He has a few recipes that make 6 meals but you can split them into 5 for a bulking-type meal. I take his hidden veggie mac and cheese and split it into 5 meals which breaks down to about 700 calories and 73g of protein.
@@TheMealPrepManual Please more, I have 1 great pasta bulking meal and I did your pasta meal too but I need some variation, I can’t keep eating the same things every week. This chilli will be great for abit but definitely keep ‘em coming, all about that variety.
I feel you bro i lost 30 Pound in 2 months all the pound i gained this years ive lost it all its ruff on the mind and to keep working out because off dépression
Chili has always been a go-to bulking recipe for me! It's naturally high in calories, super nutrient dense, and easy to make in huge batches. You can just throw together a huge pot with like 15-20 minutes of total prep and have lunch for a week. It also helps that chili is really nice on a cold winter day, which just so happens to align with bulking season for many athletes.
Bro this is seriously the best meal prep youtube channel. No BS side stories, exact measurements, great technique and macros provided. And measurements converted to metric! 🇦🇺 Going to sub to your website cheers bro
Just a tip - replace that white rice with wild rice/long grain blend for more nutrients and a better flavour profile as well, the white rice has had most of the good stuff leeched out through processing....
I'm so glad I found your videos. I think following your recipes will be the thing that finally keeps my husband on track with his food goals. We've been struggling to find something that works for both of us. Cooking spereately for him and the family is a challenge but these all seem like something we can all enjoy. Thank you! I plan on becoming a gold member in the new year!
Thanks for this, brother. Wife and I are on a tight budget now with 2 kids while moving into a new home. We both have full time jobs. Just did this recipe and I’m ready to start this meal prep journey, man. You’ve got my full attention
I love this channel, he has been helping thousands of people such as my self to reach there fitness goals, if it wasn’t for this channel I would have still been a hopeless fat fuck, thank you for your amazing content!!!
I made this with 90/10 beef and it still came out amazing. I also didn’t include the rice or corn bread muffin so cut soem calories Ended up coming in at 740 calories per and is my favorite meal prep to date, highly recommend it
I just wanna say thank you so much for these recipes!!! I’ve been wanting to meal prep for a while now and every time I research meal prep, the recipes are either complicated, expensive, or the recipe only makes a couple meals. My friend and I are planning on using these recipes and tomorrow we’re getting the ingredients:) thank you for making such simply put recipes with a whole weeks worth of servings!! You’re making my life so much easier right now!!
This is the best meal prep channel. it shows well balanced meals with carbs , protein and vegetables and it shows a variety of ways to meal prep . Other meal prep and bodybuilding channels are just all the same showing how to make broccoli, chicken and rice with some teriyaki sauce , or pasta with tomato sauce and hamburger like that stuff is boring and that is not a diet I'm going to realistically stick to . This channel brings new life to your meals.
I have made this a few times. I recommend storing the muffins in the freezer and thaw them in the microwave, because I got mold on them after four days.
I think this is what I'll make next week. Also, I have to say thanks for the videos and recipes, you got me to give meal prepping another go and aside from a couple weeks when I was traveling it's stuck for 6 months now!
This is a perfectly fine meal for cutting as well for some I would think. Subtract the cornbread obviously and then take out the rice or beans or maybe even both. Plan on trying this one with my wife this weekend. Will probably make a batch after that for myself with some habaneros instead of poblanos as I love spice.
Great recipe! Would you happen to have InstantPot (pressure cooker) instructions? I don't own a separate large cooking pot and would like to set it and forget it for the cooking phase.
Someone probably asked this already, but I missed an answer, @Josh Cortis: Why do you hold your utensils in the strangest of ways? lol I just had to know. It's a unique thing I've never really seen before. Awesome video, btw. Keep it up, man.
If you're looking for a chili recipe in the future that works very well with a larger amount of carbs, Cincinnati chili is a great option. It's basically a slightly thicker chili poured onto rice/spaghetti (any other pasta works). It has a bit of a strange flavor because you use chocolate as part of the seasoning, but you might wanna check it out.
I'm on my third week of meal prepping and the coolest thing Josh has shown me is that you can hide your veggies in anything. He didn't say anything about putting a zucchini or spinach or carrots in this chili but I DID IT ANYWAY and it's delicious. Thanks Man for the concise and informative videos!
ay bro this is a life savior cause my cut is 3000 cals you know hoe many meals a day I had to eat before i saw this video, thank you and keep up the amazing cooking
I've been making this for like 2 years now, it's just a solid cheap chilli recipe. Whenever I just don't want to cook for a week I spend an hour and a half on this and dinner is just... solved.
Just went to Publix and got all the ingredients for 65. (Including spices and basic ingredients) I might have enough to make 7-8 meals. Per meal is looking around 8-14. Less if you already have the basics.
Hey dude, I make look forwad to seeing your new videos, im loving the 1000cal meals, im a cyclist and when im getting in a lot of K's these keep me full and happy !
I’m meal prepping this now for my boyfriend IT’s tasting pretty good. I added more more of potatoes/onions/ peppers/ and garlic though. Along with more of the seasoning portions you use. And using 80/20 ground beef (it’s all they had.) Im cooking the rice separately though since that’s what’s we’re used too. This is fairly simple and easy to make. (Cutting corners a bit though with using jiffy corn bread 🥹. Sorry but it’s late at night. Issa ready to relax) He wants to put if weight This seems like a sure fire way to do so
To tweak the recipe for the cornbread I would like to opt for erythritol sweetener or monk fruit sweetener. To avoid sugar spikes or limit sugar intake...I'm not against sugar but if anyone would want to limit sugar intake those options would be the way to go.
I am curious as to why you used potatoes over beans, especially considering beans are traditional and beans+rice= complete protein source. Great video though, definitely will be stealing a few of these tips!
Also, great anabolic chili tip is to use cottage cheese instead of sour cream & make a "protein" cornbread. If someone who likes to mix the cornbread into the chili like me, you might want to save yourself the time and energy and instead mix up a small amount of masa flour in water and add that. It will be less calories, less work, but it will provide the same texture as when you mix in the cornbread.
dawg you really gotta either peel your russets or use a different strain of potato whose skin tastes good when boiled. russet skins only taste good when baked or fried, they turn into wet cardboard flavored dirt when under wet heat
Great video Josh! What would you recommend for someone that is trying to lose weight while still building muscle (or at least maintain mass and strength)? I'm maintaining a caloric deficit of anywhere from 500-1000 calories a day and a lot of my calories come from protein. My workout routine is 15-30 minutes of intense cardio 5 days a week with lifting 4 days a week. Thank you for the videos, your meal preps have really helped me out!
500-1000 calorie deficit is way too much when you're trying to lose weight while building muscle. Stick around 100-300(at most) calorie deficit. It'll take longer to lose the extra fat you want to lose but it'll also stop you from burning out and fatigueing (and potentially causing injury). With that much of a calorie deficit you will not build muscle, you'll probably barely retain what you have if not actually lose some mass. Good luck, you can do it. Dont take my word for it, go look up what youtubers like Jeff Nippard say. Almost any youtuber I've come across has said those exact words. Don't go too low when cutting or too high when bulking. Going for extremes is always bad in the long run. And if you are finally at a weight where you're comfortable and wish to continue building muscle then go for a slight calorie surplus with like you said a lot (about 25-30%)of it coming from healthy proteins.
So, hear me out. If I wanted to make this as a cutting calories meal instead of bulking, could I remove the potato and the rice along with the cornbread and get it down to, say, 600 calories? I only ask because I'm trying to lose weight and many of your recipes are helping me do just that. I want to have this one in rotation since we're getting into winter, but I just don't need 1000 calorie meals at this phase.

Thanks a bunch, couldn't really be bothered with the bread
Trying to regain weight after a long period of depression, these high calorie meals are awesome, thanks a bunch
hope they are helpful
I feel you bro i lost 30
Pound in 2 months all the pound i gained this years ive lost it all its ruff on the mind and to keep working out because off dépression
Bro im so confused. 1000 calories for a meal is supposed to be high?
@@Jorgeee Yes. 1000 calories for 1 portion is on the higher end
hows the bulk going?
Another tip for onion criers: sharper knife = less smashed cell walls = less crying gas produced
another tip: put the onion into the freezer for 2 mins before you cut it
I used a hazmat suit personally
I deadass wear swimming goggles
cutting them under the microwave with the vent fan on also gets rid of any crying
When i cut onions, the onion starts crying.

I love that you specify measurements in the metric system!
Onions aren’t a problem for me, I’m always crying anyway.
Leave em in the fridge, keeps the onion fluid cold and thus preventing from vaporising and ending up in your eyes.
Happyness is not optimal for gains anyways
Mr. Josh you are the man. All your recipes are so good, so simple! And thank you for the variety of both low and high calorie

Made this twice now. Best chili ever. Very helpful for someone who struggles with gaining weight such as myself. Thanks so much.
Made it last week, and made it again for this week. Absolutely love it!
thank you for these high calorie meal preps. every meal prep video on youtube is low calorie weight loss. need more of these!!!
🙌🙌

great to hear that 😎
Made this today and I didn't even make it as good as I could've and it's amazing I didn't bother with the cornbread and it's still incredibly filling
Just found your channel. Simple easy. Awesome thanks bro!💯
Keep the bulking videos coming 👍🏼 it’s that time of year
going to try and do 1 a month
I really look forward to making this recipe in the future 😌 very well put together and I appreciate the bulking meal recipes!!!
I don't know why I'm watching a bulking recipe as that is the opposite of my weight management needs, but it's riveting.
Tip for the rice, add it after the tomato sauce and broth. My rice burned the bottom because of the direct heat contact at the bottom of the pot
This is a perfectly fine meal for cutting as well for some I would think. Subtract the cornbread obviously and then take out the rice or beans or maybe even both. Plan on trying this one with my wife this weekend. Will probably make a batch after that for myself with some habaneros instead of poblanos as I love spice.
The way you held the spoon.... bro... LOL. Great video though, will definitely be making this for next week. Happy to see a higher calorie meal!
I'm excited to cook this one out! Keep up the great work! Love these high calorie dishes
I love your videos and your cooking is so inspiring. Thank you 👌🏽💗
Thank you 🙏
this looks amazing. i love chili with fries, so im considering doubling the potato content? i hope it works out
Thank you for all your efforts and these nice meals.
thanks for watching 😎
Love these Josh! Please give us more super high-calorie meals like this and Hambulker Helper they are amazing!!!
Great recipe! Would you happen to have InstantPot (pressure cooker) instructions? I don't own a separate large cooking pot and would like to set it and forget it for the cooking phase.
Made this recipe but added the addition of chickpeas and black beans for increased protein and vitamins…can never go wrong with Chili

This seems like a sure fire way to do so
im starting my first bulk next week this is a big request but if you can make more 1000+ calorie meals for cheap i would greatly greatly appreciate it
I've been in the slumps these past few weeks, but these videos always cheer me up. Maybe its the dry humor that lightens the mood for me.
Thanks for the awesome recipes man. Think you can do a carne asada or chicken chipotle burrito bowl meal prep recipe?
Look at that mattress lifting form. Zero back, all leg. Perfect form.
next time zero leg all back
To tweak the recipe for the cornbread I would like to opt for erythritol sweetener or monk fruit sweetener. To avoid sugar spikes or limit sugar intake...I'm not against sugar but if anyone would want to limit sugar intake those options would be the way to go.
Or stevia possibly
just doubled the recipe making this and the chicken fajita bowls for me and my boyfriend trying to get my muscles and weight back up
I don't like peeling potatoes either, but I also don't like the taste of the peel, so I scrub them really well with a clean Dobie teflon-safe pad.
thank you i can feel the gains just by watching
This chili is the shit I've made it multiple times
2:39 Always love seeing a fellow Texan.

Yes🤩 thank you!! One more 1000 cal recipe and ill have a full month of bulk meal prep🔥
Please make more muscle gaining recipes
Love the high calorie meals!
this looks INSANE, making it tomorrow
Great vid! I'm curious though, why does your home look so empty?
I don’t have much stuff
Bulking is just a dream for me
Did you drain and rinse the beans? Or add the beans with the canning liquid?
Can you use dry beans instead of canned beans? Please let me know. Thank you!
Holy, this looks so tasty, thank you for the great food tip
It was amazing and 2 friends of mine have alreadt tried making it aswell!
For a better corn bread (my opinion)
Use buttermilk
Would adding more beef while keep the other ingredients the same ruin the meal or no ?
Does the recipe call for dry rice or uncooked rice?
I think it’s the same thing, I just used regular uncooked rice and came out perfect
I normally workout mid-morning. When should I eat this?
awesome stuff
You’re the best man
Thank you 😎
Did you use the bean juice?
I drained it out
genuinely curious but does he hold the spoon like that for comedic affect or is he special?
special
more cheap high calorie Gainer Meals PLZZZZZ!!!!
I came for the recipe, stayed for the verbal beatdown :D
So you can put it in the freezer ? With sour cream and all the topping ?
Do you have a low-cal chili recipe for those of us that are cutting instead of bulking?
You could prob lower the calorie count by switching to ground turkey or chicken.
you could swap to a leaner beef, cut out the rice, and divide into more servings
More like this!!! We need those calories
Bro this shit slaps bro love it
