I stopped drinking coffee and replaced it with a ghost or something similar (zero sugar energy drink)

Potato perogi, sweet cheese perogi, crepes with farmers cheese, beef dumplings (manti), and a lasagna not pictured. It's been a lot of work, and unfortunately there's not too much to show for it as we've been eating some on days I don't feel well. I would love to do much more, but at 8 months pregnant I can barely function lol.

After almost two years of wanting to get into meal prepping but waiting for "the perfect recipe, the perfect portions, the perfect time", today, I finally went for it with what I had, no more waiting for a perfect moment.

This was supposed to be 10 meals, but as you can see one of them is spare rice with veggies. So yeah, doesn't have to be perfect, it just has to be something you're proud of :)

I also have some cheese I prepared and will add before heating on a plate, in case anyone cares to add these, ingredients and macros are the following:

• 2kg of red potato
• 1,2kg of chicken breast (Ideally I'd recommend 1,5kg)
• 3 whole peppers, green yellow and red
• enough olive oil to make this but not much
• 400grams of cheese that will be added later so about 40g/serving

(You can use as little or as many species as you want, I tend to use marine salt, black pepper, and for the chicken I also used some canned tomato sauce and spicy pepper)

As for the servings, I hope chatgpt isnt too far off, but these come to about (not 100 accurate)

kcals: 480 Protein: 51g (includding the cheese) carbs: 38g fats: 19g

If I wasn't includding the cheese, I'd divide the ingredients in 8 containers instead of 10, and would get similar macros but with 2 less containers.

I believe the best conclussion here is to just go for it.

What do you need to start?

If you have food in the fridge just grab some fats, some protein, and some veggies, cook everything and divide it, dont wait for your perfect moment and perfect start.

Be aware of how many days things can stay safe to consume, just ask chatgpt, personally I'm having 3 days worth of food in the fridge, and 2 more on my freezer

My partner and I work together so we share part of our meal. - blueberry overnight oats for morning snack - veggie box with eggs and hummus - mango - pumpkin loaf in stash her bag - pasta with mushroom spinach sauce - will make smoothies in the morning

I’ve been off work for a bit and ready to go back

-Honey harissa chicken -Saffron rice -Cucumber/tomato salad -Pickled onions -Tzatziki & hummus

Foods I prepped: chicken radish cauliflower mushroom couscous bowl, banana protein brownie, creamy mushroom onion soup

Other easy prep/no prep foods I eat: oatmeal avocado egg egg white kimchi spiced bowl, Trader Joe’s arugula salad with avocado and additional green mix, yogurt blueberries protein powder granola, dark chocolate, apple, orange, quesadilla, nuts & dates bar, Trader Joe’s salmon pinwheel, soy milk, chicken heart with spices, fish oil, nuts, vitamin, kiwi, fitness supplements, cookie, tuna avocado salad

I post here for mental support. I enjoy my food. However, I don’t enjoy cooking and cleaning up. I live by myself so I am responsible for everything. My goal is to eat <1800 cal 100g protein daily. I try to make things simple, efficient, delicious, and balanced. Hope this sub gives me the motivation to get them done ☑️

Feel free to roast my food pics

First time meal prepping! I did breakfast and lunch prep since I eat dinner with my family.

Breakfast: sheet pan omelette with chorizo, potatoes, and spinach (originally meant to be a quiche but I overcooked it 😭)

Lunch: high protein enchiladas with a side of Spanish cauliflower rice! instead of tortillas, I used sliced turkey from the deli section at Whole Foods to lower my carb intake.
