)

[@BobbyParrish]

Here you go! amzn.to/2qhne9k

[@carynpianist5107]

it looks super tasty! you made me hungry now and it's midnight here haha I'd dream about eating this haha well, I'd try to make this, but quinoa is expensive here any substitution? does it work on lentils or brown rice?

[@BobbyParrish]

You ca use brown rice and make sure you dry it out after it's made, just how I talk about in the video. It will be tasty as can be!

[@carynpianist5107]

FlavCity with Bobby Parrish alright, I'm gonna try it out ASAP 😆

[@Iamsaved689]

hey bobby, quick question. The tray you use to place the raw chicken on, where did you get it? Please give a link. Thanks for another awesome recipe. Hi Desi!

[@BobbyParrish]

Thanks much! Here you go: amzn.to/2qhne9k

[@caylieb5403]

Can you do a recipe with Orzo? I have a bag I don't know what to do with.

[@BobbyParrish]

It's too high in calories and carbs for healthy meal preps, but this recipe is legit: www.flavcity.com/crispy-shrimp-with-herby-orzo-salad

[@brittanil.1415]

instead of soy sauce do you think it would be just as good to use Braggs Liquid Aminos? My family tends to use that instead of soy sauce.

[@BobbyParrish]

I recently used that stuff and it had a really salty flavor. So start by using just a little, and add more if needed. Enjoy!

[@adb2506]

Why not use sesame oil to cook the chicken when going for the oriental flavor?

[@BobbyParrish]

You can defo do that, I only had toasted sesame oil, which I dont like to cook over high heat.

[@phobilao]

Could you please put an ingredient list in the description box?

[@BobbyParrish]

Ingredient list and full recipe are on my site, link is always in the description box.

[@patkelly6357]

Is there a substitute for the egg? Or can I leave it out? I am allergic to eggs.

[@candismorton]

you are awesome! Do you have your menus written.

[@BobbyParrish]

Thanks Candi, every recipes is on my website and printable! www.flavcity.com/meal-prep-recipes

[@candismorton]

thank you!

[@MrGemma0]

Is there a non sugar filled sweet chilli sauce?

[@JakobStrand]

I´m intolerant to bird protein i.e. chicken. Can I make this dish with pork or something else? Quorn maybe?

[@BobbyParrish]

Boneless pork chops that are pounded thin, ask your butcher to do that :)

[@dfitz7366]

Hey does the chicken and rice/quinoa last for 5 days because you used glass containers instead of plastic . I really like your recipes and tutorials and want to start meal prep I just don't want to get sick because I left it in the fridge to long

[@BobbyParrish]

It really does last for 5 days, you wont get sick. Or you can keep 3 days of it in the fridge, and freeze the other 2. When ready to eat, just reheat and put it in your pie hole ;)

[@dfitz7366]

Haha thanks Bobby ! Keep up the good work man , really good vibes and thanks for getting back to me so soon !

[@robertrockwell6996]

no deep tissue...just Swedish here...I actually laughed out loud

[@BobbyParrish]

:)

[@springfieldzzz]

Subbed. Glad I found your channel :) Btw what is your favorite grocery store in Madison?

[@BobbyParrish]

Glad you found me too! I dont remember having a fav store, but the farmers market on the weekends on the square was awesome ;)

[@faithrada]

Is this '5 Spice' the same as Garam Masala???

[@kenmojo6519]

Holy carbs! The five spice powder cost so much here in the Philippines. Any alternative spice?

[@BobbyParrish]

darn it!!! Use chili powder with a touch of connamon and cloves ;) Enjoy!

[@itsrobbyjames]

@Bobby, how do you calculate the macros per serving/meal for your recipes ?

[@BobbyParrish]

I use " my fitness pal"..it a great tool for that.

[@miabosco4351]

Swwwweeet! This is awesome, thank you Bobby! (:

[@BobbyParrish]

Your welcome Mia :)

[@bonniegable7]

can you add sugar to the nutritional information thanks

[@BobbyParrish]

I used 3 tablespoons of the sweet chili sauce, and that has 15 grams of sugar.

[@afhudson0105]

TBH, this looks like a yummy dish, but as for a college student, I'm not sure how cost effective it would be for a broke college student. I do want to try this though. That chicken looks bomb.com!

[@BobbyParrish]

Dude, it is bomb! Chix thighs are cheap af and you can defo leave out a few of the ingredients. You can also use white rice which is much cheaper than quinoa also.
