Why freeze them overnight in a tray before freezing them in a ziplock bag?

[@OscarOliu]

@@IMModusOperandi Likely because they are still slightly warm, and if you put them directly in a bag it will create condensation

I've made these twice and they are excellent. I love them! 2nd time I chopped up half an onion and cooked it with the Kale separately to get a good Sautee on the onions. KALE TIP from a different recipe. Take the leaves off the stems and massage the Kale until it softens and darkens. This helps remove some bitterness and makes the Kale less fibrous.

Try making a breakfast casserole with this in it. It is absolutely delicious and the cottage cheese melts and makes the texture amazing. I'm sure ricotta cheese would work as well.

I'm a university student that lives on his own and just lost 5 lbs in the past month because of midterms whilst already being a fairly slim person at 5'10 and 130 lbs usually. Did not expect a video as random as this to rejuvenate me, but I'm super excited now and am going to try and make these for my lunch. Most of the cooking videos I watch end up using way more than they suggested (cough cough Joshua Weissman) and become really elaborate in ways that would maybe be quick for the person making the video but take a lot longer for noobs like me. In sum, thank you for this idea and making sense can't wait to fix my diet with this!

Before I started this channel I had the same complaint with channels like that one. Great recipes, but I always felt they lacked an element of practicality. That’s more my niche. Glad to have you on board, and best of luck!

I was in the same boat as you. 5'10 133. Trick for me was snacking throughout the day. Dont skip your 3 meals, but i usually have a big lunch, breakfast sandwich, smallish dinner, and snacks like protein bars, shakes, oatmeal. With the gym i put on about 20 pounds over a year

A few important suggestions as someone who was the same weight; Firstly, consider smoothies. You probably think you're eating a lot of food, if you were anything like me. You almost certainly aren't. Really high calorie smoothies with things like avocados, frozen berries, oats, milk, whole milk greek yogurt, almost single-handedly managed to add 5 or 10 lbs to me. The other thing I'd suggest is just start lifting weights, if you haven't already. It makes your body feel so much better, builds your appetite, and helps add mass.

[@nana8135]

[@rachelpanacek3007]

For anyone else who loves sour cream with their burritos, I just made these and dipping them in nonfat plain Greek yogurt is an excellent high protein substitution that tastes the same. I haven't tried putting them inside the burrito but I assume it isn't the best when you reheat them. Loved the cottage cheese method! Never seen that before

[@ethanpaff]

I do this as well, and can attest it is a great alternative! Thank you for the tip!

People seem to still be held up on salt. The amount of salt you're adding to your home cooked food is wildly less than the SODIUM added to prepackaged foods. Unless you're already at risk of or have high blood pressure, cooking with a good amount (the correct amount) of salt is probably not going to cause you any issues.

Really great video! This was in the recommendations on a 30 second video on how to wrap a burrito, I've never successfully gotten everything inside without having either several folds of dry tortilla to bite through or filling all over my hands.

Interesting idea, I think I may try that. Any suggestion as to how much?

[@Theffries]

@@TheDarkWallChris I usually do about half a tablespoon water with half a teaspoon of corn starch for every 2-3 eggs. Apparently as water evaporates which would normally lead to dry eggs, with this method the corn starch absorbs the water as well to make it a little creamy. I’ve had people tell me they’re the best scrambled eggs they’ve ever had, when to me it’s just a pretty basic recipe I make and followed Kenji’s methods lol

It's ok you can still use regular cottage cheese! I did because my store didn't have spreadable kind. But I used less than what he did. I basically used 4 tablespoons in 2 lbs of turkey. You gotta be sure to cook the turkey until all of the liquid has either evaporated or cooked back into the meat. This can take a while, like for me I think it was a good 20 min until I added the cottage cheese. It was very creamy at first but not soupy, and I just cooked until all the little curds melted. It came out perfect

​@blgdinger3 Greek yogurt is perfectly good to add just aybe don't use as much as the cottage cheese or it'll be very very creamy. And it also won't add a cheesy flavor, probably be more of a tang.

First of all, screw all of these haters on here. You earned a subscribe from me, bro.

Hi Ethan, my husband and I love this breakfast burrito. I found this video about half a year ago and ever since then we’ve made a batch at least 1-2 times a month. Thank you for the recipe 😁

[@ethanpaff]

That’s great to hear! I’m happy to help!

[@Daryl1016]

Good to see the use of seasonings in this type of recipe. Definitely going to try this one

[@fenitasnl]

Great video man!

[@Snowlily01]

Listen. You should brown the meat first, let it release its water, then when it’s done browning, add the spices at the end. Otherwise your spices are actually burning. These spices don’t really needs to be cooked so it’s better to add them at the end when the meat is done browning. I think this could also use some browned onions. First brown some onions in the pan, then add the meat. This is how we cook a lot of Mughal dishes here in india ❤️

[@ethanpaff]

Thanks for the tip! It probably didn’t show that well in the video, but I got a good brown on one side of the turkey before I added the spices. That was good enough for me.

[@Largentina.]

​@@ethanpaffYou're not understanding what the OP is telling you. LOL you do you though.

[@jared2246]

Don’t do this, horrible idea. Cooking the spices releases more color and flavor. Don’t listen to this comment.❤

[@TheBrownFaceBE]

I am trying this, this week! I’ve been adding cottage cheese to eggs for added protein but it has amped up the flavor and richness. Never thought about adding it to meat!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@8889]

love this content! you are entertaining af and very charismatic. Keep up the good work! Love the choice of turkey for this recipe btw.

[@Broodjemetbeleg]

18 eggs??! Damn you rich 😂

[@gavinchetwynd3274]

I made them today and they are delicious ❤️❤️

[@ethanpaff]

🤙🤙❤️

[@TheDarkWallChris]

Primary take away here is the cottage cheese use. You can easily get it sub 400 calories and close to 60g of protein with a healthier wrap and some fat free cheddar, which are my personal reccomendations. That being said this is a great foundational recipe / idea.

[@CharityDiary]

I think you're misunderstanding the phrase "takeaway". Cottage cheese is not a concept.

[@TheDarkWallChris]

@@CharityDiary I don't think I am. I say the use of the cottage cheese. As in, within the context of the recipe to make a sauce for it. Which granted isn't unheard of in healthy recipes but I'd not seen it in this context. So yes, as I stated originally, the primary take away I see here is the cottage cheese use. Apologies if you misunderstood that.

[@CharityDiary]

@@TheDarkWallChris Ah okay, now I get it. I'm sorry you made me misunderstand.

[@TheDarkWallChris]

@@CharityDiary It's ok, but I don't forgive you for your mistake.

[@Leadbraw]

Made these for the first time today. Comes out to like $2.85 per burrito all said and done, pretty good. The cottage cheese was a real 'trust the process' moment lol

[@duquette1792]

So happy this video randomly popped in my recommended again. 1 year ago I made these and they were SO GAWD DAYUM GOOD. 100% making these a usual part of my diet

[@ms.minimalistisch8421]

1:26 well i guess this is seasoned :D

[@izzyxblades]

For real

[@Snatch_184]

Your mom is right. I love your recipes, but i always add a bunch of vegetables to it to increase the nutrient content :D

[@ethanpaff]

Sounds like I need to put out more veggie-heavy recipes

[@sleepyhead7391]

Definitely true! What I find most healthy cooking channels forget in their recipes are things like fiber and saturated fat

[@Artemis19811]

veges arent inherently healthier... especially kale with its high oxalates. Veges like kale tend to do damage to your gut lining and overlaod your body with "anti-nutrients". Just eat simply and ditch the hippy veges!

[@frankp3075]

​@@ethanpaff Try adding cauliflower rice to the recipe. I'm going to the store to get everything and try it out.

[@seethrough_treeshrew]

That's an ungodly amount of spices, especially salt

[@n1c0z12]

I‘ve read the comment before I started watching and was like „‚nahh, im crazy with spices, it cant be that bad“ when he added them i was just like damn wtf lmao

[@eddiehitler6985]

I winced when he said "just over a teaspoon of salt". That was way over a Tablespoon of salt!

[@sleepycharlie673]

Yeah wtf!

[@davecastro1340]

He adds all that chili powder for the video because he knows that with the measurements he gave, this would end up as grey slop. All that spice is for color. Which is ridiculous.

[@Sh4rK280]

1.5 tsp of salt is a lot to you? You must be low in sodium.

[@Boba-Zach]

These are amazing. Thank you for including the recipie in the description and making it so easy to find. THANK YOU!!!!!

[@dawsonhyde]

Tried making this and my whole family loves it, thanks bro

[@lurklingX]

3:19 holy hell, that SALT. u ok, man? (that's a killer amount of sodium! especially considering how much went into the turkey.)

[@ethanpaff]

😂

[@alexanderquilty5705]

Bro said a tsp! 😭 I'm watching him put the spices in and then reading the quantities and something is not adding up lol.

[@Ribcut]

1:14 I can't tell if this is satire

[@Moshugaani]

Uh, I feel like your given spice measurements don't have anything to do with what amounts you put in it in the video. xD

[@myworldautistic6839]

🤣🤣🤣🤣 I think you're right about that!!

[@setsega7841]

Super concise and useful video, coming back for more!

[@eriksomnas]

Great recipe, editing, humour and pace! Only thing I didn't catch the first time was how you wrapped them, but when you made another it was clear as day. Subscribed 👍🏻
