You have outdone yourself. Already made 1 of the recipes from early on in this series and it was awesome!

[@zzzing23]

Thank you so much for these amazing meal prep recipes. I love all of them you’ve made so far. You keep on doing you! Much love!!

[@Grooovie725]

You know I have been a fan for a very long time and I'm always super excited when I get my alert that there is a new video that's been posted. This one I am extra excited to try all of the recipes! Thank you so much for doing what you do. You're going to make such a wonderful mommy! Big hugs! ❤️

[@mushpouch]

if u don't have kimchi, you can make simple version of it. 1. Chop chinese cabbage. (sliced cucumber is good too.) 2. Combime sugar (or corn syrup), fish sauce (or soy sauce), minced garlic, chili powder. 3. Mix all of them and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Do it just before you eat, cuz this one is closer to salad. (if needed, salt cabbage for 15 minutes and rinse that before the recipe. The less water is the better.) Adding some vinegar, chopped onion (or chive) is good refreshing.

[@melissaf1834]

Keep the Meal Prep Boxes coming please! Thank you!! 😋🤗

[@AndYouWillBeWithMe]

This is my favorite series of yours by a long shot!

[@FPWER]

Maybe a weird question: what do you do with the food afterwards ? Each member of the team take some home? Eat it together? Give it away? Other? Always wondered while watching food yt channel...

[@garlicgirl3149]

I know I would ask to take some home! ;D

[@FPWER]

John Ryan there is no such thing as a dumb question, there is only dumb answers.

[@babybookworm003]

I think the crew eats it there as she has mentioned before how fast certain dishes get eaten up

[@evghenianicolaou5327]

I always enjoy watching these meal prep videos. They provide a ton of ideas. Thank you.

[@jodiandrews6807]

This is the best week yet! I will definitely make these recipes!

[@MaverickBaking]

Loving this series, I love how much attention you pay to flavour rather than just focussing entirely on being super healthy!

[@garlicgirl3149]

I love your puns! LOL! I will try the maple dijon one. No you have not let me down. Your zeal is appreciated.

[@truly4927]

I tried the maple-Dijon chicken and it was really yummy. I had to use honey because I was out of maple syrup. Thanks!

[@chewchew4270]

Thank you so much for this series! Please keep them coming 😀😀😀

[@jeffward1106]

I've a confession. I've been making these for 4/5 yrs ( my sub ) and I have no kids & not in school. Vandy was done in the '90s. Kids don't understand your great rescipes anyhoo. ☺️

[@terryanderson5789]

Made the Korean Inspired Beef for dinner last night! It was delicious, had to improvise with frozen spinach! Today thought well let's try taco chips browned in the oven throw the meat on top with cheddar cheese. Didn't have tomatoes, so mixed salsa and ranch dressing! I think once I have everything fresh to throw on top might be the best idea for Nachos! During this Covid 19, just saying! Stay well everybody

[@henrymichal8522]

you are awesome. Thank you again for sharing the love.

[@AndreaHee]

I will be the envy of the whole office :) I love that all your ideas are so fuss-free but flavourfull, you motivate me to cook even when I'm super tired and would otherwise just live on toast and hard-boiled eggs ;)

[@leeleelovesyou345]

Hey! I was wondering if you would do a lunch series for picky eaters! Simple stuff that kids (or myself lol) would like... but a little jazzed up! I would love that

[@allisonfoulon7858]

I love all your meal prep video ! Thanks for all these ideas ! :D

[@sapphire2kyle]

I just love your puns and your recipes of course :D

[@SandraFrancisca]

Can you tell us the Celsius temperature with the dishes ?

[@chattiali142]

HAPPY Birthday

[@anonymouspakistani8544]

yummy ........😄😄

[@mariahosborn1786]

For the first bowl, what is the best way to reheat that meal with the soft boiled egg???

[@1024specialkay]

that curry chickpea salad omgg

[@ssd1453]

Do you heat up the picked veggies that are in the same container as the tofu and rice?

[@mcar4able]

You just might convert me to a dijon mustard fan, something I never thought would happen

[@skc1636]

emm...... Look yummy 😋 😋 👍

[@SpaceViking2000]

Where do you get your lunch containers?

[@gooner1756]

Awsome

[@chiaracarissimi6950]

"to make sure you are lunching in style" sweetie omg

[@sbtesta]

What Tupperware do you use?!?!

[@onelove5572]

FYI... the 30 day download don’t load up... unable to download

[@user-np3uy5kg3g]

How many servings does each recipe contain?

[@Justmesag53]

I would like to know where you buy your dishes for your meal/lunch box meals?.

[@TeylaDex]

I have nearly the same from ikea

[@RED-light_]

The samosa part got me going crazy😭😭😭😭😭

[@Bruno-jj3vt]

Where did you buy your kimchi?

[@kucibaba]

What may be wrong? I wanted to download all those back to schools menu ideas but nothing came to my email box, i even checked the spam and found nothing. Tried several times.

[@nevaehamarie8494]

What camera do you use?

[@krystalc6115]

Silly question buuuut when re-heating, how can I keep the egg soft 😁

[@09echols]

Krystal C sit the egg in a cup of warm water

[@1weso]

You can first take the egg out, reheat the box and then put the egg back in and let it set for a minute or 2 ;) this should warm it up without cooking it

[@krystalc6115]

Thanks!!

[@emgi10]

is the korean inspired bowl good for 1 serving? tried to look for recipe on ur healthy meal plan site but ca not find it what wud be the ingredients if i cook it for 2 or 4?

[@thedomesticgeek1]

Hi There! The full recipes for this video are actually in the description! You can click the show more button below the video to reveal everything. Each recipe is for one serving!

[@nataliapayne2014]

I see that you always use fresh chicken, but how would you marinade with frozen? Thaw first and then marinade the next day?

[@vickigsolomon1241]

I add the marinade to the frozen chicken. It marinades while thawing. Sweet peas and Saffron has a good article. sweetpeasandsaffron.com/freezer-friendly-chicken-breast-marinade/

[@nataliapayne2014]

Thanks! I’ll try that ♥️

[@kewlbns69]

wutz "RTM"?

[@alexiatrevino7284]

You remind me so much of Kara from Detroit: Become Human

[@luvmybloodydee]

Please make vegan version 💝🖤

[@Nicole-mz6hs]

Can you please do more vegetarian options🙏there were none in this video💕

[@lottibinns]

BubblesXOXO there was a tofu dish.

[@extremelyblessed4860]

How can I substitute the soy sauce in your first dish?

[@ohleander02]

Coconut aminos.

[@a697ag]

Braggs aminos taste just like soy sauce and is super healthy

[@hamzanaser73]

Hello how r u dear.iwant to see ur newborn baby

[@chattiali142]

,Love you ma belle

[@chattiali142]

Bjr ma jolie

[@chattiali142]

,je t'aime beaucoup ma jolie

[@zaynkataw83]

well my school doesn't have a microwave

[@TeylaDex]

Then do like 99% of working adults and eat it cold. It's not like it's raw.

[@zaynkataw83]

@@TeylaDex dude that was so harsh hahah

[@NikkieAnOrdinaryGirl]

I wish I wasn't so picky...everything looks good but I never end up liking most ingredients...

[@vandanashah4016]

I am vegetarian pls can you give some vegetarian options

[@RetroChani]

Vandana Shah there is a veggie option in this and every other meal prep box she has done in this series.

[@TeylaDex]

Stop whining. If you can't use the vegetarian option she has given in every video, just leave the meat out if the others. Or go to veggie channels.

[@beezybis]

I'm sorry but that's not bulgogi at all 🙄 how annoying

[@fritz.]

"Healthy" but using tons of oil to cook meat, which is of course super healthy as well! *Triggered meat eaters attacking in 3..2..1..*

[@chattiali142]
