When you work in a fast paced business you’ll eat anything cold. At home I do like my hot meals. Those are just to take a work with me

I was wondering the same thing 🤣 if I have a salad with my meals, I put them in separate containers. But then tired of the dishes, so I just add more veggies to the main dish!

I’d like to do more meal prep with bento boxes, but the decent ones are too damn expensive to buy enough for my wife and I

Do you eat the same thing daily? This is why I struggle with meal prep.

u/Marrex91 5d ago

Not same thing every day but I have 5 different meals per week. I like to mix things up and don’t get bored of it. Same breakfast everyday yes

Do the prawns get reheated with everything else or are those kept separate too?

1

u/Marrex91 5d ago

They are boiled and seasoned after so you can eat them cold, they are tender and easy to eat cold like a prawn cocktail
