Make these healthy meals a series please!
Seriously
🥰
100% agree
It already is if you watch the upload stream enough, you'd see the pattern.
"But healthier"
This could start a whole new genre of content! “Is it healthier.” Great stuff Josh!
"But healthier"
Basically everything he does is "but healthier" anyway. Not difficult, given the point of comparison.
Steak gyro 0:57-3:32
Tikka Masala 3:40-5:43
Chicken Alfredo 6:03-8:29
You are doing the lord's work
A like to you my friend
The goat
Thank You👍🏽✅
thanks pookie
Love how Nour explained "When you are on a diet get creative with your food" thats so cute such a positive spin 😇
that statement really inspired me with my cooking
It would be awesome to see you cook a meal through in the 30 minutes. Looking at the list of ingredients and prep, these would probably still take me an hour or more to make.
yeah, who is the audience of these videos? no way homecooks hit those "just 30 minutes" marks.
@@tenylegnincsevem
I feel you. I consider myself a strong homecook and fear the shared times are only very achievable for someone with Joshua's skill level and experience.
Fettuccine Alfredo can be done easily within 30 minutes. And that’s making Alfredo without cauliflower. Mise en place.
I tried the Tikki Masala from this video & the Chipotle bowls from an earlier “Easy” video. Food is delicious. But there’s no way these are even remotely close to 30 minute meals. I’m a home cook. Have been doing meal prep for my family & myself for 15+ years. These are simply not 30 minute recipes.
I'm a seasoned home cook I would say that both the first and last recipe are doable in 30 minutes, if you knew the recipe. The middle one had more complicated breakdown of chicken and fine chopping, so probably not hitting that in 30 probably closer to 45 to an hour.
For those saying you can't do this in 30 minutes, are you talking about ever? Or just the first few times where you need to consult the recipe? If never, maybe look up how some videos on how to cut things more efficiently.
Personally, I like to make extra once or twice a week and freeze half for another night. I started doing this when I was pregnant with my first baby and it is just so convenient to grab a homemade meal from the freezer once or twice a week when you’re tired or busy and you don’t feel like cooking but you also don’t want to spend $50 for crappy unhealthy take-out.
Honestly this is the way to go. Not even frozen, just refrigerated. It’s so convenient when I don’t wanna cook
as a uni student, I would make three to four different freezer friendly dishes, alltogether enough for 15 meals at least (1 plastic container = 2 portions at least), so all I had left to do was prep the sides (rice, potatoes, green beans, wtv) when I was ready to eat. i could basically meal prep 7 or more weeks-worth of meals all at once, just by spending 1 weekend cooking 4 different dishes in big batches. Cuz I would alternate between those frozen meals and various sandwiches or pasta meals I could throw together easily (changing toppings, sauces, and fillings enough not to get bored with them). For the frozen meals, I'm talking boeuf bourgignon, chicken tikka masala, casseroles... I felt like an absolute culinary genius, effortlessly getting delicious and varied homemade meals whenever I was absolutely exhausted with studying and exams, cuz they were ready weeks in advance
i totally do this anyway i make at least 3-4 portions of something when i do and then i can just reheat it and combine it with something in about 10 minutes each evening and it tastes as good, if not better than the first day
I cook all my meals for the week on Sunday, throw some in the freezer for later in the week and the others go in the fridge for the first few days
My mom does this and it always is so good. Especially soups
Joshua… let me tell you something. I love Alfredo sauce. Ever since I was a kid, Alfredo pasta was my favorite. I was so obsessed with it that the first time I had it, I wrote the name of it all over a toy ball I had just so I could remember what to order the next time I went to Olive Garden.
You have changed my life with that pasta recipe. I am not exaggerating. Alfredo is the first dish I learned how to make and felt I had perfected, and you found a way to make it healthy. I just made the pasta and ended up created the most creamy, cheesy, and delicious Alfredo sauce I’ve made to this day. Truly, thank you from the bottom of my heart.
How does a cauliflower Alfredo sauce differ in taste from a regular Alfredo sauce? I've always been curious, but never tried making it.
@@SK-fy8dl I guess it depends on the amount of cauliflower you put in, but I didn't notice much of a difference in taste and I put in about 1/2 head of cauliflower. I think adding the cream and parmesan really helps cover up any cauliflower flavor. I was able to taste it a little at the beginning, but after adding slightly more cream and cheese, I didn't notice the taste at all. The only concrete, noticeable difference is the texture - definitely thicker and more creamy. Definitely worth trying if you'd like a healthier version, I think it's amazing.
I'm not usually one for over sharing but I've just finished my first week of chemotherapy and I won't lie I'm scared of how it's affecting me, but your enthusiasm for the topic helped put my mind at ease. So thank you, you have no idea how much I needed this today
Right there with you brother. I’m 10 weeks in. Stay strong. It’s not always as bad as you hear.
i hope you’re doing well
Please make more of these weeknight dinner videos 🙏 we needs ‘em
The steak gyros were a great hit in our house. The feta sauce will be a staple now! In South Africa we are having a lot of electricity outages so being able to cook something tasty and quick is really helpful thank you!
8 cloves garkic sounds insane did you use that many?
Definitely need more episodes of these 30 minute style meal videos! Please 🙏😎👊
Can we all just say how amazing this man is!! "Don't think of it as a diet, think of it as a moment to be creative with food"!!!!!Love it
i need to eat less, but more
If you wanna lose weight eat less, if you wanna lose fat eat less calories
Less per plate, more in verity
@@willtruitt905 exercise
When I make Asian cuisine, an Asian person swears me out on the subway to work.
@@willtruitt905rong. Ditch the carbs and sugar. Eat till you feel comfortably full. As well as intermittent fasting.
Did the tiki masala for my wife and I and I have to say that that it is fantastic. I have made other diet meals from anabolic cook books and this has taken over my kitchen by choosing to meal prep it every time. Thank you for helping us out, man! Also, if you guys want “more food” but not as much calories, just throw in some veggies Sautéed on a pan with cooking spray. More volumn, but not as many calories. For reference: 1 pound of broccoli is 153 calories
1 pound of fries is over 1000
Please do more videos like this! My eight year old saw this and wanted to make all three. She loved each one, veggies and all! They are easy, healthy, and tasty!
Excellent! I have your cookbook and use it often. Weekly. I would buy a cookbook full of your healthy options as I am in need of getting ripped, but love food.
Perfect timing Josh! Needed some healthy quick recipes… will be making these this week!
Nothing healthy about low fat and eating pasta and rice. Grains spike your blood sugar and hold water on your body. Making you fatter.
Quick until it’s time to clean the 47 dishes Lmaoo
Quick until you have none of this stuff need in your house lol. Oh and no fucking way are you making any of this under 30 mins lol
@@chrispeterson1247 You must not cook much at all then if you really can't make these meals under 30 minutes lol
@@26Sakura26 lol! Mate I I started my chefs apprenticeship in 1998 you probably weren’t even alive then 😂😂😂😂😂
2:14 i appreciate the confidence that you put in me assuming all that chopping will take 5 min and not two hours..
😂😂🤣🤣🤣
That one time estimation was the biggest bs of them all :D I like the recipes, but I'm coming here confident that everything in the video will actually take x3 more time
@@RedLoopster ikr lol that and i also have to take my time to be extra careful not to chop off all my fingers because i have the knife skills of a 2 year old
The average person will not even come close to doing any of this under 30 mins
I'm fast at chopping but this will take a lot longer if you don't want to dirty 324 bowls and clean as you go reusing the same containers
I made the pitas for my family tonight. Was very delicious, and came together quickly. All as advertised. Thank you very much! We all loved it.
The macros on the alfredo dish don't add up. 35p*4 + 24c*4 + 40f*9 = 596cal, but you have it listed at 405 calories. Looks tasty though!
NOW these are the recipes that we def need more of. Keep 'em coming! 🔥
I love how at the end his trainer moves him aside and gives some good advice
Thanks Josh and team! I've been working out in the evenings, so it's nice having quick recipes I can make afterwards.
definitely love this. I used to study aboard and usually had a few lecturers, worked in the library for whole day and had party/dance classes in the evening... that whole day drains me A LOT. I literally have eaten spaghetti with pre-made paste sauce for the whole month...
Hey Josh love this! In New Zealand we have added protein yogurt which I have been using in sauces and for home made flat breads - could be an option for you and others 🙂
Healthy and delicious! I always struggle with ideas of putting some healthy home cooked meals with busy work schedule and kids! Thank you!!
I appreciated this video very much. It’s defeating to sacrifice flavor just to make your meal fit within a certain range of calories. It’s nice to see some options where you can have both in a healthy portion. Keep it up!
I just cooked the tikka masala recipe & it turned out delicious. I will be adding this to my dinner rotations! Thank you Josh for making this video. One thing that slowed me down from 30 minutes is taking the ingredients out of the fridge/cupboard; it does seem like Josh has all of these ready to go and then starts the timer.
RIGHT when I was searching for some quick and easy to make 👏👏👍👍👍PERFECT TIMING
as an athlete who’s constantly cycling bulks and cuts or maintaining but is somehow a food enthusiast, this is awesome.
would love to see more of these lower calorie high protein delicious meals :D
I really do appreciate this video and I like that you had those of us that have to make meals like this in mind. I work at a mine and it’s a shift work job where I work 12.5 hours and generally don’t get more than 5 hours of sleep so as you can imagine it gets very difficult to make food from home in a timely fashion that isn’t just frozen food or other garbage.
One thing I do want to note tho is if you do another of these videos could you show us a little more of your prep process? Maybe have bit more of a loose unedited example of the best quick cooking techniques that you’ve learned? Again thanks for the video!
love it, think every week/month this should be a series.
made the chicken tikka tonight for friends and it was a huge hit! thanks so much, Josh! your recipes are awesome.
Loving these. The only thing I've always wanted was the macros on some of the healthier things you were making. Make this a full series
Please make this a series! This was so helpful!
Would be interesting to see you do this with some veggie options - great vid though!
Totally agree with Noor. Making your food a moment or an event in your life is key. I put on a podcast I've been waiting to listen to, or an album that I love. Currently listening to Renaissance everyday, and Gundogs. If you have kids, especially older kids, give them tasks that make them a part of the meal preparation. Preschoolers and toddlers can pluck leaves off of herbs, and they get a kick out of feeling like they're doing something. Older kids can make a salad from a salad kit, and my teenager makes the rice and pasta, and the protein with supervision.
This is also a great way to help them learn to cook in a positive manner! So many of my friends had parents that cooked everything for them, and can't do anything now that they're adults. Allowing kids to do age appropriate tasks helps build kitchen skills while having fun too!
The gyros are one of the best meals I’ve ever made, unbelievably good!!! Thank you so much!!
It's nice to see more healthy recipes, definitely would love to see more of these!!
Awesome video, Josh. Interested in hearing your coach talk about meals and recipes for people looking to gain weight, if that ever comes up!
Well, it depends on the reason you're not gaining weight. Are you just not eating enough calories (you are barely hungry, so you eat less, maybe you've got digestive issues like pain, constipation, IBS etc. so you avoid eating)? In which case, you need to simply add more calories to your diet that won't weigh like bricks on your digestive system. Fats and proteins are very satieiting, so eat a balance of those with carbs in order to increase your appetite and up your caloric intake. Fiber rich foods are also very satieting for many people, so you might want to go easy on those at first. Also, don't use junk food and sugars for calories. The goal is to gain weight in a healthy way. If your bowels are giving you trouble, you need to fix that first.
If you think your diet and bowels are not the issue, your thyroid might be overactive since that is the gland that regulates our metabolism. This is a condition called hyperthyroidism. It basically makes you burn through your dietary intake too quickly and not store enough, which makes it hard to gain weight. There are other symptoms of hyperthyroidism, so if your lack of weight gain is the only issue, chances are it's not your thyroid and mostly your diet that's not correct.
Overall you want to identify why you are not gaining weight first. Is it your diet, are your bowels giving you trouble when you eat, do you have something causing pain in the stomach like hiatal hernia or frequent acid reflux after eating so you avoid eating, is your thyroid acting up and so on. Chances are you are simply not eating enough quality food and thus not getting enough calories or you are burning too many of them through excercise if you are very active. Aim for 3-4 meals a day depending on how much you can digest, eat whole grains, nuts & seeds, fatty cuts of meat, eggs, starchy veggies like rice and potatoes, add some starchy fruit to your diet likes bananas and apples (don't go too crazy on the sugary stuff). You should start seeing some results within 2-4 weeks.
Hope this helps, from someone that used to be underweight :)
Josh would you ever make a video on basic spices you would want in the kitchen if your getting into cooking? And maybe some basic tools.
As it’s my first year in an apartment, this is super helpful! I always struggle with groceries and various meals.
I appreciate this. Would love to see more veggies included with each meal!
Absolutely LOVING the healthy recipes too! If there’s ANYONE on the planet I trust to balance healthy and delicious, it’s you!! Keep ‘em coming!
Please keep these healthy recipes coming
Awesome! I made the flank steak one this evening and followed the recipe and it was off the charts good. My 13 year old son told me I knocked it out of the park. Thank you for the tips and videos you share!
This couldn’t have come at a better time I’ve just started with a PT 🙌🏻
I was making a new dish tonight, and it occurred to me that new recipes often take me longer even if a lot of the steps are familiar -chopping veggies I cook a lot, stir-frying, making rice or something on the side, pressing tofu, etc. I think part of it is having to consciously think about what to do next and what the best order to proceed is and not having my multitasking optimized the way I do with my go-to meals. That got me thinking maybe a video about optimizing work flow and multitasking would be helpful?
On a side note, I love how Nour isn't the kind of trainer who acts like you have to overhaul everything enjoyable in food to be fit. You still cooked white rice, you added half and half to the curry, and he never once acted like that was some sort of grudging concession - food can and should taste good and be creative even when losing weight!
You’re really trying to eat healthy. This is crazy! I’m just glad I can continue watching you make delicious foods… that are meal-prep friendly ❤
Greetings from the UK 🇬🇧 Hello Josh . I love the way you rinse the onions in cold water . Now I always eat them that way . Thank you 🙏
That last quote hit hard. Don't look at it as a diet look at it as an opportunity to get creative with your food. I needed that!
The realistic quick recipes like this are the way josh pls more
Realistic😂
Yes, ofcourse if you have prepaired chicken stock not to mention he has aleeady everything measured so he just mix it so normal person can make it hour or more
These are realistic, but not realistically 30 minutes. The tikka masala would take most pretty good home cooks easily well over an hour.
@@mia33819 Just because you are slow doesn't mean everyone is Miska
I love your videos Joshua! thank you for the motivation to cook again and be happy with what I make :3
We definitely need more of these Healthy meals please!! 😍🤤🙌🏻
Wait that diet advice is PERFECT!! I had WLS and I got so heavily into cooking since then (bc I can't eat very much) and I've learned so much about cooking bc of it
That garlic sauce I am stealing! That would be great as a substitute for white gravy! This is a recipe that I am going to experiment with! Thanks!
"Don't think of it as a diet. Think of it as a moment to get creative with your food."
Words to live by.
I love this. I’ve got a goal to loose 30lbs by my 30th birthday and I have more than enough time to do it. My problem is, I LOVE TO COOK! I find that when I am focusing on eating well, I loose some of the comfort and flare to my cooking. This brings it back!!! Keep it coming!
These look great, going to try them this week.
Made the Tikka Marsala recipe, got to the end and realized I didn’t have any half&half, subbed it with some Greek yogurt and WOW! Macros are even better and sooo good!
How much Greek yogurt? One cup? I might try! Did it with half and half but I don’t think I reduced it properly.. that or over “splashed” water 😅
Joshua please make a video with techniques to use the stainless steel and tips to keep the pans like you do, because all your pans look like new always. Thanks for all your series and good luck getting shreded.
Lynja teach about them in her shorts, if Iam not mistaken
Pretty much every conversation on keeping stainless steel pretty that I've seen/heard has said that Barkeeper's Friend is your fr... companion.
Or probably an offbrand equivalent if it exists. Not trying to rep the brand, but the product is fantastic for cleaning stainless.
I agree with Barkeepers Friend for sterling. My pans all look like his because I use it on them.
Yep, saving this video. Great weekday meals (some can even be prepped ahead of time). Thanks for sharing!
Perfect! I've just recently starting building my body and these recipes look absolutely phenomenal! I have such an odd aversion to some of the more typical body building diets because it's all the same texture and flavor so this is a dream! I look forward to more, and if you put out a healthy/bodybuilding kind of cookbook I'll be the first in line ❤️ Thanks White Man.
You’re the best Joshua!
I would love a time study on doing the dishes after making these meals.
Wow, made the 2th and 3th and they are really awesome! Thank you very much. Please more!
I appreciate this so much more after the first week of work
The fact that you continue getting creative keeps me coming back!
I’ve been needing this considering my list of dishes I can cook has been slim for a while, so thanks.
That said, what was the name of that adorable dog at the end?
I just made your original Tikka Masala recipe. Wish this video was out last week, I would've used half & half instead of cream.
Counting calories lost me 30 lbs since November, will give some of these recipes a shot.
Heavy cream is actually healthier than half and half. Look at the sugar half and half contains. It is much higher.
Also ditch the rice and noodles
@@melanieortiz712 you can still lose weight eating foods like that as long as you expend more calories than you consume
Half n half actually doesn't do much difference calorie wise for you. Just have less sauce and you are good.
I’ve been skipping heavy cream/half and half and using yogurt in my tikka masala and it comes out great. Much healthier than either of those options
Really enjoyed this! Hope you make more videos/ or make it a series
Made the steak gyros tonight. It was a hit! My son liked the veggies. Usually he won’t eat cucumbers. Yay!
Finally your helping me loose weight instead of gaining it. Cough. You are the reason I bake bread weekly. In all seriousness, it is nice to see healthy recipes that are not "bro food" i.e. chicken and broccoli or full of sugar free/fat free ingredients.
When you lose weight your pants get loose.
The pita can also be used for the tikka masala if there will be leftovers 😍
you can also use Nan
@@krishnasanyal7 much better!!
I would love to see more videos like this!
I loved this video!!!! I'm going to try out all three recipes next week!!
I‘m amazed how Josh just used Chicken breats instead of thighs without loosing a breath about it.
Lost me at that point. Thighs > breast.
This should be a new cookbook idea ♥️ thanks Josh for helping me stay on track 👏♥️
Thank you, Joshua, for the gyro white sauce recipe. It looks good and yummy!!
Thank you! These are really good recipe's
I want to see the average joe that can slice up a cucumber, red onion, bunch of oregano, bunch of parsley and a jalapeno in just five minutes. Not to mention the cleaning of the cutting board, knife etc afterwards.
The recipes seem good but I seriously want to see an uncut video of you doing these in the times that you mentioned and see how much of a rush you'll be in to complete these.
First off, great video, recipes look delish. However, being an *honest* and *humble* home cook/working mom myself, I don't think it's fair to call these 30-minute meals. The chopping/slicing/dicing...prep work...if you timed that it would def be longer than 30 mins. Otherwise, aside from that, I still absolutely loved this video and I look forward to utilizing some of these techniques!
i like these easy but healthy meal videos. btw. i watched some of your newer videos first and your improvement in clearness of pronounciation is astounding.
Meal prepping these! Loved this episode. Thank you!
Something different. I like it
Need your help. I’ve now failed 12 times trying to replicate the Curry Buns I could buy at the Japanese bakery in the East village 20 years ago. They’re yeast buns filled with a paste like consistency, with panko on the outside, deep fried, and shaped like little American footballs. Please, please help.
I made the chicken Alfredo tonight and it was a big hit with my husband and my kids. Kids had no idea there was a cauliflower anywhere near this meal. I reserved the pasta water to make the sauce the right consistency and a little more just before serving because the pasta absorbed some of the liquid after draining. I topped this with bacon salt which I thought was a fantastic addition. The bacon salt added a pancetta-esque taste without calories. Sautéed broccoli and zucchini and topped with shredded manchego. Our family of 4 ate their fill and there were still a bunch of leftovers. I'll make this again. Oh and one last thing, if you are sensitive to a lot of garlic, you may want to roast or cook the garlic a bit to cut the spiciness of it. I thought it was going to be "too much" but once it was tossed around in pasta it was perfect for my taste.
I think I've finally figured out what it is that's always subtly bothered me about the whole "30 minute meal" concept: They never account for cleanup time.
Yeah. It also doesn't factor in planning time; and tbh this are 30 minutes of constant in-kitchen action, not 5 minutes to start a process and coming back after 30 minutes.
After a workday idk if many people want to spend 30 minutes filled with constantly doing stuff in the kitchen.
You can clean up while the meat is cooking for example. When I'm an omelette, I can put the bowl I used for the eggs in the sink and clean while it fries. There's no good excuse, be proactive.
To me, it's not a 30 minute week night recipe unless 90% of the cleanup is done within that 30 minutes. With 3 pans and a blender, that's taking an extra 10-15 minutes.
Josh, where do you get your boneless chickens? I always find them with bones in when I strangle them…
Honestly, Noor's advice at the end is actual gold!
Got your cook book for Christmas, excited to start following along
josh i really love your videos.
can you please make high calorie meals for people who are underweight like me and trying to bulk. Please.
EAT MCDONALDS lmao
It’s as simple as eating A LOT of decent/calorically dense foods - proteins, peanut butter,avocado, olive oil, etc. Sure you can eat McDonalds, but if you’re trying to gain muscle and not fat, I’d avoid it. There’s no dieting secret to gaining weight, just eat 👍🏼
How about you make the three meals presented in this video but instead of the low fat yoghurt and the half-and-half, you use full fat yoghurt and heavy cream?
@@phonkey that’s a good idea thank you
Literally my problem. Can't seem to gain weight no matter what I eat.
I feel like these are only 30 min if you prepped everything the day before
Just found this guys channel, it’s my new favorite. good stuff josh
I love your trainer's quote! Next time I will think about being more creative with my food
Love this as I'm trying to lose weight/firm up too. More weeknight recipes please or even healthy meal prep for the week. Maybe have your trainer test the food but also one of the usual guys to test too to confirm it tastes good despite being healthier.
So did you get shredded?
I already meal planned for next week but most definitely, making this the week after next!
Superb. Realistic, fast and practical.
How are any of these meals healthy???
That's the kind of stuff I used to eat wondering why I couldn't get a 6 pack no matter how hard I tried and had constant health problems like pain or infections.
Today I have a 6 pack at 39 without even trying simply by actually eating healthy. I also didn't catch a single cold in over 4 years.
What's the "secret"?
Eat whole foods that were grown/raised as they should be.
What is the biggest problem with all 3 meals here:
1-they all use processed foods as their main source of carb (white flour products with the pasta or the pita instead of using whole-wheat or white rice instead of using brown rice or oatmeal)
2-they don't have a significant source of potassium which would require the presence of vegetables such as lettuce, spinach, cauliflower, brussel sprouts etc..
3-they don't have significant sources of omega 3 fatty acids which are essential to fighting inflammation and health in general ( which you'd get primarily from seafood like salmon, sardines or mussels...)
4-there is 0 emphasis on where the meat came from while that's absolutely essential in determining whether that meat is healthy or not: animals raised in pastures and fed their natural food preference (like grass for cows) have a way better omega 3 to omega 6 ratio and way anti-inflammatory compounds like phytonutrients
5-the emphasis is on macros whereas macros are only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to health: micronutrients such as potassium, magnesium, omega 3s, phytonutrients are absolutely essential to health and you simply won't get enough of those by eating processed carbs or your regular chicken from the grocery store that was raised in a barn without room to move
6-Those meals are ridiculously low in fat as if fat was the enemy of health: that's absolutely ridiculous. Just look at the average European who eats butter, olive oil and cheese in significant quantities (like me) and are fit; processed oils are the enemy like vegetable oil (corn oil, peanut oil, canola, grapeseed...) because they are highly processed void of any nutrient and extremely high in omega 6s making them highly inflammatory; as a result of preparing low fat meals you make those meals not nearly as good as they could be and also deprive the body of a very important source of fuel with many benefits
