I’m a mum-of-one and prepped enough meals so I don’t have to cook for two MONTHS… it only took 6 hours too
A SAVVY mum has revealed how she was able to prepare enough meals for her family to last them two whole months
The mum revealed she and her partner prep enough meals to last them two months in just one day.
Brandy shared her meal prep day in a TikTok video online.
She said: “We won’t be cooking dinner for the next two months and it’s not gonna be because we’re eating out. We prepped 47 meals in one day.”
Brandy explained the meal prepping took six hours.
“It took six hours and the kitchen looked like a tornado came through it. But that’s normally how it looks when I’m cooking anyways my husband complains about that.”
“His meals are large and although we only make only 47 of them, they’ll probably last us two whole months .”
Brandy explained meal prepping and crock pot meals are now a part of her family life.
“This isn’t our first time prepping meals before our daughter was born we decided to prep 18 and loved having those ready every single day.”
All the meals Brandy preps go straight into the freezer until she needs them.
“These are freezer crock pot meals, they are meals that you put all the ingredients in a bag raw and freeze it.”
“Then when you’re ready to cook it you leave it out the night before and put it in the crock pot the next morning or you can use and spot the day of.”

Brandy spent £300 on her meal prepping ingredients.
“To save time prepping we decided to use Walmart pick up, we spent about $375 for all the ingredients for the 47 meals.”
“That did included some other grocery items that were not part of the meal prepping but we also used meat that we already had in the freezer.”
The mum reckons that equates to about £6.30 per meal and £1.50 per person.
“That means that each meal cost about $8 and if you’re feeding four people per meal that’s $2 per person.”
Brandy’s meal prepping went viral with over 3.1 million views.
One user said: “My toxic trait is that I would do all this prep and then still order takeout.”
Another said: “Lol, I spend six hours meal prepping for one week for me and my husband, this is wildly impressive.”
A third viewer added: “Ooooh this before a child is born makes so much sense.”
