On my website there are hundreds of meal prep, snack, and macro friendly dessert recipes that I have developed over the years. There are no targeted ads, no pointless life stories and endless scrolling to get to the ingredient list, just the recipes. I have a subscription based model where Gold Members have access to every recipe on the site, which is under $5/month with annual memberships. If that's not your thing, there is also a Silver level membership that is free for life, still ad free, and you get access to more than 40% of the recipes. Registering to become a member, whether that is a Gold or Silver (free) member, is the best way you can help support what I do. I appreciate all of you more than you know 😎

I have ARFID and traditional meal prep has never worked for me. My air fryer is my go-to for cooking most of the time, and I spend more than I’d like to on premade snacks that are my safe foods. Other creators spend too much time chatting about their life stories or pushing whatever products. You have such an easy to follow channel, and all your recipes are super simple to modify to accommodate for different dietary needs and still be healthy. Thank you so much, excited to find your videos right after grocery shopping and being stuck on what to make.

Highly recommend making pastabakes for later cooking as well. Can add whatever type of protein/vegetables you want in the bake and freeze (just dont add cheese on top before freezing, add fresh cheese when cooking it). Beef/chicken stroganoff freezes really well too and all you gotta do it heat it and boil some rice.

Great video, but you said flash freezing over & over while misusing the term. This is just freezing things somewhat separately, before combining into final packaging. Flash freezing is not possible with the average home freezer, as it is extremely rapidly freezing to minimize ice crystal formation. Alton Brown did a really nice episode of Good Eats on the topic, where he shows how to flash freeze by using a cooler & dry ice that gets cold enough to freeze rapidly.
