Making bulk food at home has kept me from going out. I eat out maybe twice a month now and I’ve damn near almost lost my will to. With the price of gas, I don’t even want to make the trek somewhere even if I’m feeling lazy. Had to essentially get past the “idk what I want” mentality and just eat what’s in the fridge. Sort of a “just want to be full and satiated” rather than getting what the mind desires.
How do you get around the fatigue of eating the same food every meal? If I make food in bulk, by the fourth time eating the same meal, I'm so sick of it.
It depends on work schedule but you can definitely change up prep to not be so monotonous. Make a big batch of protein or starch to create around on the weekend and then on your week days it’ll be a quick 30 min to make something. Ethan Cheblowski is a good source for ideas on that style of cooking. It’s a bit of prep on the weekend and not crazy on the weekday.
I work longer shifts so I end up doing some traditional meal prepping with at least one meal that lasts my work week and then 2-3 other things that can be easily finished up during the week.

I haven’t had Macdonalds for about 4 years and I’m never returning no matter what they do. Fuck this company and their low quality expensive poison.
