Have you looked at those food subscription boxes only to conclude that they are pricey? Have you surfed through Pinterest for meal prep recipes only to be overwhelmed with options that still seem boring? Do you still want to meal prep and save money? Well, I have a solution for you!
I am a part of a giant food distributor called Costco that sells food in bulk for business owners. (There are other ways to become members of such distributors without owning a business though, so do not fret.) Sam’s Club also offers similar products.
Since moving out on my own and I have little time to cook, prep and figure out what to eat. I also really don’t want to throw money away by eating out all the time. And those subscription boxes seem so pricey to try and make something that I may not even like and will throw away. Although there are benefits of such subscriptions, this is a new way to prep without the fear of not liking food you bought. My mom actually taught me this trick without having to pay for some special service, box or subscription that I might not even find tasty.
At a place such as Costco, people can buy meals in bulk. I recently bought ground beef, chicken, pork tenderloin, Mahi, beef stew meat and sausage for the next 3-4 months. All of this meat along with other supplemental things such as kitchen utensils and bulk laundry detergents only cost $241.50. When estimated, that is only $60.00 a month for 4 months of quality food and cleaning supplies that I know that I like and will use.
For example, one $14.00 package of sausage created 5 meals for one person and one $16.00 package of pork tenderloin created 6 meals for one person. Usually, the average person will spend $16.00 or more on one meal alone. So to have 5 meals for $16.00 is well worth it.
My mom taught me how to prep everything. Once all the meat and food is bought, you can section it off at home and wrap it in tinfoil. Once in the tinfoil, label a freezer bag with the name of the meat/ food and store in freezer. In the mornings, simply take out what you are to make for dinner that night to thaw and then little has to be done from there.
All in all, I now have prepped meals to make for myself with food that I know I love to eat. All that has to be done is make a side to go with my meal and cook it, and then you are golden!
