Back in the mid ‘80’s, in nursing school, we had to come up with a meal plan for a family of four for a week with just $20. From what I remember, they were eating a lot of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and pasta. There were more healthy foods but those stuck in my memory. It really takes a lot of thought. You did a great job with this, Derek.
It does take a lot of thought and planning. That is an interesting lesson you had in school. A 4 day meal prep with $20 CAD would be hard and lack variety for sure. Thanks for the comment!
When I was in high school in the sixties one home economics assignment was three meals a day for a family of four. We could spend no more than $1.00 per person per day. It was a challenge but doable.
Thank you for all you do, totally enjoy your video. 70 yr. old, no meat, fish or cheese going on 3 yrs. Because of you I eat tofu using your different marinades, cook my own chickpeas, beans, plant based pastas, made my own tomato sauces. I would love to actually buy a book form of your recipes, not crazy over e-books, love leaving through the pages. Again, a big thank you, your a great inspiration even for a 70 yr. old.
Thank you so much! I appreciate it. I don't have any books right now, but hopefully one day I will be able to create physical copies!
That's so cool!
I hope so, but I appreciate all you do 👍❤️😊
I too would love a physical copy of your cookbook. I did buy your ebook though and have enjoyed the recipes I’ve tried so far! 😋
You're amazing! Just an idea... I bought the e-book and then printed it out and put it in a binder. I love being able to grab it off the shelf when I need a good Simnett recipe!
If you're gonna add water to your tofu and chickpea mixture, you might as well omit the straining of the chickpeas. The liquid is packed with additional protein. It's called aquafaba, it is usually talked about when baking, but it works great in food too. When cooking something that needs water or any liquid that will get reduced anyway, I'll always add the chickpea liquid.
hm yh should consider thaqt, thx
Me too. Same with kidney beans.
I dont need to budget for food, i have the money, but figuring out what i should make or buy at the store is what i struggle with so i appreciate these videos a lot. Before i started watching you i was so lost. Im not even vegan but i want to eat healthy.
Thanks Derek, I’m loving the meal prep vlogs. Just so you know, I’m a little 57 year old woman building more muscle 😊
Same! 💚
That's awesome!!
Vegan? No thanks I'm a REAL MAN. have fun with your girly snacks.
@@thereal415erspeaking of “real man” have you ever watched the documentary “Game changers”? Might redefine that comment for you… 🤓😮 and obviously if you’ve watched his videos before you’ll see it’s pretty clear Derek IS a real man…
@@thereal415eryou are so cool dude..
Hey 🙋🏽♀️ I was meal prepping for my mom and froze on plates, bowls etc which made everything into a solid brick or bowl shape/form then popped in ziplock bags so she could get one portion out at a time then into glass to microwave. She’s 90
That's a great idea!
Great idea!
To add more greens I’d recommend frozen spinach! It’s much more affordable than fresh and greens are an essential part of our diet. Very thoughtful video!
Nice! Great tip. 👊
I appreciate these nutrient breakdown videos, and I'm grateful you turned me on to Cronometer. During my "no work" phase of the pandemic, buying frozen veggies, dry lentils, and adding fresh red peppers, onions, mushrooms, and nutritional yeast helped me get through with a tiny budget. Thanks for the food inspiration Derek.
Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed the video!
I use powdered seaweed for a salt sub. It gives me all the iodine I need. Super easy to make take a sheet of nori and pulverize it.
Great video! Could you do another one for a meal plan that is lower in calories? 2400 calories is too much for me to eat every day, but I LOVE that you use up almost all of the ingredients you buy, your instructions were easy to follow, and they look delicious.
Thanks for making the videos!
I know how time consuming this must be to plan and put together for all of us - great job and we appreciate you! 🙌🏼
This is great! Im still transitioning to a vegan lifestyle and looking for high protein meal prep has been the biggest struggle. I’ve gotta find more content like this! Thank you!
You're welcome! Thanks for watching.
These meal preparations help out so much! With rising food prices, stretch them out however you can.👍👍
I meal prep every week....3 weeks on Sunday = no cooking for the rest of the week! Definitely worth it. The amount of sodium in your prep is far less than if one were eating take out, salty snacks, etc. I am gratefully able to afford to add greens, nuts, seeds to add to the nutritional value, but again, these meals are far more nutritionally dense than the standard north american diet. Well done!!
Two pieces of feedback since you asked! Get yourself a wider variety of frozen veggies (California blend, frozen corn, frozen spinach...). And how about some handheld foods/meals on the go for folks who are not sitting at a table for breakfast & lunch?
Thank you for the suggestions! I am embarrassed to admit I forgot to buy frozen veggies for this meal prep lol! I made it work but agree frozen veggies are where it's at and would have made the meals more nutritious. I will try to come up with my handheld meals. That's a great idea! Thank you.
@@Simnettnutrition Thanks! I've been eating sweet potato wedges and little baked tofu rectangles as well as fruit while I drive between appointments at work...need some new ideas and I'm about tapped out on hummus sandwiches, 😆
Your foods look like they taste awesome. Some days I basically eat black beans and bread with kale, carrots, and chia seeds and bananas. Cost isn't over $3.50 with nutrients checked in cronometer and almonds added for vitamin E optionally.
Gonna try putting lentils in the sauce having it with brown rice pasta.
I was also thinking that does sound like a very good idea. I don't typically eat tomato sauce but I do sometimes.
Please do more videos like this one! I'm so broke right now and my nutrition is suffering 😭
Thank you so much for making this video, great timing for me! I have a knee surgery coming up next Friday. I planned to meal prep so I don't have to cook or order take-out. These low cost, healthy, and tasty looking meals have relieved a lot of stress for me. These meals all these like great ideas! Thank you so much for your hard work making this video!
I hope your knee surgery went fine or will! Get well soon.
5 days post op. Got stitches taken out today. Feeling good.
@@RiDankulousit went well! Thanks
@@AladdinJaber Glad to hear!
. . . wow, I love how you started your vid with the most "difficult" yet you made it look so easy with your clear instructs & I especially loved the closeups...God Bless...🥰🥰🥰
Thank you!
Wow this is great! Could have used this a few weeks ago in between jobs 😅 I’m still going to try these everything looked delicious
You can cook rice the same as you cook pasta, then toss out water with a good portion of the heavy metals all rice carries with it. It cooks just fine. These recipes rock.
I checked out the exchange rate & $45 us would equate to $70 Australian,but that amount of food & what you purchased would cost aboit $90 here in Australia.i find that i need fo shop at a few different stores to get the best value for what i usually purchase.i toowould have loved to see more raw fresh fruit n veg,but thats how it goes .you did a great job,great idea doing meal plans & budget vids.great vid.💚🌿✨
Best to cook brown rice in loads of water and then rinse with boiling water at the end. Rice is especially susceptible to taking up arsenic from its growing environment and this process reduces the risk. I believe Dr Greger has examined this at some length. Another great video though.
Yea he does, great point. Cool it like pasta. Thanks for the reminder.
Started getting going on the bodybuilding journey and Derek’s advice and wisdom has been instrumental. 👊🏽🦇💜
We may be due a workout split(s) update, Derek! I think it's been a while. Great vid!
I like how you say pass ta 😊 my comment is that is get tired of that breakfast by day 2 cause there is so much of it. I don't think i could eat 2 helpings daily!
It is the Canadian way of saying pasta haha!
With our high inflation with crazy high food and gas! You’re prep meal grow is really helpful for me ! I learn so much from you Derek! Me still being a newbie’ on buying my plant based foods! 🙏 thank you! I need all utility ho!! I look forward for your videos!! I’ve been making fruit smoothies ! Oatmeal with walnuts! Chia seeds! Protein powder!! Tofu raps!
Thank you so much!
Frittata looks awesome. I will most definitely be trying it. Very nice!!
Your channel is a life saver ❤❤❤ please never stop making these videos
This is great, I always struggle to get enough iron and to put together an actual mealplan, thank you so much!!!
I really like the breakfast recipe. Super cool.
Thank you so much!
Nice job!
I'm more into making meals that last at least two days. Most of the time i dont have refrigerator space to prep anyway.
DELISH ON THE TUFU BREAKFAST. MADE IT WOW.
It's nice to hear a 2nd opinion! I bet it's very tasty and filling but for recipes I just use 3-4 ingredients tops and minimal steps for the ones I choose. I think it might be possible to convert some of this into simpler versions.
Video idea- how to shop when getting groceries!! I.e. most the good stuff (vege, meat. dairy) are on the edges/opposing ends what other stuff can you get, what's some good quick cook stuff you can grab and have at home for a couple days and still be tasty AF?
Absolutely loving these meal prep videos!
Exactly what I need for the next few months, thanks for another great video 👍
You're welcome! Enjoy :)
Derick, I appreciate the amount of work you put into your videos. I really like seeing you enjoy the taste of your food. Please don’t cut that out of the video. Thanks!
Love these type of videos!! Thank You!!
This was excellent Derek. Thank you!
Wow thanks. I need to do more meal preps.
You’re amazing dude! With macros and everything 🙏. I definitely try to stick to all organic in general, especially when homecooking and I know you do too. But it can be so difficult, i understand budgets because everything is so expensive now a days like you said😭.
I really appreciate this video, your meal prep videos and all your videos.
Best vegan channel 💪🏻
Thanks so much. What a nice comment. I appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment. I’ll make sure to keep it up! On my way now to pic up a new mic, a few ppl have said I could improve the audio quality.
Absolutely amazing job on this. Thank you, Derek!
YUUUUUMMMM this looks amazing Derek!!!
Removing meat and dairy from your diet is already a big savings.

Would be great if there could be a recipe book full of budget friendly vegan recipes so those struggling from financial hardship could eat nutritionally and their health, all aspects of their life could improve ❤
Yes I agree! I imagine there are some books out there like that but I think my next ebook should be easy vegan meal prep recipes. What do you think?

Excited to try the tofu frittata!!!
Great video! Thank you for all the effort. That breakfast looks amazing!!! I'm always looking for savory high protein breakfast/lunch. I will definitely be trying out that recipe and the pad Thai, adding seitan to make it more protein packed.
