What if you’re out of time, no time to cook but need a meal quick and easy? This video looks at several things you can keep in your freezer to allow you to throw together a great tasting meal in less than 3 minutes. The great thing here, is if you have all these things in your freezer, you just combine them in a Tupperware, no cooking required, and off you go.
Well, hello, everybody, nutritionist,Keith Klein once again. I was lecturing inArizona for several days, and when I gotback, I had really no food in mycupboard so to speak,nothing was cooked, didn't feel likegoing to the grocery store, it was a late ona Sunday night, and yet, when I woke upMonday morning, I had a ton of food readyto go and I didn't cook any of it.So, oneof the keys to being successful as youall have learned is cooking and carryingyour food.You know, the day you decide toquit cooking and carrying your food isthe day you decided you want to gain allyour weight back.So, if you master thatskill and you own it, you will have the body that you want for the rest of yourlife.But there are times and there'smoments maybe on a Saturday when youneed a really fast meal and you justdon't have any food made. So, how did Ihave some terrific meals made in under5 minutes and I didn't cook anything?Let me show you some of the skills.
Now,keep in mind that if you were to grillseveral chicken breasts, season them,slice them up, put them in your requiredamount of ounces of good protein in plastic baggies, freezer baggies, and set them in the freezer, you've always got chicken breasts ready to go in the future, right?So, that would be a wise thing to do maybe this weekend.Just when you're cooking chicken, cook extra and put it in single serving packages, because watch what I did.First of all,all the grocery stores today have cooked shrimp, deveined,deshelled, the tails are on them.And do you realize this is a superfast immediate form of protein?Because all you have to do is put your required amount of protein in a bowl, set it under hot water, and in less than 3 minutes, it's ready to eat because it's already cooked.Now, one thing I could do is put shrimp cocktail in a bowl, dip it in shrimp cocktail, put a small potato in the microwave, in 6 minutes, that's doneand you can have an instant meal.Another way that I could use this is, once again,set it in a bowl, run it under hot water for just a couple of minutes, pluck the tails off grab one of those bags have already made salads with all the greens in it, pull it out, put it in a bowl, pull the tails off, set that in the bowl, and put that fat-free ranch dressing that I showed you how to make.And of course you could sprinkle any other frozen vegetables that you the microwave on high for a minute and dump in the cell as well.So, that would be a quick ranch dressing shrimp salad you can make.
But remember, if you had that chicken breast in the freezer, I'm going to show you how you could do a multitude of meals if you already have that ready to go,okay? Now, watch this. I woke up Monday morning, I took aTupperware Bowl just like this.In the grocery stores, they have already cooked steamer bags of rice which I never put in the microwave. I just smash it on the counter, loosen it up, cut it open, and put my required amount of rice in here.And let's say I also maybe want to add a little bit of corn, so maybe I reduce the rice to make room for extra corn, right?So, whatever I do, I mix those two things together, they come out to be my 1 cup and a half of a good card.Then I just take this frozen shrimp right out the bag, I don't put it on the sink under water,dump it in the bowl with the rice.Then I take this chopped frozen broccoli. I happen to like a chop like this because it's in smaller pieces. I really don't care for that big chunk of broccoli, but again, if you don't like broccoli, you could use cauliflower or whatever else you do like, I dumped that in the bowl.Then what I did is I simply drizzled this fat-free low sugar teriyaki sauce over the whole thing, put the lid on it and brought it to work.Everything in here was a hundred% frozen, it all came out of my freezer, I didn't cook any of it.Now, when it came time to eat it, I put it the microwave on high for 3to 4 minutes and I had shrimp teriyaki, andI cook anything, okay?
How you I find out my required amounts of protein/carbs/fat? Thank you for your help!
My best advice is talk with a dietitian to have a proper calculation base on urself. Honestly it's hard to calculate everything but If u want to go that route it's entirely up to you. Easy way is just eye ball everything, eat only until your satisfied not full cus you'll be eating again in 3 hours or 4
Great ideas Keith! Thanks for sharing.

I’m confused. You’re microwaving in plastic, which is a no no, and allthose frozen foods are processed with chemicals. I try not toeat anything in a package but you’re saying it’s okay. I’m 74 years old and trying to lose 10 lbs. Eggs have been a go to but when you do the math, they’re too high in fat so I’ve gone back to egg whites with pico. AND, I hate chicken breast, what a dilemma!
