      I split that payment into five meals. I get a chicken bowl with extra rice and beans and all the free fixinz, then I shake it up and spoon it into tortillas and wrap them into individual burritos. Freeze and you have a zero effort M-F meal prep you just need to microwave each day, at about 300 cal each (get extra cheese too actually, and go heavy on the hot salsa, it’s tasty.)

          Wait why?! I just like to stretch meals as far as I can with what I have available hahaha. One burrito or bowl is way too much for me, but if I get a bowl and load it up, it goes far.

          Otherwise I cook chorizo, make cilantro lime rice, cook flavored pepper beans, and put all of that with cheese into burritos which takes hours… sometimes I want someone else to do it for me and I tip them and have out with my boi for those extra hours.

          Quick edit: I should mention it’s not actually a money thing for me, it’s a time thing. But for anyone looking to save time AND money, it works out well!
