You just can't beat jasmine rice, broccoli, ground beef, and black beans

meals need to have a couple basic components.

Protein

Carbs

Veggies

I usually make three meals wirth at a time.

Good example is I almost always have some rice cooked. Rice cooker is less than $20 and is the easiest tool you can get, one button.

Veggies are simple as they can be either fresh or just frozen. Fresh is more work so if you dont want to do that, just microwave the frozens.

now just add a cooked meat. Chicken drumsticks in the air fryer and cheap and tasty,. make a three meal supply at a time.

Ground beef and chicken breasts are also very affordable and versatile. I use then where one breast should make three meals at least.

Just look up simple recipes for those and you are set.

I've made a number of threads about my protein baking adventures. If the search function works, you could look there. Basically baking things like cheesecakes, donuts, and muffins using healthy alternative ingredients including whey protein, nut/seed butters, ripe fruits, cottage cheese, greek yogurt, etc. You can get incredibly creative with it.

Orange chicken & Jasmine rice with broccoli on the side. The crispy bits of garlic and ginger mixed with the orange sauce is good.

That looks good. It looks more like a primary meal, though.

When I cut, I make a large batch of chilli every 4 days and spread it into 4 fast breaking meals. Possibly the GOAT bodybuilding meal. It's great not having to wonder what I'm making for my first meal, it's set already. That way, I have that, something small in the PM, and a larger, creative dinner that checks off all remaining macros. That's the best nutritional system I've been able to develop for myself in the past 15 years.

Hmmm....This seems like a great idea. The chicken breasts I'd probably cut into small strips. I'd probably do sweet potatoes on the side or maybe green beans or something.

I do a lot of crockpot cooking so I have meals for the week. Lately I've been making a weekly crockpot taco chili. It's delicious and so easy to make.







recipe for anyone who want to try.

Yeah I do an avocado on the side. Or you can microwave a potato.

I usually hate leftovers, but CHILI is 10/10 when reheated. highly recommend.

Speaking of avocado, have you tried grill avocado? It's like crack.

onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, lime juice, salt, pepper. Grill on both sides till slight char, maybe 4 minutes?
