    I would love to see a slow cooker series. Or a multi cooker series. Or even a one sheet pan series. One pot series. I think you get the theme…easy, throw together but healthy, full of flavour and filling.

    Tip for hummus from a damascene, add fat! traditionally it's topped off with a spoon of ghee (heavy but mindblowing), but most locals just go with olive oil now. By the way, the reason the chickpeas are soaked is to avoid bloating, so you might not want to skip that if you are eating it too often! And Usually, we add quite a bit of cumin as it packs on flavor and is also great for the bloating... when we go all out on chickpeas we usually drink boiled cumin with a bit of lemon and salt instead of tea to calm things down... try it out!

    Love your recipes! For the Hummus, I recommend you don't add the garlic, lemon and tahini to the whole batch. The way we did it back home was adding it to the portion we're about to eat. It lets the hummus last longer in the fridge, and will have a much fresher taste with the garlic and lemon if you add them right before eating.
  • Korean, to me is the ultimate meal prepping cuisine because of the Banchan. Would love to see you take a crack at it.
  • I think if he can put together a meal plan for the week without a kitchen, then my excuses are quickly dwindling...
  • @DR-it9fm
    Dude, everything about this meal prep was absolutely beautiful and looks incredibly delicious. 😋
  • @MegaGunnar10
    Literally one of the most versatile food videos I have ever seen. So much tasty food packed into one single video. Really like how you use the leftovers of the same food again in another dish. Thank you so much for this video! Absolutely thrilled to try these out!
  • @Div1neLegacY

    I've had the pickled turnips and beets first at a great Shawarma place and liked them so much, I searched what they were online and made them again at home. Highly recommended.
  • @yasmin-e
    What I really like about these meal prep videos is that each time the suggestions almost perfectly fit the ingredients I have at home. Thanks a lot.
  • @terry5749
    Update: the tzatziki, the hummus, and the pickles amazing! The beet purée was subtle, sort of sweet. Served with warm pita and chicken…excellent. The prep was easy (the beet purée was the hardest) and I have all sorts of tasty for the week! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
  • EVERYTHING looked so delicious! You always make meal prep look like anyone can accomplish it. The beet dip and tzatziki looked so fresh and tasty. Thanks so much!
  • @Tacospaceman
    It’s amazing how far you can stretch just a few ingredients, you’re creativity as a chef is shining so brightly in this video. Keep it up! Tell your bro we said hi lol
  • @abulferr
    Hummus, Fool (which is cooked fava beans) and Falafel is a complete meal here in Jordan (and many Arab countries)… with some fresh pita and a glass of black tea (maybe with mint), that’s a full coarse meal for many people!!! Great video and the lentil bowl is something I will try this weekend for sure!!! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
  • You have to be one of the most down to earth pleasant chefs I've ever watched. I am getting new ideas for prepping and recipes for the summer!
  • @jillcnc
    YES YES YES to EVERYTHING here. OMG I am overwhelmed with wanting to make everything on this list. Now I'm going to be sure to get it all when I go to the farm stand later today.
  • @rachelz7418
    Would love more series like this!!! And a playlist to go with it to make them easy to find — love taking the guess work out of tasty meals throughout the week that all build on each other!!!!
  • @pfh777
    I really appreciate the thought and recipes you’ve put into this … and the delicious food. Really tremendous. Thank you.
