Quinoa, garbanzo, broccoli, radish, Pesto, and lemon wedge. Like, gag me with a spoon, man. Gross. If you're gonna prep at least make something edible

>>12732751
if you DO meal prep you're probably a corporate puppet who's given the precious moments of their life to the tendrils and suction of an abyssal existence from which no joy can be forged.

>it's sunday
OH NO NO NO NO PREPFAGS ON SUICIDE WATCH

how do you even reheat this, are meal preppers all microwave scum?

>>12732751
>precooking your meals 4+ days ahead so you can autopilot meals expending mental energy
now THAT sounds like a drone

>>12732764
Not every meal has to be chicken tendies and chocolate milk

Where is the beef?

>>12732879
I agree with that but you need some grilled meat or something in there with some protein.

>>12732925
This is a vegan board.

>i eat leftovers for a week straight
sub-human

>>12732932
In your head, maybe.

>>12732751
I don't meal prep, but breakfast and lunch are the same on workdays (oatmeal for breakfast, salad with a pita for lunch). I make 3 meals per night.

>preparing food
>"leftovers"

You just blew through from stupid town?

>>12732751
>quinoa and radish
>broccoli and mint
>chick peas scattered throughout
this shitty slop is all over the place and fucking disgusting. if you aren't cooking with ingredients that are naturally found in the same region, you're a fucking retard.
>>12732873
based. way to float through life with as minimal effort into meals as possible OP

>>12732947
>fully cooked and prepared meals put in tupperware and stored in the fridge for later consumption
leftovers

>>12732947
You're eating food that you cooked 6 days ago. That's leftovers.

>>12732960
This. Also freshly cooked food always tastes better. Mealprep is for autists and boring people

>>12732751
>Meal prepping.
>Meals for several days a week.

Sounds like someone isn't fasting. Never gonna make it.

>>12732949
>modern advancements have allowed us to have any food from any region at any time
>you must use only food from same region
fucking retard

>>12732751
>all the fat fucks ITT triggered over their own lack of control and proper meal planning
sad.

>>12732960
No, leftovers are - attention - LEFT OVER from a previously prepared meal. Since the PREVIOUSLY PREPARED MEAL has been divided into 5-7 servings, there ARE NO LEFT OVERS.

>>12733021
lmao so you don't even eat any of it when it's hot? That's just extra sad. Imagine spending hours making a massive meal just to put it in the fridge so you can eat the same reheated slop all week and not even get to enjoy it once while it's fresh. A meal who's entire purpose is to become leftovers. Disgusting.

>>12732861
answer this

>>12733058
Extremely sad. Like cooking for someone else, but worse because they will never enjoy the meal freshly cooked.

>>12732751
I think to mealprep sometimes, and am often bored in my kitchen looking for something to do with my hands. but other than that, just never-cooking-for-one. Always cooking banking on at least one full-course meal for leftovers or more. Better to have homecooked food for work-lunches than Burger King or whatever. Knowing I don't have to pick up an either-expensive-or-shitty lunch at work tomorrow calms an anxiety. Coming home and knowing I can just eat dinner without doing a bunch of work, that calms an anxiety.

I need to cut down on snacking. But I don't snack on prepped-meals!

Meal prep is dumb. Loss of freshness kills the taste.

Just take leftovers from the night's prior dinner and reheat them for lunch the next day.

>>12732751
Ah yes. Food is only the means to help you work.
You live to work, can't waste all that time making food because you got to get up early and do it again tomorrow. Truly the American work slave.

>>12732751
>preparing 5 boxes of same meal that will serve as disgusting fuel to keep him going in his shitty job
>not a drone

Meal Preplets absolutely BTFO

>>12732751
I made a giant batch of egg salad which I've been working on for a week. Does this count?
