Been doing this for over a decade now. Minor variations in veggies, switched from chicken to beans and rice about a year ago. I love it. Very affordable and I never have to think about lunch.
I’ve had a co-worker call me a “bad man” when I told him I just eat the same thing everyday. I get it tho, people need to change things up. But for me as long as it has nutrients and doesn’t taste bad I genuinely don’t care that it’s exactly the same.
I wish I was like this. I grew up on a lot of the same meals over and over because my mom worked her ass off and didn’t have time to cook fresh all the time. Now I can’t stand having to eat the same meal even twice in a week. It wasn’t so bad when I was less busy but now I am busy and feel exhausted when I have to think of new meals to make.
Right?! I love a good time-intensive meal now again, but other things can be nice too. If I can make 7 days of food in the time it takes to make 1 day of unique meals, that frees a dozen hours to do something else. I can wait until Christmas to try that 5 hour lasagne recipie. Meanwhile I can focus on what’s important… like shitpost comments
Meal prepping the same lunch.

What is your lunch? Rice and beans with a veggie side? Anything else?

What do you make that lasts 7 days? Or do you freeze it?
