Any Other Single People Here? Any Meal Planning Tips?

Quest Keto has a frozen meal delivery service. Not sure about ingredient quality or cost these days… The shipping cost used to be prohibitive.

I make batches of food and freeze it in individual portions. So I make a batch of chilli, lasagna, bolognaise, curry, keto cottage pie etc and freeze in individual portions. Home made ready meals 🙂

How hard is it to take a recipe made for four and divide the ingredients in four?  Also, why do you need a recipe to make a steak and a salad?  Have some fun with the ingredients, toss stuff in together and see what happens.  Cooking is more of an art than a science IMO.

When I’m looking for a quick, simple meal, I put some meat in the bottom of an oven-proof bowl, like leftover chicken, canned or frozen fish, or a couple eggs. (You might prefer to use a microwave.) I fill the bowl with vegetables (fresh or frozen, especially green leaves) and dried herbs. I sprinkle salt on. I add fat, like butter, cream cheese and cream.  I put the lid on, or cover it with foil, and place it in my little counter-top oven, and cook it until the meat is done.

My other favorite quick, simple keto meal is a heaping large salad bowl full of lettuces, topped with finely chopped celery, sliced cucumber, avocado, and canned fish or “boiled” eggs. Then I sprinkle it with salt, and pour lots of good olive oil on.

I hope that these ideas get you started with some ideas that you come back to share.

If a recipe is for 4 I will divide it in half, make 2 portions, eat one for dinner and have the second portion for lunch the following day. Works a treat!

I make big portions of meals and separate them.  I use a vacuum sealer to create individual meals that I can just grab from the freezer when I head to work.  Other than that, I just grab a different meat, depending on what is on sale and just eat that all week.  I use a George Forman grill at work to cook the meat.
