Weekly Meal Prep for Healthy Eating

[@teresiaarave]

you know what I really appreciate? That you give wonderfully useful information without wasting my time...I can't tell you how many utube videos I have turned off half way through because I just couldn't stand meaningless chatter. Thank you so much for your direct approach. I found you really interesting and fun to watch and learn from. I know you already have a mom, but I see you as kind of a daughter (I have 5)and am turning them on to your channel... so delightful. Thanks again and please keep going! yes...high 5

[@weelicious]

Meal prep saves me every week! I love your ideas. We make a chicken in the crock pot, roast veggies, quinoa or rice and a bunch of raw veggies!

[@thedomesticgeek1]

Weelicious It's such a life saver...especially on those weeknights when you can't bare to cook! :D

[@vanesaposrana2271]

I wach your videos

[@mnguyen427]

Thank you so much for posting this video! You have opened my eyes to a whole new world. I was starting to get overwhelmed with school and work. I tried meal prepping for the first time and this week was amazing. I was able to eat healthy and save a lot of time. Please continue to give us meal prep ideas from time to time, I would love to continue learning from you.

[@fezanhameed5984]

please make a video on how to keep your food fresh all week long

[@emisontheceiling953]

This video is absolutely genius!! I know it's a lot of work, but would you consider making this into a little series and showing different foods for different weeks and how you prep them on Sunday night? This is seriously such a helpful video in itself, so thank you so much!

[@thedomesticgeek1]

em isontheceiling You're very welcome! I'm hoping to launch a new meal prep series in January. Fingers crossed :)

[@simplyshama]

Things like this are so helpful. I started university this week and I either don't eat, eat the same thing (pasta and veggies) or eat sweet food. Do you think you could do a video on kitchen food essentials?

[@thedomesticgeek1]

simplyshama Yes, for sure. That's a great idea! You mean like pantry essentials? And that sort of thing?

[@maitheasian05]

Meal prep on Sundays is so important! This semester has been treating me so tough. I usually just make few meals and freeze them weekly. This week, I have some mac n cheese, lemon herb chicken, steamed broccoli, curry, and burger meat prepped:) I'd love to see some meals made out of these ingredients you prepped in this video!

[@thedomesticgeek1]

Christine Yamane Hi Christine! That sounds fantastic. It's always so great to have dishes prepped so you can eat well...even when you're feeling too tired to cook. Next time I'll try to include some recipes to make as well :)

[@literoylty]

❤️life saver ❤️❤️i have 3 kids activities and Busy work days! Because of You we now eat healtier and Even more fruit! ❤️love You

[@thedomesticgeek1]

literolty Amazing!! I'm so glad you found the video helpful :)

[@jessicasevilla2529]

This really is the type of video that hasnt ever been made on KZbin, but it is something that I've been trying to implement for a while now. Thank you for sharing your process. It was fun to watch! 😀

[@SunUp08]

Great, simple video with a powerful punch. I love eating this way but sometimes everything is just too overwhelming with a busy schedule but you just made it simple. Thanks!

[@aliciaa4568]

I love all your videos, but would so love a series of these meal prep type videos. Came in so handy! Thanks for all the work you put into your videos it shows!

[@thedomesticgeek1]

Alicia A Aw, thank you so much Alicia. That really means a lot to me :)

[@kristing5215]

I've been doing something similar to this for a while, and it works great. I also do frozen vegetables either baked or stir-fried. I also have spaghetti squash in my rotation. This time of year will also be good for butternut squash.

[@NanaPapa123]

You are brilliant! We eat healthfully but I tend to do things the hard way. Your suggestions will save me so much time. Thank you.

[@thedomesticgeek1]

Nana Papa You're so welcome :) I'm glad you enjoyed the video!

[@KrittiyaL0VE]

YES !!! I love tips on meal prep ! Can you do more videos like these ? … but maybe a week long recipes ? Or maybe, one day at a time ? (I mean something like, 1 videos a day for 7 days… with breakfast, lunch and dinner in a video… sorry if i ask too much) ! I send you lots of love from Geneva, Switzerland :)

[@thedomesticgeek1]

KrittiyaL0VE Hi! That's a great idea actually! Let me see if I can come up with a whole week meal plan. It will take me a few weeks but I'll see what I can do :D

[@doinaonofrei8105]

Great Video clip! Sorry for the intrusion, I would love your opinion. Have you heard the talk about - Dinanlinson Natural Beauty Approach (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now)? It is an awesome exclusive product for learning what to eat to look younger without the normal expense. Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my old buddy Taylor after a lifetime of fighting got amazing results with it.

[@racheloneill543]

interesting points ,if anyone else wants to learn about stay young naturally try Jadonite Food Beauty Buddy ( search on google ) ? Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my neighbor got great success with it.

[@gabrielacalizaya155]

Thank you so much for making this video! I'm a student and sometimes I don't have time to cook everyday, I don't like going out for lunch either because it's always fast food! Thank you for sharing this! You just saved my college life!

[@thedomesticgeek1]

Gabriela CalizayaC My pleasure Gabriela! I hope this helps :)

[@portigoza]

U are so amazing, these tips are so helpful especially when you're in grad school and tend to eat poorly! Thanks for the wisdom and I adore your videos, they are incredible helpful. Tip: I've done this last week, I cook some quinoa and I add lentils, extra protein for the week. I've been eating it all the time, yummy and healthy!

[@thedomesticgeek1]

Patricia Ortigoza Hi Patricia! I'm so so glad you're enjoying the channel :) I've never thought of adding lentils to my quinoa...That's a really great idea for adding more protein. Thanks!!

[@thenunujournals]

I sometimes cook penne pasta in advance and refrigerate for the next day's meal! Makes it so much easier the next day!

[@DaRickster]

Thank you!!I was coming home one day and didnt felt like cooking,but I remembered that I prepared a Meal prep waiting for me to eat!!Thanks this is a saver!!

[@thedomesticgeek1]

Rick2526 CMLG Awesome!! So glad it helped :)

[@exAngel91]

I have yet to actually try prepping meals - but I love that you do so much of your prep in one night for the entire week! That's something I hadn't really considered! Rather I'd been looking at meal planning.. which is still a step in the right direction, but you take it to another level! Love it :)

[@thedomesticgeek1]

exAngel91 Thank you! I hope you'll give it a try :)

[@ayngelina]

Really good tips to get organized for the week with The Domestic Geek

[@thedomesticgeek1]

Ayngelina Brogan I'm so glad you enjoyed them :D

[@SprinkleofSamantha]

Just found your videos I love your meal preps. Truly the best I've seen and an inspiration. I hope you continue them because they are very creative and helped me think of new plans!

[@Jennifr1966]

I love your idea about the white OR sweet potatoes. My husband hates sweet potatoes, my daughter and I love them! This way, I can prepare both and enjoy the meal. :)

[@Rotten.Apples]

I have been struggling to find ways to prep for my healthy weekly meals and your video is fantastic!!! Please make similar videos in the future. Thank You.

[@VelvetWhispurr]

Omg I was so excited to see this video go up:)! This is exactly what I needed, I'm currently going to school and I also work so I rarely have time to cook but you just made my life much easier:) can you please do more vids like this where you meal prep for the whole week? Love your videos keep them coming 😃

[@thedomesticgeek1]

Jaylee〈3 Yes, absolutely! I'm so glad to hear people are enjoying it. I'll try to share more meal prep ideas soon :D

[@linaceniccola]

these weekly preps are great for a university student, like myself!

[@Iheart2cook]

A cool tip, try using a drinking straw inserted down the middle of the strawberry to remove the hull instead of cutting the top off. You'll save a good portion of the berry rather than throw it away.

[@thedomesticgeek1]

Iheart2cook Thank you so much!! I'll give it a try :)

[@lafemmejoli1]

YAYAAAAA!!! I thought you went away, because I haven't seen any of your uploads on Coral lately. I love your videos and so happy I found you, again :)

[@thedomesticgeek1]

Rose61234 I find prepping fruits, veggies and protein ahead of time is always the BEST way to stay on track. So glad you enjoyed the video :)

[@41464]

This was the BEST! Thank you so much for sharing! You probably already have so many other great ideas to share with us all, but I'd GREATLY appreciate another video just like this one with other options. This video was fantastic, thanks again for sharing! ☆

[@thedomesticgeek1]

Crystal Cortez Hi Crystal. I'm so glad to hear you enjoyed it! I could definitely share more meal prep ideas in the next little while. Stay tuned!

[@thedomesticgeek1]

Sandy Bartlett You're so very welcome Sandy :) I'm so glad you're finding the videos inspiring!!

[@Dragonladyreef]

Would love to see what you keep stored in your fridge and pantry. What are you everyday staples?

[@thedomesticgeek1]

***** Hi Lindsey! I'll try to make a video on that soon :)

[@beemoki7919]

Thank you very much! I tried this the first time and it's such a blessing to see so much prepared food in the refrigerator. Awesome! I love your channel and watch every video. Greetings from Germany :)

[@mfernandez22]

Looks amazing! Would love it if you went through what an actual day of eating looked like with these ingredients

[@thedomesticgeek1]

Milagros Fernandez Hi! I'm going to try to do more meal prep videos in the New Year :D

[@roundabouting1]

The Domestic Geek I'm so glad you'll be making more of these! This has been my favourite meal prep video I've seen on youtube but I would love more ideas. A whole series would be great! -wink wink- I work six days a week at odd hours, so I'm always so exhausted and not in the mood to cook before or after work. Sunday is the perfect day for me to get things done! I made a couple roast chickens for us and rubbed them with coconut oil, paprika, garlic powder, cayenne, and some salt and pepper and it was awesome. And just having some pre-cooked veg and meat etc around makes it so much easier to just throw something quick together with next to no effort. Thanks so much for uploading!

[@keert88]

Could you do a video on how to store different types of food like chicken or vege or cooked food for the purpose of meal prepping

[@nirejohnson]

Another great video! I've been meaning to meal prep... Thank you for the visual. It really helps!!

[@KalypsoMielow]

Hi Domestic Geek! It's me from denmark again. Just wanted to tell you I have finally bought myself a blender and purchased all the ingredients for the 5 smoothies. (first smoothies video) It was a little pricey tough. Couldn't find any cherris so I bought plums for the thursday smoothie. I'm 18 and really want to eat healthy and since I moved in my own appartment I am in full control of what I eat. So I was wondering if you could make a video about young people and how to eat healthy. How to save money and food. Sorta video. Just want to tell that you are one of the most kind youtuber I have ever seen and keep op the good work. I will follow you :)

[@VTayTay1]

Where did you buy your cute little bowls with handles? And do they have bigger sizes?

[@KeturahsKastle]

Great video. I am going to attempt to try these healthy meal prep😊 ideas.

[@pallas6815]

These are great tips! Thanks a lot! I could definetly use more veggie snacks pre-cut up to ward off my occasional sweet tooth. ;) I find myself trying to have make-ahead meals that I can pop in the freezer & then, come the busy weeknight, just throw 'em in the oven. If you have any healthy/tasty freezer-friendly recipes I'd love to see them! =D

[@thedomesticgeek1]

Athena Sanders Hi Athena! I'll be putting together some great freezer ideas over the next few weeks so stay tuned :)

[@pallas6815]

Thanks! I look forward to them! =D

[@jojolacrosse]

These are great for a beginner! Could ou tell me what size mason jars you put the sliced raw veggies in?

[@jinkies2609]

I found a new homehack for you it is instead of cutting off so much strawberry use a straw to pop out the tops of the strawberries

[@jessicaharvey6227]

I absolutely love this, you make it so simple and easy :) subscriber for life :)

[@thedomesticgeek1]

Jessica harvey Thank you so much Jessica!!!

[@racheledwards2857]

Ohmygosh okay I found your channel last night and I've already watched most of your videos.. oops! You're just so good - you're flavour combinations are incredible. I can't wait to try out like every recipe :D I'd love to see some sort of pancake recipes if you could :) x

[@thedomesticgeek1]

Rachel Edwards Hi Rachel! You're in luck as I was just writing some new pancake recipes last night. Any flavour in particular? Or just a classic?

[@racheledwards2857]

The Domestic Geek Ooh I'd love maybe some different topping combinations? Like your take on berries and yoghurt or something chocolatey?? Or maybe some healthier versions? The possibilities are endless, haha! Thank you very much :)

[@xchrysantha]

Ohmygosh thank you so much for this video. This is REALLY gonna help me set myself up for healthy eating and not stressing about keeping up. Thank you thank you thank you!!!!!!!!!

[@garthfrehner4355]

How do you keep your veggies fresh in the fridge all week? Mine start becoming soft after a couple of days

[@d.r.q.2032]

These are some great ideas - thank you!

[@pinkie09999]

I'm so glad I found your channel :)

[@sheilariannon]

That all looks amazing! How many red peppers, stalks of celery, and cucumbers do you need to cut up to fill your mason jars?

[@thedomesticgeek1]

Sheila Kelly Hi! To fill the smaller mason jars, I believe I used 3 celery stalks, 1 red bell pepper and maybe half of the English cucumber. You could definitely do more and store them in zipper bags if you wanted :)
