    As a single man that doesn’t know how to cook and lives alone this helps a ton I’m sure it’s like a 25 to 30 dollar purchase but it beats the hell out of 15 dollar meals when you go and eat outside each time 🙏 thanks !
  • @magnuskh9650
    This channel is a gem for people like me trying to bulk. The majority of high-calorie mealprep recipes on youtube are fitness-people with no clue how to cook, doing rice-steamed veg-seared meat-store bought condiments on rice. Thanks a lot. Great inspiration.
  • @codyboykin4504
    I wanted to take time to thank you. My wife is on a fitness journey after having our son and she refuses to eat anything but this meal! Begging her to try others. By taking the time and adding the macros along with phenomenal tasting recipes, you easily earned a lifelong follower and recipe thief. Can’t thank you enough! Btw, she is 30 pounds down! Keep doing what you are doing. It isn’t just cooking food Jack, you are impacting lives. Thought you may need to hear that.
  • @jamie-ch6yo
    I have been eating this recipe for lunch everyday for past 2 months, just can’t seem to get bored of it. Thank you so much!
  • Your content, the quality, the consideration to different ingredients people might use and the consideration to offer conversions, your explanations. Everything is so excellent. In my opinion, you’re the best to watch and learn from.
  • I really like when you describe what each ingredient adds to the dish when introduce it into the mix. You are the ONLY one that i've seen do this in their videos.
  • @TheBurtle005
    I made this for my wife and I tonight. It’s absolutely amazing! If anyone is reading this and you haven’t cooked this dish……do it!
  • @yaseengaffoor
    Mine looks nothing like this!!! Hahaha oh well it’s my first day learning to cook! 😊
  • insanely refreshing to see someone cooking meal preps at home with proper knife skills and an understanding of what something good tastes like
  • @ketovore133
    Thank you so much. You have no idea how much you are helping my husband and I with meal prepping. Simple and straight to the point. Love how you include macros, measurements and serving sizes! You deserve so many more subscribers ❤❤
  • @masterpaine4395
    my problem is. i make prep meals but i eat them all in one day !
  • @kainschild
    I love these meal prep idea series. I keep watching them and then changing the recipies to make some very quick and easy meals for my family on weekdays. I do tend to add more carrots, spinach, broccoli, corn and potatoes to the dish. But I did want to say thank you for making these and continuing to post them.
  • This is one of the best homemade meals I have done. Was a success with all of us. Thank you so much for giving us inspiration, can’t wait to try and make some others next week.
  • @lisahutchens8062
    The meal prep series rocks. I'm a very busy registered nurse and the last thing I want to do when I get home every evening is cook. A couple of hours grocery shopping and meal prepping on the weekend and voila, I've got delicious meals waiting for me when I get home. The sweet and sour chicken is beyond delicious. Thank you Chef. You are truly the food whisperer.
  • @jemezzzzz
    I just made this and it came out fantastic!!! Thank you Jack! All your recipes have came out great and have NEVER left me disappointed. Keep up the good work brother!!
  • Just by looking at it you know this is hella tasty. I just love delicious and savory meal prep that show us that meal prep doesn't have to taste bland and boring. This recipe is quite simple and yet full of flavors. Thank you man!
  • @wickywills
    Literally just finished making the chickpea curry meal prep and wanted ideas for next week. This looks perfect. I like that your preps don't just have like 200-300 calories, since I need a lot more, and this one fits the bill.
  • @ynotcheung
    Hey Jack! Just stumbled upon your channel and made this as my very first meal prep for the week. Used chicken thighs instead of breast and followed your step by step instructions - very clear and straight to the point! big big thank you! The dish came out great and my family even enjoyed it. Will be meal prepping with your other recipes as well.
  • @lacheela8406
    I cooked this meal this weekend and love it. Very tasty and easy to follow. This is a very thought out series that i am really enjoying where the focus is on teaching rather than showing off. Loved your channel for a long time but this meal prep series is just superb!!
