All right, y'all. Welcome back to the Say Grace podcast. I'm so excited about this episode today.
0:47
It is fall, which we have just noticed a trend inside of our membership with our ladies.
0:54
Everybody is so busy.
0:57
We have a wide gamut of age ranges in our membership and across the board with
1:02
Perfect Fit, but we do have a lot of ladies who are just busy with their kids,
1:06
with activities on the go, non-stop.
1:08
And so I thought it'd be the perfect time to do this episode.
1:12
So I have got our PFN team here to share all of our favorite quick meals.
1:19
Say hello, Stacey. Say hello, Krista.
1:22
Hello. Hey, y'all.
1:25
Good to be back. Yes. So our girls are here. Stacey is our team dietitian and
1:31
Krista is our brand manager.
1:33
And I just thought it'd be fun for us to do kind of like a round robin and talk
1:38
about what our quick easy meals are for when we do have the crazy.
1:43
So Stacey has two older kids one that is in college and one that is and was she a junior?
1:51
Yeah she's a junior in high school. Okay and so they are pretty much at the
1:54
point where they can fend for themselves but Stacey we were talking about it
1:58
before we press play. And she's really good at meal prepping.
2:01
Like she's just always prepped and ready to go.
2:04
And then Krista on the flip side is not a newlywed.
2:09
I was getting ready to say a newlywed. You're so far from a newlywed now.
2:12
So she has a husband and a baby on the way, but her job schedule is kind of, kind of wonky.
2:19
So she works for us a few days, but most of the time she's in the salon, she does hair.
2:23
And so she works late. So Krista's main focus is to get dinner on the table
2:27
as fast as she can when she gets home.
2:29
And so sometimes that does consist of prepping.
2:33
And then other times it's just like, what can I do that's fast,
2:36
you know, when I walk through the door? Or what can I do that her husband can kind of help with?
2:40
And then for me, I have got the kids, the two girls, 10 and 5,
2:44
and we have activities more nights of the week than not.
2:47
A lot of them lasting until well into bedtime. And then Jess is also traveling
2:52
a lot during the week for work.
2:54
So our dinner can look kind of cuckoo crazy, especially here in the fall.
3:00
And so we're just all going to kind of toss out some of our things that have worked for us.
3:04
We're going to go two at a time. So we've all got quite a few,
3:07
which I think is going to make for a great episode.
3:09
We're going to go two at a time and just kind of talk through our top quick meals.
3:16
So any of y'all want to say Anything before we get going? Okay.
3:19
Y'all got to get up my mind.
3:21
Okay. All right. So I will go first with my first two. So one of my favorite things,
3:27
meals, I truly enjoy this meal too, is the just bare chicken nuggets or chicken tenders.
3:35
And then I will do it over a bed of lettuce with the Perfect Fit Nutrition Skinny Ranch.
3:41
And so of course I'll make a whole salad like cheese and tomatoes and black
3:46
olives and anything I feel like putting in there.
3:49
And so sometimes I even do this, like I'll make the whole bag of the chicken
3:52
tenders and like put them in the refrigerator and then reheat them throughout
3:57
the week for a salad for lunch.
3:59
But so I will do this for myself. And then oftentimes the girls will also have
4:03
them. Sarah Mason will eat a salad with me. Glory will not.
4:05
So I will either let her have french fries with it or just some chips and we pull out some fruit.
4:12
And like that's a really quick and easy dinner meal in general.
4:17
Another one that we do is we are on the go a lot, like I said.
4:20
And so at least one night a week if not two here lately
4:23
we are doing the drive-through just because of timing and especially
4:27
when Jess is out of town and so my go-to which
4:30
it is close to our house which is beneficial um is Huey Magoo's which is again
4:34
it's chicken and so I love their grilled chicken tenders and then I'm gonna
4:38
say if I okay I would love to know this by y'all from y'all okay if I go to
4:43
a chicken restaurant I am always always always gonna pick the grilled chicken
4:47
so that I can have the french fries.
4:49
Exactly. Okay. But not everybody's that way. Like some people would rather have
4:53
the fried chicken and get like at Chick-fil-A, some of our clients will get
4:56
the fried chicken and get the fruit cup or the kale salad thing or whatever. What do you, Stacey?
5:02
I'm a grilled chicken girl. Okay. So are you going to get the french fries though?
5:05
Or are you cool without the french fries? I'm fine without the french fries. I'll do fruit or a salad.
5:10
Not if I'm going through a fast food. I just I've got to have the french fries
5:14
with the grilled chicken.
5:15
So that's what I'll do at Huey Magoo's, either the French fries or they have
5:19
homemade chips there that I really like. So...
5:22
Those are my first two. Christy, you're up. I'm going to piggyback off of the bear chicken nuggets.
5:28
That's something that my husband can just like throw in our air fryer.
5:32
And I do the same thing as Constance. I just throw it over a bed of lettuce
5:35
and make a salad out of it.
5:38
But my husband, he is a huge sauce guy. So he'll make like make them kind of into chicken wings.
5:46
And so he'll shake up like put hot sauce or any type of teriyaki sauce.
5:50
Else he'll shake it up and then like dip it in ranch or
5:53
blue cheese or whatever so he does that and then i'll do
5:56
the salad is that what he did the other night when we were yeah
5:59
and then we're also just really
6:02
big i think i've said this before on a past podcast just
6:05
bowl people so i will normally like
6:08
prep some sort of meat and then we'll have like rice and a veggie
6:11
with it and lately we've been doing I've
6:15
got the sockeye salmon from Costco that
6:18
are frozen and so all you have to do is just
6:21
like take them out you know have them thawed out
6:24
and then it takes like 15 minutes in the oven and then we'll make the pirabita
6:28
veggies to go on the side and then we'll probably like top it with teriyaki
6:32
sauce or something and then we do chicken thighs a lot too and I'll try and
6:37
marinate it in a little bit of olive oil, lemon juice,
6:41
salt, pepper, maybe some like Italian seasoning.
6:44
And then I just cook them on top of the stovetop. And then that way we don't
6:49
really get leftovers with the salmon.
6:51
I don't like to do salmon leftover, but with the chicken thighs,
6:54
we are able to eat off of that for about two days.
6:57
And then, you know, if we don't have enough veggies or rice for the next,
7:02
because we normally do lately, since I've been pregnant, I've just
7:04
been really not inspired to cook we've been doing a lot of microwavable rice
7:10
and so everybody hear that like microwavable rice okay and too there's like
7:15
different flavors like cilantro and lime and then like there's just so many
7:19
even some of those different grain blends look yes like the quinoa and yeah so.
7:25
We'll do that, and if we don't have, like, leftover veggies and rice,
7:29
we'll just, like, make a quesadilla out of the leftover chicken or something like that.
7:32
With, like, an olé wrap? Mm-hmm. That's good. Yep. That's good.
7:35
So that's kind of, like, some of our go-to.
7:38
Another bowl that we do that you just made me think is, like, a fajita bowl.
7:43
So we'll just, like, slice bell peppers into slices, toss it in olive oil and
7:49
salt and pepper, like, roast them for a little while.
7:51
And then obviously whatever meat, like chicken or beef, and then put it over
7:56
rice with avocados, sauce, sour cream, just like something. Or sometimes we do it with shrimp.
8:03
And, I mean, Jess and I love that. The kids, you know, I don't know.
8:08
We really like burger bowls, too. Oh, yes. either
8:12
like doing a ground beef just having ground
8:15
beef and then like making it a burger
8:18
bowl with like avocado and like cut up sweet potatoes or
8:21
actually having like burger patties and cutting them up and
8:24
putting it in a bowl don't you feel like and stacy's gonna speak to this i know
8:28
because she's really like i said really good at the prep part but like don't
8:32
you feel like if you just have a meat yeah if you have the protein like it's
8:36
that that is half the game Like once you've got your meat in mind or your meat
8:39
thawed out, like when all else fails,
8:42
thaw out some chicken on a Monday because like you'll use it by Thursday if
8:45
you just halfway think about it, you know.
8:48
Okay, Stacey, you're up. So we are not chicken nugget people.
8:52
I think if I threw some chicken nuggets at my husband, he would be like.
8:57
Is this an appetizer? But we are in a totally different phase of life since Constance said.
9:03
I mean, my youngest is home, but she drives and she has things a couple nights a week.
9:08
And so she may drive through and pick something up. But my husband and I are
9:12
not big pick up and go out to eat things.
9:15
So I always, every week, have grilled chicken.
9:20
Sometimes I'll do just the breast and sometimes I'll do like a
9:23
mixture because he likes dark meat and then ground beef and I tend to either
9:27
do part of it like taco seasoned to make some kind of Mexican situation or an
9:34
Italian blend because I usually do two pounds of ground beef so that we can
9:38
do have multiple meals with it,
9:42
and then sometimes he will do hamburgers like
9:46
sliders on the Blackstone he do y'all
9:49
have a blackstone no oh my gosh he loves
9:52
that thing really yes great yes
9:55
great christmas gifts just just won like
9:58
a smoker or something from his work he did like there was
10:01
like some sales contest and he was one of the top and so
10:04
he got to choose between like a smoker and an ipad
10:07
and something else a traeger smoker so he
10:10
picked a smoker when y'all leave today walk out the garage you see the smoker
10:13
still out there in the box like we have not but i mean i'm like i know you wants
10:17
to open it like I'm really interested to see because he does get down with like
10:21
he loves our grill he loves to do stuff like that and that's just fun right
10:25
and so I will I'll move into my.
10:28
Talking on that topic for my next two but one thing that we've been doing and
10:32
if you are if you watch me on social I've been getting hello fresh lately and
10:36
so many of you guys have sent me other other meal subscriptions that I do want
10:41
to try one day but I am just still sold out for HelloFresh right now.
10:44
But that has been a real game changer for us simply because the weeks have been crazy, right?
10:51
And I haven't had to think about the meal prep as much because it's just sitting
10:57
in the refrigerator waiting on us once it arrives.
10:59
And so also the recipes are new to everyone. And I think I said this in my stories
11:04
one day a couple weeks ago, but like.
11:06
I've never cooked this recipe before either. And so for some reason,
11:11
I mean, Justin, I've been married 14 years and for 14 years I've been the cook.
11:14
And so for some reason, he feels more like he can take charge in the kitchen
11:19
because neither one of us know what's supposed to happen in this recipe.
11:22
And so that's been really nice during this season of kind of busy chaos,
11:26
especially when he's gone half the week, he'll come home and he'll kind of like
11:30
say, OK, I'm going to cook dinner tonight and just pull out that HelloFresh,
11:33
whatever we feel like happened.
11:35
And I feel like not only like could that help with like actually cooking it,
11:41
but like going to the grocery store and getting the ingredients.
11:44
Like, yeah, I'm sure you still go to the grocery store every week,
11:47
but it's like fruit. Right. Lettuce.
11:48
For sure. Like just easy things instead of like, OK, I have to go and get the
11:52
chicken and the sauce that goes with this and the seasoning that goes with that.
11:56
It's just like makes it so much easier. Well, and like cost wise, too.
12:00
So my HelloFresh has been like because we get it for three.
12:03
Three people for three meals and because glory doesn't count i mean she's not
12:08
going to eat you know me and glory be split in a meal pretty much and so because
12:12
she eats so little at dinner but,
12:13
so it's like 115 a week or something for that so when i've been going to the
12:18
grocery store during those weeks it is it's just to get lunchbox things it's
12:22
bread milk fruit and then whatever i'm eating for lunch and so because jess
12:27
will eat you know either leftover hello fresh for lunch or he just finds things, you know.
12:32
So like my grocery bill has been.
12:35
$60, $70. Well, so I paused my HelloFresh for this week because Jess is going
12:42
to be out of town and we're going to be eating out a good bit.
12:45
And so I went to the grocery store on Saturday. I spent $240,
12:49
you know, to prepare for the week.
12:50
And so it really is like cost effective if you allow it to be.
12:56
Because in two, the quality of the meal, I would never cook some of the stuff
13:00
that we were cooking on a random Wednesday night with these HelloFresh meals.
13:04
You know, like, everybody has been loving it, just having something different.
13:08
And even Sarah Mason gets involved. I mean, we've just really been loving it.
13:12
So I'm not going to say that that's quick.
13:14
I mean, there are, you can look up the time, like how it'll tell you how long it takes to cook them.
13:22
But I feel like it's saving you time on the front end of the thought of it. Oh my gosh, it is.
13:25
It is. And. Might not be, like, you still might have to cook it for 30 minutes or whatever,
13:30
but on the front end it's saving you time for sure and then
13:33
also like they will send you chicken already
13:36
cut up or you know like the vegetables
13:39
are just right there and ready like i don't know it's just every
13:42
the sour cream is in little individual packs like everything
13:45
is just ready all you do is dump and go whereas you know
13:49
over and over again walking to the fridge walking to
13:52
the oven walking to the pantry getting all the things out does take
13:55
time you know had they have y'all liked.
13:58
My stuff you've got almost every single one of them including the
14:01
week before last I forgot to place
14:04
I forgot to place my order in time like the
14:08
meals were coming but I forgot to choose what meals we were having so
14:11
they selected meals for us and we loved every single
14:14
meal probably better than this past week where we
14:17
chose the meals well that's an even more win right
14:20
I know I was like I was shocked by that one for sure
14:22
and so yeah I mean and two my kids Sarah
14:26
mason is just now coming out of being picky i mean
14:28
she still is picky but like she's just so i
14:31
don't know she's gotten so much more interested in trying things because
14:34
she's watching us like i
14:37
don't know what makes it different than me cooking dinner but she's
14:40
just watching us pull all this stuff out this bag and like
14:43
you know so she's involved you've also had them
14:45
out in the garden so she's seen that interest too
14:49
so right right yeah i mean she is she has actively been
14:52
coming out of being like she is trying more things
14:55
over the past several months for sure probably just
14:58
feels like more like an event for her it does you know
15:00
like you know it was since she did that cooking camp in
15:03
the summer she did a cooking camp and now she's like i know how to make sushi
15:07
i know how to you know okay girl come on in here and cut up this chicken then
15:11
i mean you know but glory even she was the one we were worried about because
15:15
she is so particular and she i don't know she has done well,
15:20
too. Like, it has been wild.
15:21
And so we will just keep on. Yeah.
15:25
Okay, so there's that one. There was HelloFresh. That was my next one. And then also nachos.
15:30
So this is one that we do a lot. It's really quick. We always keep tortilla
15:33
chips in the pantry at all times. It is just one of our things we always have.
15:38
And it is nothing for me to, especially at the end of the week,
15:43
like when y'all are talking about you prepare beef or you have some chicken
15:46
thighs left over or whatever, I will take whatever meat we've got in the fridge,
15:50
you know, or even if I bought like a rotisserie chicken that week,
15:53
I will put it over those, over the chips, put some cheese on top.
15:57
Sometimes we'll add corn. Sometimes we'll add black beans.
16:00
Sometimes we won't and we'll just do cheese and then everybody can make their own nachos.
16:04
So like Sarah Mason and I could do like a Mexican theme where we'll put some
16:08
salsa on there and we could add our own corn or our black beans after they cook.
16:12
And then Glory and Jess will do like barbecue chicken situation.
16:17
You know, we just kind of make our own toppings. So a lot of times I'll just
16:20
do the chips with the meat with the cheese.
16:23
And then once they're done in the oven, we'll kind of top it how everybody wants
16:26
to. And the kids love that.
16:29
And another way to just kind of lighten that up is if, you know,
16:32
we keep those mini peppers a lot.
16:35
We like to put them on the grill, but we, and I've done a PFN recipe this way,
16:39
we will just cut those in half, some of those peppers in half and cook them with the,
16:45
chips and the cheese and the meat and so you can kind of lighten it up that
16:49
way by having the base you can have some chips and then some mini peppers to
16:53
kind of just cut the calories a little bit but keep all that protein and all the good stuff,
16:57
All right, Chrissy, your turn. So the next one that we do a pretty good bit,
17:01
Costco has pre-sliced like sirloin meat that you can use. It comes in a pack of two.
17:08
So, again, you can just thaw that out. And then I normally marinate it in like
17:12
lemon juice, Greek seasoning, and then we'll make gyros out of it.
17:17
And then I'll try and make like a homemade tzatziki sauce.
17:21
Or if not, I think Costco sells tzatziki sauce too.
17:24
And so we normally do that like in a wellness wrap. And sometimes we'll make
17:28
sweet potato fries with it.
17:29
Sometimes we're just like, we're just going to have the wrap and maybe like a side salad.
17:33
So we do that a good bit. And then also something that you can find at Costco
17:38
or at Whole Foods is the Kevin's Natural Food Dinners.
17:43
And they have several different pre-made dinners that you can just warm up on top of the stovetop.
17:49
And again, we'll just put it with rice and veggies. Our favorite flavor I think
17:52
that we found is the Thai style coconut chicken.
17:55
And literally you just put the chicken
17:58
in the stovetop and
18:01
then they have a sauce for it and sometimes i'll just not
18:05
put all of the packet of the sauce in there um just
18:07
kind of lighten it up just a little bit and then let call add
18:11
it add it on there or if i want to add it on there yeah we could
18:14
do that too try the korean barbecue i'm looking it up
18:17
oh and the orange chicken we've tried the orange chicken
18:20
i wasn't crazy about the chicken as much
18:23
yeah we do those too i love the what
18:26
was it the barbecue korean barbecue the korean barbecue that
18:29
there's a cilantro oh yeah that one's
18:34
good they kind of vary at costco what they have but
18:37
they usually come in a pack of two do they have i see i mean y'all see them
18:41
at kroger though they're just like more expensive yeah they have them at kroger
18:44
okay they don't have them at my kroger if i get them not like if i get them
18:49
individually i have to get them at whole foods so i don't know where do you find them at Kroger.
18:55
So at Kroger, I find them in...
18:59
I'm drawing a blank. I can see them. But it's over there where,
19:01
like, the bacon and that kind of... The cold meat area. The cold meat area. There you go.
19:08
Yeah. Bacon, hot dogs, like, that kind of situation.
19:12
Okay. Pre-packaged deli meat sometimes. Yeah, there you go. Sometimes, yeah. Yeah.
19:15
But I will say, I wouldn't say that one, like, one box would,
19:23
like, feed a family of, like, four or five.
19:26
They're for a small family. Two people. Like, does Kyle get full when y'all have one box?
19:32
Yeah. For us, too. I mean, I'm trying to think if you would need to do two or
19:36
just one or maybe beef up, like, more veggies and rice or something.
19:40
But they are nice to have just on hand, like, in the freezer to just pull out
19:45
if I haven't even thought. That's what I've been looking for is more freezer
19:48
stuff that, like, just is so weird about meat quality of freezer things.
19:53
Like, there are so many things I've gotten at Costco to try. like and
19:56
he's like please don't buy that again the meat tasted like I
19:59
mean I will say like the meat tastes good like when you pull it
20:02
out of the package it does look it looks
20:05
but it's not I mean it's literally all natural foods like if you read the back
20:09
of the ingredients like it's very very good ingredients I got to go to Costco
20:12
this week I'm gonna do it yeah just try it I think it's just the way that it's
20:16
packaged because it's that soothe soothe bead or soothe bead yeah but I mean
20:21
I agree because you do kind of pull it out and you're like,
20:24
what is this? Okay, I'm glad for that warning, though, right?
20:27
Maybe just have it prepared. Don't let him see. Cook it before he comes home.
20:31
So we love Costco also. And in fact, we're having this for dinner tonight.
20:37
And they're ready to grab section. It's the Chicken Street Tacos.
20:43
And those will feed us for a while. Because my husband, he never travels,
20:47
but he's going to be gone from tomorrow until Sunday. So we're kind of trying
20:51
to find some easy stuff where I'm not going to have to cook and pull it out.
20:54
I just got to say, Paul's like, that's new.
20:57
Our listeners have, like last time you were on, he was traveling all the time. He was.
21:01
So about a year ago, he totally changed career paths and he works from home.
21:07
We both do. We have downsized because one child is at college and it's just
21:12
been a whole different life change for us.
21:14
But which is good because he has gotten more involved in cooking.
21:18
And so he wants to cook and he's, you know, he's like, let me do this.
21:23
And he loves to get like a whole tenderloin or a whole thing.
21:29
Fillet or anything like that and cut it up and freeze it because the poor quality
21:33
of butchering of meat just drives him crazy.
21:36
And he's like, I'm not paying $30 for two steaks that have fat marbled all through it. They didn't trim.
21:42
So he went last week and got a whole ribeye and cut it up and it made 16 steaks. Oh my gosh.
21:49
Yeah. I mean, it's so much more cost effective, even like a Costco.
21:55
He got a whole ribeye at Costco. Yeah. And then he
21:57
gets a whole beef tenderloin filet and he
22:00
cuts it up and then we freeze it because like the ribeyes
22:04
i mean he can eat a pretty good size one but sarah bray and
22:07
i can split one right me and the girls split one for sure yeah so that it stretches
22:12
a long time and it's a whole lot more bang for your butt wow yeah we got one
22:15
of those press and seal like freeze things air vacuum whatever yeah yeah vacuum
22:20
sealer so yeah we do that that is awesome yeah okay i'm gonna tell jess don't be afraid if it's like,
22:26
you know, $8.99 a pound.
22:29
I mean, you're going to walk out of there paying over $100 for this piece of
22:33
meat, but look how many you get.
22:35
Yeah, you go to Kroger to get two ribeyes, depending on the day, it's like $50.
22:40
I'm like, what is happening here? Yeah. Yeah.
22:43
Okay. Okay, mine. It's my turn. Okay.
22:47
So Crock-Pot is your friend. And y'all, we are coming up on soup season.
22:52
Oh, maybe by the time this episode airs, we'll have
22:55
a cold snap day but you know i do
22:58
get sick of like doesn't do y'all feel like sometimes
23:01
crockpot food just is like the same like it tastes the
23:03
same like no matter what you put in there it's like mush chicken same so my
23:11
oldest who is almost 20 like he sent me this tiktok the other day and it was
23:16
this kid walking in the kitchen he saw a crockpot and he walked right out he's like hint
23:22
mom I mean and so
23:25
okay so with that being said I tried it like y'all if
23:28
if you're a client if you only knew how many like how
23:31
many hours I've spent trying to like think of different crockpot recipes
23:34
for us because I know crockpot is so helpful but so one of the ones that we
23:39
do have is a crockpot Mississippi chicken and it's I mean you can find Mississippi
23:43
chicken anywhere on the internet but ours is just a little lighter and so I
23:47
make that and it's something you can put in you can actually put the chicken breast in frozen,
23:51
which is nice to just like drop them in there and go.
23:55
And then I will, when we get home, if I have the afternoon or if I have time
24:00
to do this, I will make some roasted potatoes, just cut up potatoes,
24:04
small, toss them in olive oil and salt and pepper and put them in the oven and
24:08
do like a can of green beans or some roasted broccoli or just something alongside
24:13
it. And there's just something about even like.
24:16
To not have to prepare the meat, again, back to the protein,
24:20
like to not have to prepare it to already have it ready is such,
24:24
it makes dinner feel 12 times easier regardless.
24:27
And so that has been a big one for us. And so we'll have it like that,
24:31
like by itself like that.
24:33
We will use it as leftovers over a baked potato.
24:37
I've even put it on top of a salad. Like talk about flavor.
24:40
You don't even need a dressing, you know, with that juice. I feel like I'm missing
24:44
something with something we do.
24:46
I mean, some people will put it on like a sandwich, but that's not my that's not my favorite way.
24:51
I feel like I'm missing something. You can do quesadillas. You can do.
24:55
I've taken leftover shredded chicken. Like if it's the end of the week and I've
24:58
got a lot of like like we love the little peppers, too, or like spinach.
25:03
And I'll just throw it all in a skillet and just like combine it and make a
25:07
bowl. And yeah, you know, whatever.
25:09
Just so you're not throwing as much food away.
25:12
I've actually gotten one of my PFN Plus clients, and if she listens to this,
25:16
she's going to know who I'm talking about.
25:17
But she has just had the hardest time going to Kroger, and I'm like, Kroger's calling you.
25:23
You've got to get in there and just giving her simple ideas. So you're right.
25:27
It's just if you have that meat base, everything else can fall into place.
25:31
Yeah, get you a bag of frozen vegetables and call it a day. Or get you two pieces of bread, sis.
25:36
Amy, you know, toast them and whatever. Like, and then, so my other just like,
25:42
this isn't an actual thing, like an actual meal, but I do, I think it deserves
25:47
being said, is to just double anything you can think of.
25:51
So like that crockpot chicken, right? So if you are a PFN client,
25:55
one serving of that or one like recipe of that Mississippi crockpot chicken
26:01
will probably feed your family once.
26:03
But if you want to be able to use it again
26:06
over a baked potato or again on a sandwich or whatever it is then like just
26:11
make two of it and again I was like we're saying the same thing over and over
26:15
but like then it'll just be in the refrigerator waiting on you tomorrow for
26:19
dinner and so this is one thing I teach my PFM plus clients and I know we talk
26:23
about this a lot Stacey but like.
26:25
By the end of the week, we are all spent. Like, it's not just you.
26:30
Like, there's nothing wrong with you because by Thursday, you don't feel like cooking dinner, right?
26:34
Like, every single one of us feels that. Like, Krista, right?
26:37
Krista don't even have kids.
26:38
You know, Stacey got these kids that can fend for themselves.
26:41
Like, we all feel that way.
26:43
And so it's not about trying to change yourself. You know, it's not about trying
26:47
to say, this week, I'm going to do better on Thursday and Friday.
26:51
No, it's about saying, this week on Monday, I'm going to think about how I'm
26:56
going to feel on Thursday and Friday.
26:57
Like I'm going to know what to expect of myself. I'm not going to try to make
27:01
myself be any better or different.
27:04
I'm just going to prepare knowing I'm not going to want to cook on Thursday or Friday.
27:09
And so if you don't want to cook on Thursday or Friday and you ain't got no
27:13
food at home, what are you going to do?
27:15
You're going to go through the drive-thru, right? You're going to go out to
27:17
eat. You're going to find an excuse to eat your feelings because,
27:19
you know, you're also tired by the end of the week.
27:21
So the biggest piece of advice I could have is just double anything that you
27:26
can on the front of the week when you are feeling more motivated for your weight
27:29
loss, more motivated with more energy in general.
27:32
And then also just anytime you are meal planning for the week,
27:38
think about, could I freeze this?
27:40
Like, could I double this and then freeze half of it for maybe next week when
27:44
my husband is traveling or when we do have ball every night or,
27:48
you know, they're like, oh, I'm.
27:51
You can almost freeze anything. I mean, I have not found anything that has just
27:56
been absolutely terrible that I've frozen and thawed.
28:00
You know, like noodles can sometimes be tricky, right? They can be soggy.
28:04
But rice, almost anything with rice will thaw.
28:07
And even when I say that, I say that about noodles, but like Million Dollar
28:11
Spaghetti thaws beautifully.
28:15
And I've been making the poppy seed chicken.
28:18
And instead of like making rice separate I'll
28:21
do egg noodles and with it and that
28:24
freezes really well like I did that for Candice and
28:28
so all you do is obviously you don't put the crackers on it but you
28:30
de-thaw it and the egg noodles really do really
28:33
de-thaw very well and then you just put the crackers on
28:36
top so yeah so like anything if you could
28:39
think of anything you're fixing that you could double it do it
28:42
double it and freeze it or double it and have you know a
28:45
different way towards end of the week do it okay those
28:48
are my two okay next breakfast for
28:51
dinner has been one that we've been doing recently whether that's just like
28:55
toasted sourdough bread bread with avocado eggs and maybe kyle likes to make
29:01
like link sausages on sundays when we get home from church just to have throughout
29:06
the week so we'll you know reheat those up and have for breakfast for dinner,
29:11
Sometimes we'll do pancakes, waffles.
29:13
And then another quick thing we do is egg roll in a bowl.
29:18
And that's something that I really feel like Kyle can handle,
29:20
which he can handle anything.
29:22
But I don't, you know, sometimes you just feel guilty of just like asking them to do it. So...
29:27
That's super easy. And so we'll make that in a bowl.
29:31
And then I always let him scramble some eggs to put on top of it because I think that the eggs.
29:37
Scrambled eggs on top of egg roll in a bowl? Oh, I have never in my life.
29:41
Yeah, that's really good. I don't know if that's like abnormal.
29:43
Do y'all eat egg roll in a bowl, Stacey?
29:46
She got a look on her face, y'all.
29:49
I mean, I've had egg in the like in fried rice, but I can't imagine. I don't know.
29:54
I don't know why we put egg in it, but it's good. Yeah.
29:58
My people won't eat egg roll in a bowl. Yeah, I've never made an egg roll in a bowl.
30:02
I love it. I'll make it for lunches for myself some weeks, but they won't,
30:07
you know, too much vegetable looking stuff up in there.
30:10
And I don't know if you do this, but I love edamame, so I'll put edamame in
30:14
there too. I do love edamame so much.
30:17
That's like a protein packed dinner you're sitting there describing.
30:20
Like my word. So what, it's just like ground beef and like a slaw mix?
30:26
Yeah, well, normally sometimes we just need like a break from ground beef or
30:31
ground venison. So I'll normally do ground turkey.
30:34
And then you get a package of shredded cabbage and then soy sauce, sesame oil.
30:42
It's really easy. It's super easy. I have an Instapot recipe where you just
30:46
like put it all in there and it's done. And then I add edamame in there,
30:50
and then we'll scramble eggs and put on top of it. I don't know why. That's amazing.
30:56
That may be my dinner tomorrow night because she's not going to be home and
30:59
Ben's out of town. You would love that, I think. I mean, I love an egg roll.
31:04
Lovedovers are really, they heat up. Yeah, it sits in its own juice, so it's good.
31:10
All right. Well, check that one off the list for this week.
31:14
Something else we like, and we usually try to have some kind of protein on the
31:19
side, but think I'm saying it right. It's La Terafina.
31:22
They make a quiche. At Costco, you can get a two pack. There's like a quiche
31:27
Lorraine and there's a broccoli cheese quiche.
31:30
And nutritionally wise, they're pretty healthy, but I think it's only got like
31:34
11 or 12 grams of protein. So, I mean, I'd be fine with it with a side salad,
31:40
but my husband usually will put a piece of chicken thigh or something or a drumstick
31:44
on the side. But we love those.
31:45
Or you could do like sausage links like Krista was just talking about. We could. We could.
31:49
We've just kind of gotten away from doing sheet pan meals. I feel like I burned
31:53
my crew out from doing those.
31:56
So, and now that his job is less stressful, he's in there cooking more.
32:01
But always have Lean Cuisine pizzas in my freezer. Okay, so y'all,
32:06
linguine pizzas are a thing.
32:07
Yes, they are. And I think it's my fault, and I'm cool with it. I love them.
32:13
Of course, I love a good gourmet pizza, but this is just as good.
32:18
And I'll keep turkey pepperoni and put that on there and a side salad, and it's good.
32:23
Something we do, and this is an easy-to-go meal, is I keep pizza crust.
32:28
I'll just buy them and keep them in the freezer, and you can pull them out.
32:31
So if you've got leftover ground
32:32
beef or chicken, you can make any kind of healthy-ish pizza real quick.
32:38
I mean, a barbecue chicken or we love a hamburger pizza.
32:43
Yeah. You know, stuff like that that you can just you can have.
32:47
What brand crust are you getting?
32:49
They make a protein crust. If I can find the big one, I can only find the many ones.
32:56
Some and I get them at Kroger but they have a bigger one and it has like I want
33:00
to say it's like 18 grams of protein in the crust and the ingredients are really clean um.
33:07
I can't remember the other one. It's a three-pack. It's a thin crust.
33:11
But then I love the... You know, we're just talking about this.
33:13
Were we talking about it with Claire? Okay. Yeah.
33:17
We also love the non-bread pizza crust because you get a lot of pizza crust for a serving.
33:25
Wait, it's actually called non-bread pizza crust or you're just using the non-bread rounds?
33:30
No, they have a pizza crust. It's not the flatbread.
33:33
It literally says... Where is it? It's a round pizza crust.
33:36
Near it like right beside it oh because that's so i bought a bunch of the nine bread.
33:42
Last week and i froze i'm frozen but sarah mason will
33:45
ask for breakfast pizza in the morning and y'all if she asked for
33:48
a breakfast i'm like baby let me make you a breakfast because she usually wants
33:51
just like a bar or something so i will do that those
33:54
they're like the mini ones the really small ones with i
33:58
will scramble literally a egg maybe two eggs
34:01
crumble some bacon and melt some cheese on top and she thinks
34:05
it hung the moon you know yeah i think like a
34:08
half of half the crust is deserving okay of
34:11
the pizza i'm gonna have to look for that so do you freeze the mini ones i do
34:16
yeah and so when you take it out you gotta leave it on the counter you do have
34:19
to let it fall before you put the toppings on it and put it in the oven yeah
34:23
i've never yeah i've never tried not because that would be super quick and easy
34:29
for a night i'll try that this week and i'll let you know No,
34:31
because so I also bought some already frozen ones from Trader Joe's last time
34:36
we were down there. And I have not pulled those out yet.
34:39
But it would make sense that everything would just kind of melt down and cook
34:42
up at one time in the oven, even if it was frozen. So I don't see why you couldn't.
34:48
Yeah, I'm just curious if it would get soggy. Yeah, we'd have to see. Huh.
34:52
OK, there was something else you said, Krissa. What were your two that I thought,
34:56
what were your two just now you said?
34:58
Egg roll in a bowl and then breakfast for dinner.
35:02
Oh, okay. Yes. I wanted to say, so...
35:05
A breakfast casserole, we made that. We made it yesterday morning.
35:10
Krista's husband was out of town and said she spent the night with us.
35:12
And we had so much fun this weekend.
35:15
And so I got up Sunday morning and I made a breakfast casserole.
35:20
And so I have, you know, it was a 9 by 13 pan. And so we had tons left over.
35:24
And so we just kept it in the fridge.
35:27
And the girls ate it for breakfast this morning. They'll probably eat it again
35:31
for breakfast tomorrow morning.
35:32
But whatever I have left, I'm just going to freeze. in the freezer into individual servings.
35:39
And then again, breakfast is really hard for my crew. And so Lori's actually
35:43
eating this breakfast, which I'm like, oh my gosh.
35:45
And so I will thaw it out and reheat it in the microwave for those quick mornings.
35:50
So that's not a dinner, but it could easily be a dinner. You know,
35:54
it's got sausage, eggs, cheese, croissant, like, or crescent roll.
35:57
Like it's, it is, it's dinner in itself. So that would be a good just breakfast
36:01
for dinner situation that you could also freeze and pull out when you needed it.
36:05
I know. And I woke up Sunday morning and she was in there making a breakfast
36:09
casserole. I'm like, is this every Sunday? No.
36:12
We have guests. Let me not make my kids eat a Z-bar on Sunday morning.
36:19
Oh, my gosh. Okay. So my next two.
36:24
So this first one is such a childhood thing. So growing up, my mom,
36:30
when she didn't feel like cooking, my mom worked a full-time job, had three kids.
36:34
My dad ran his own business. My sisters and I were in soccer and dance and cheer
36:39
and all the things. So our household growing up was wild.
36:42
And so mom would often have macaroni and butter.
36:47
And that was dinner, okay? And so it was elbow macaroni noodles.
36:53
And then she would take butter and like put it in a in a skillet and brown it
37:01
like take it to where it was almost brown and then she would pour it over the
37:04
macaroni noodles and that was it okay like that was our poor man dinner or whatever but but.
37:11
My kids have gone over there and she has made it for them and they love it so
37:16
much. And so do I. Don't you love it? Do you ever eat it?
37:19
No, I don't. The only, the last time I ate it was when I was pregnant and I
37:23
could not. You are, you're still, you're currently pregnant.
37:27
Well, first trimester. I'm so sorry. In my first trimester and I could not.
37:30
This was last week. What do you mean?
37:32
And I could not stop. It was whenever I made that. The Philly cheese. The Philly cheese.
37:37
Yes. And I was like, I just have a feeling that I'm not going to be able to
37:40
eat this. So I put the egg noodles to the side and I made butter.
37:43
That was like literally the first time I've had that since I've lived in mom and dad's house.
37:47
And you made it and you couldn't stomach it. No, I ate it and it was good,
37:51
but it's not something that I would like make on a regular basis or crave.
37:55
What? Yeah. I don't know why. I mean, I was weird like that,
37:58
though. Like when I was, I don't know, I would rather like mom's roast. Yeah.
38:03
I was always about the macaroni and butter. So now my kids request it.
38:07
And so oftentimes, like, I make it and I just try to have like a protein with it, right?
38:14
Like I try to have like some pulled chicken on top of it.
38:18
We have done like, because we do deer sausage too. So we've done like some deer
38:22
sausage links on the side.
38:23
Like we, but y'all, it ain't the healthiest, but it is one of our favorite just fast dinners.
38:29
Like it's one of those things where you're like, I am not going through the
38:31
drive-thru and spending money again this week on food.
38:34
But I am also not standing in this kitchen and cooking another thing and so it's a really good,
38:39
meal and if you know that in the beginning of the day then plan for it you know
38:43
if you're tracking put what a cup of noodles and then how many tablespoons of
38:49
butter and then that's your dinner and like just work around it you know and
38:53
it's like a little bit of that butter goes a long way it does a long way I know when Kyle cooks our eggs.
39:00
He'll put so much butter in it. And it's so good. But it's just like,
39:04
do you have to put that much butter? It's not necessary.
39:06
Most of the time, it's not necessary to put like all the butter.
39:09
But yeah, it will go a little bit. But I love some butter. Yeah, me too.
39:12
And then my next one is the mini tacos from, you can get them at Costco or Sam's.
39:18
They're in the frozen section.
39:20
They come in a big old box with like 72. They may have them at Walmart and Kroger. I just don't know.
39:26
But again, they're just easy. They're frozen. They're little tiny tacos.
39:29
Tacos you can put them on a sheet pan let
39:32
them cook while you're getting your bath or whatever and then they're ready
39:34
sarah mason and i like to have them with like a little sour cream or you could
39:39
get guacamole they have that what's that sauce at costco stacy that comes in
39:43
the tacos it's you know what i'm talking about the lacrima or is it is that
39:48
what it is i think yeah it's like.
39:51
Green and yes yeah i think it's lacrima i don't
39:54
know but anyway that sauce you can buy that separately at Costco and have that
39:58
if you want it with your tacos but they're full of chicken usually like they're
40:02
packed full of chicken and so you can have several for like 200 calories or
40:06
something yeah those are really good yeah that's my my crew's fave I mean well Sarah Mason's anyway,
40:12
All right, that's me. I really don't have that many more.
40:15
I think I mentioned quesadillas earlier in the episode. So we do a lot of quesadillas.
40:21
And then there is one thing that I've been eating more so than normal while
40:25
I've been pregnant is peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.
40:28
And then like this past weekend, Kyle was out of town, like Constance said,
40:32
and I needed a just like a I didn't feel like cooking.
40:34
And so I just had a peanut butter and jelly sandwich and then have a side of
40:37
like cottage cheese and I dipped a chip in it. And so to try and get some sort
40:41
of like more protein so that I'm not starving at midnight.
40:45
So, yeah, that's really all my quick meals.
40:49
Okay. Do you still? Yes.
40:52
What? Do you know what I'm about to say? Dip my popcorners in cottage cheese? No. No.
40:59
Or? Stacey's going to throw up right here on the podcast. Or what is it that
41:03
you bought this past week?
41:05
What did? Oh, pork rinds? Pork rinds. you dip those
41:08
in cottage cheese i used to i don't do it as much oh no
41:12
nothing in cottage cheese okay but in our childhood okay
41:16
it was this was another thing we did we dipped chips
41:19
in yogurt plain yogurt yes and
41:22
that's where i got the whole cottage cheese thing from that's
41:26
where i'm like okay what's a like what's a healthier ish lays
41:29
so i'm like okay popcorners and then i just like the texture of cottage cheese
41:34
better but i will put it in if i'm out of cottage cheese and can't find it for
41:37
three weeks like i did a couple weeks ago i'll do yogurt i love i love lace
41:43
chip and yeah yogurt yeah well folks that's about all for this episode.
41:51
I wish i did not have an honest abe face i've been trying to go oh yum,
41:57
i don't know where mom got that i don't know either
41:59
i was just thinking that the other day like where did she come up with this but
42:02
i don't know do you whip the cottage cheese or oh okay all
42:06
right we're gonna talk about some vegetables she is not a cottage
42:09
cheese I really am
42:13
not so we're gonna talk about some vegetables that I keep on hand
42:16
because if you have your meat I mean people know that I'm a vegetable police
42:20
and my family makes so much fun of me because they're like we don't need something
42:23
green with every meal yeah you do the many seedless peppers because I cannot
42:28
stand to get the seeds out of peppers I'm just I'm just that lazy it drives
42:32
me crazy because it's like they multiply when you're trying to like scrape them off.
42:35
We always have broccoli and then.
42:39
I think we decided it's called Pura Vida. Is that what it's called?
42:42
Pura? Pura something. From the Costco.
42:45
It's a vegetable medley at Costco.
42:48
And sometimes in the fall, they'll have another one that has like root vegetables.
42:54
Mm-hmm. Those are our favorite. Yeah, Pura Vida. And then,
42:58
so I went to Kroger yesterday and like
43:01
to keep kind of a frozen stir fry vegetable
43:04
situation because you can always turn
43:07
something into you know a Chinese Asian
43:10
dish so that's good yeah but
43:14
no cottage cheese in my mouth all right
43:17
are you done yes okay so I've
43:21
got a couple more that I'm just going to run down one thing
43:24
so I always like Stacey was saying keeping vegetables right like
43:27
that is again like don't go out and buy all the vegetables Stacey
43:30
just named if you don't like like peppers you know
43:32
what I mean don't buy the things that you know don't sound good to you
43:35
but if you just keep a few things on hand that you that does
43:38
sound good to you you know that can come in very
43:41
handy so I will keep chopped lettuce in my refrigerator at all times whether
43:46
I'm having a salad for lunch this week or not like I just know we'll always
43:51
use lettuce at some point and so bought the have y'all bought the Rao R-A-O-S
43:58
the Rao's brand pizzas have you Yes, yes.
44:01
You actually turned me on to this. They're good. Candice loves them too.
44:05
They're expensive though, but Kroger had them on a sale. And so I bought a couple
44:09
of those and like it will be nothing for me.
44:13
Probably one night this week to cook one and then give the kids pizza for dinner.
44:20
And then I'll have, Jess and I would have a salad, or maybe Sarah Mason too
44:23
would have a salad with it. And I talk about this all the time in the community
44:27
and here, like, ain't nothing wrong with pizza.
44:30
What's wrong with pizza is the grease field, tons of meat, tons of fat.
44:35
You had five pieces. Like, that's the problem.
44:38
And so if you can have one or two slices of pizza with a good side salad,
44:43
and the freezer pizzas are typically less greasy than, like, the pizza place pizzas.
44:48
And so one or two slices with a side salad, you go, sis.
44:52
Like, you didn't do nothing wrong tonight for dinner. so we
44:54
do that and then also we keep deer sausage just
44:58
hunts and so we will have that in a heartbeat with veggies
45:01
so I love it on the grill but a lot
45:04
of times during the week we just don't have time for all that so I will you
45:07
know cook it and we'll butterfly it and cook it in the oven and then have either
45:11
rice or you know asparagus or broccoli we used to have corn with it till glory
45:16
just started like literally flipping tables if we serve corn at dinner y'all
45:20
it is awful like it is awful and so So, you know,
45:23
just usually a green veggie of some sort and then a starch of some sort.
45:28
We will do a grilled cheese, like Chris has said, a PB&J or a turkey sandwich
45:32
in a heartbeat. There are some nights...
45:35
During the week that we literally don't walk in the door till nine o'clock.
45:39
Now, some nights where I'm blessed that Jess takes all the activities.
45:44
And so I can be home and have dinner ready when everybody walks in the door at nine o'clock.
45:49
But when he's gone or when we're on Thursdays, we're going different ways.
45:53
Like I've got one kid, he's got the other and none of us are home till nine o'clock.
45:57
It's just whatever we can find. So we will do grilled cheese, turkey sandwich.
46:01
I always keep some deli turkey on hand, and I make my own sourdough bread for my own turkey sandwich.
46:08
And then a happy plate is what we call this. We had this last Thursday.
46:13
We may have it again this Thursday.
46:15
It's basically just pull out whatever you got in the fridge that pairs up well.
46:19
I mean, that's really what I make a lot of my kids' lunches out of is like a
46:24
meat, a cheese, a veggie, a fruit, a cracker, like whatever, you know, pretzels.
46:29
And like today I sent them in their lunchbox. They asked for a happy plate with
46:34
the chocolate sauce for lunch today.
46:38
And so what that is, is I gave them a rolled up piece of turkey and Sarah Mason
46:42
got two and then pretzels, animal cookies, chocolate hummus,
46:49
and strawberries and raspberry mix. Yeah.
46:53
And so that they love that. And so we'll do something like that a lot.
46:57
So it'll be olives and pickles. And I love those Nann Crisps or non-crisp,
47:03
however you say them, pretzel crisps.
47:06
You know, we'll get those everything bagel chips or whatever.
47:10
But with pepperoni, turkey pepperoni, deli meat, if we have some sliced sausage,
47:15
and then any kind of cheese, we always keep all kinds of cheese.
47:18
And then grapes or any other, I mean, my kids do like fruit.
47:23
So any other kind of fruit. So it's just, you can mix it up and make it different,
47:27
even though it's really the same thing, you know, that they had for lunch.
47:31
And then my last one, which if you guys heard the podcast with Laura Freeman,
47:36
you know, like we are all about some cereal here.
47:39
Now, is it, is it as healthy as, you know, some of the things that we've named off here today?
47:45
No, ma'am, it's not. Like, is it as filling? No, ma'am, it's not.
47:48
But in a pinch, if it's, okay, I have a choice here. I can run through McDonald's
47:54
that's right by the ball field, or I can just go home and eat a bowl of cereal.
47:58
I'm going to choose the cereal all day long, right? Because I know that that,
48:02
even if it's like Lucky Charms or something wild, you know, like super sugary,
48:07
I know that that's still probably going to run me better,
48:10
like weight loss focus wise,
48:13
than the fried, you know, chicken sandwich or the hamburger and the french fries
48:18
will at nine o'clock at night.
48:20
You know. What's your go-to cereal these days? These days, as always,
48:24
it's been the same. It's Raisin Bran.
48:27
I'm obsessed with Raisin Bran. Because weren't you on the...
48:29
I'm such a grandmother. I know I was on a...
48:32
Chocolatey delight I alternate yes okay and when it's close to period time.
48:39
If I don't get if I don't do the chocolatey delight I like just by y'all I look
48:44
like if you've ever seen me at Kroger I mean I have my buggy piled with cereal
48:49
almost every it is so embarrassing I'm like I'm gonna see all these people out
48:53
here but Jess loves frosted flakes So anytime they're on sale,
48:57
I get Frosted Flakes by the box and box and box full.
49:02
So sometimes I'll have those too if I want, like, I mean, that's an extra sugar
49:05
high right there. Have you ever mixed them?
49:07
Ew. No. I just didn't know if, like, I haven't had Raisin Bran in forever.
49:11
So I didn't know if, like, you mix Raisin Bran and Frosted Flakes.
49:14
And then it would make the sugar go, like, a longer way. Like,
49:19
I don't know if you would.
49:20
Yeah, because I do put a teaspoon of sugar on top of my Raisin Bran.
49:22
So if you just put a little bit of Frosted Flakes in with your Raisin Bran,
49:25
I bet it would. I might do that.
49:26
But I'm telling y'all, I buy, Jess probably eats three boxes of Frosted Flakes a week.
49:31
Are you joking? It's insane. No. I mean, he eats, one bowl is like half the box. It's wild.
49:37
So, I mean, I buy Frosted Flakes like. That's like $60 in series.
49:41
Girl, who are you telling? And that's why when it's on sale,
49:45
I'm like, let me buy all these boxes.
49:48
They overflowing and then, you know, it never fails. they're like somebody's
49:51
like hey clients I'm like hey let me give you my dietitian card.
50:00
But so but anyway all that to say you know it's not again it's not about one
50:05
of my clients one of my PFM plus clients I said it on a podcast and she she
50:09
says it back to me every week now she says her husband says it to her too of course she's lost like.
50:14
Probably like 12 pounds by now. And her husband's also like 25,
50:18
y'all, of course, you know, but they say, you know, better not perfect.
50:22
And so that's it, right? Like we are going to be in the roads. We're going to be busy.
50:25
We're going to have crazy chaos going on, right? And so it's about what decision
50:30
can I make that's going to make me feel better than the other decision?
50:34
And so for a lot of us, that truly is.
50:36
I know if I pull, Constance Shelby knows if I pull up at Chick-fil-A at 830
50:41
at night, it's going to be the French fries.
50:43
I mean, it's, you know, and so I know that cereal is going to be a better choice
50:48
for me or even a happy plate is going to be the better choice for me than pulling up at Chick-fil-A.
50:53
And so you've got to learn to like let yourself be OK with that.
50:58
Be OK with the fact that you chose a cereal instead of, you know,
51:01
McDonald's or whatever.
51:02
And don't beat yourself up over the fact that it wasn't the grilled veggies
51:06
and grilled chicken and prep meal
51:08
today because like otherwise we're never going to reach our goals right,
51:12
so okay anything else y'all want to say i'm
51:15
done i think i'm good okay well i
51:18
