cooking in bulks

if i cook like 10 chicken breasts at once and than store them in the fridge nd eat them as needed will this bring the nutrients the chicken breasts possess? and same goes for ground beef

You may lose a small amount of vitamins and minerals while cooking, but if stored properly, nutrients will not be lost while storing in the fridge.

ya i am going to store both of them in fridge, i just hate cooking everyday and like every 2-3 hours or if im in a rish i dont have the time to cook so i end up missing a meal or replacing with something smaller and quicker.

I cook all my meals the night before mate. Stick them in seperate containers and then in the fridge the next day. Means you dont have to do anything but get them out of the fridge when its time to eat.

[Leet141]

thats a good idea i think im going to do that

[Leet141]

what about sweet potatos? cook em on the bbq than u can refrigerate em?

[EatLiftGrow]

Sure can bro. I purchased a small OSTER Steamer from Target, I chop up my potatoes into small chunks and steam them. Along with any other veg you want. Then put them into seperate containers with your meats and fridge them. Or whatever your diet allows.

sweet i should grab one of those steamers that seems like a good idea. thanks for the help guys

I cook chicken twice a week for 3-4 days at a time. Makes life easier. I microwave my sweet potatoes. Not sure if that destroys any nutritional values but I'm pretty sure it won't make a carb disappear and that's why I eat them!

Yup, just nuke em. My kitchen at work is over run with bags of sweet potatoes.

My mom usually cooks enough for two or three days and boils enough eggs for two days so I can just get it and put it on my lil plastic containers in the morning before work.

what about waking up to have a protien shake or a glass of milk in the middle of the night

What about it?

[Leet141]

is it good, or is it over doing it?

[Jakspro]

I wouldn't now.

But I have before. I didn't see any benefits, but there are those who swear by it.

I grill my chiken and fridge it up! Sometimes could tast dry when reheating in the micro-wave! Nothing that a little sauce cant fix!
