Dang. I remember following this account and Josh was living without furniture. Now he's buying cheese from Whole Foods. Stay winning, King! 😤🙌
Hahahaha I have a couch and no longer sleep on a twin mattress on the floor now too
😂
honestly i haven't seen the elsa bowl in a while, so . . .
Woo!!! Go Josh!
Eating 1K kcal is not difficult, doing so with the right macros & having some fiber is, and you just nailed it. As always, great recipe! Thanks for sharing!
thank you 😎
I have to keep two athletic teenage boys fed. I appreciate every single one of your high-calorie meal preps.
Love that 😎
based
God bless you for taking good care of your boys
Josh! We need EVEN MORE of these BIG BOY 1000 Calorie Meals, these are SO GOATED. I always have them on rotation. I literally just made another batch of the Chicken Burrito Bowl.
Bro no way that’s what I do
I'm on my first bulk. Since I found your channel I use your recipes to meal prep every week! Tasty, energetic, clean and super easy to cook! Just a great help dude
Glad to be of service 😎
JOSH could you make a playlist of all the bulking meal prep videos because that would be awesome, love the content.
Thank you for looking out for the lads 🙏🏿
Yeah I’ll get on that
@@TheMealPrepManual 🐐
I don't get it. You eat the same kinds of macros whether you're cutting or bulking, just less than your maintenance for cutting, and more than your maintenance for bulking. You still want to eat grilled chicken whether you cut or bulk. Vegetables whether you cut or bulk. Fruit if you cut or bulk. All of Josh's recipes also work for bulking, just fit an additional meal a day or divide one of the 5 portion meals into 4 containers instead to effectively get 25% more calories per dish, you'll just cook a bit more often.
As he stated, this video could easily just be 500 calorie mac and cheese meal prep, just divide it into 10 containers instead of 5. This isn't rocket science. If you can add/subtract/multiply/divide to calculate your daily calorie intake then you have the math skills to comprehend this too.
Josh, I have made many of your recipes, and at times make variations because I prep for food convenience and not dietary reasons. THIS one, was awesome. And my two year old daughter agreed without any arguments over eating veggies. It also froze very well and I will be making this one again soon. Thank you for all of your videos.🤙🏻
Thanks for updating that it freezes well. I’m going to use regular or protein pasta for mine.
Whoop whoop that’s what I like to hear 🫡
protein pasta huge hack here might yield even more gains, could even half the portions for 10 meals and freeze
love the fact that when you say fahrenheit, you also mention celsius, also see you do that with other measurements for everyone to understand and not to google what is what.
Thank you for the recipe brother! You are actually the one who got me into meal prepping, and made all the difference in my fitness goals! I've been using your dishes for both bulking and cutting, and this one is going next week for sure! Much love!
You are a miracle for hardgainer guys who are trying to put on muscle! Thank you sir!
Yes another high calorie meal!!!! Thank you for these
We ask for big boy recipes and Josh delivers, can't wait to try this one!😍
As someone that hates cooking, but needs big boy meals just to survive (super high metabolism) I thank you from the bottom of my stomach. I'm going to be making this on the weekend for my dinners for the week.... and subscribing for the next recipe.
Like and subscribe.
I hardly eat any vegetables, just made this and it absolutely smacks! Can’t wait to try other recipes!
LOVE this recipe and you are extremely entertaining ❤ Thank you
Just started a cut, but this is definitely getting bookmarked for my next bulk. Thanks Josh!
bro we need more recipes. ive officially made every single one of your high calorie meal preps now
More high calorie meals yewww!
Loving all the meals I’ve made thank you king.
MORE BIG BOYY MEALS!!!!!!!!!!!!! I absolutely loved the previous mac n cheese recipe but this one just takes it on another level
I made this yesterday and it turned out great. I used whole wheat penne pasta with it for a little extra fiber. Thanks for the time spent researching these yummy big boy meals.
been waiting for this one 👏🏻
Another recipe already?? You are the best Josh
This channel is the one thing I’ve been searching for my whole life 😩
Damn man I am loving these big boy 1000 calorie meals. Please do more!!!.
Really interesting that you blended the veggies with the cheese. Such a simple and effective idea but one that my non-cooking mind just would have never thought about.
I am not trying to bulk up or build muscle but here I am, and now I'm subscribed
Hello, thank you for your recipes ! Would love more bulking meal prep !
Love from France ❤️
This video is amazing. You gained a new subscriber
Great video!
For those who can't stand cooked cauliflower cuz it tastes like literal farts - use yellow potatoes. Also - I can't eat dairy, so instead of cow milk and cottage chz and cheese shreds for sauce, I just use potato water, veggie broth (or plant milk), 2-4 TBS of tahini (or soaked cashews). I suppose you could use a block of plant based cheese to shred - but I just do not bother due to expense and using cashews makes is SO yummy. The sauce is GOOD when you can not use dairy. Enjoy!
PS: add acidic element to the sauce as well - either lemon juice or apple cider vinegar (1-2 TBS) and I like spices so I add smoked paprika, garlic powder & onion powder in addition to the salt and pepper.
I'm excited for this revamp veggie blender mac. I made the old version a bunch.
Made this tonight for dinner for my family. The flavour of the sauce was very nice with the roasted vegetables, and the chicken thighs were so moist and delicious. I noticed immediately how filling this is, after a few spoon fulls I was already feeling full. One thing that I might do differently for my own liking is use a different pasta noodle besides macaroni. Overall it was very delicious and satiating, thank you for the recipe! Still have half a pan in the fridge as leftovers lol
I LOVE The BB recipes. Been maining the meatballs and wedges for the past 4 months. Cheers Josh.
Glad you like them!
This looks fabulous. For a regular family idea
Thank you Josh!
I appreciate the big boy size. I'm a 6'0" 153lb lanklet trying to get back to a lean 172 and I have a lot of trouble getting in the cals with healthy meals. Liked and subscribed!
I liked your hidden veggie mac so I'm excited to try this. I like doin pastas in oven safe meal prep containers then baking em in the toaster oven with some fresh cheese grated overtop
Thank you, I burn over 2000 calories a day as maintenance and I have a very active job so having these high calorie meals is a must for me
Wow! More please!!!
Just made it and it’s really good!
This looks absolutely delicious. And I love the hilariously savage commentary.
Respect for making it five servings for the school week
Just made this and its absolutely fire. I added a little more cheese and starch to thicken it up more.
Thanks for the Video.
It’ll help me trough my gym time :)
YEEEEES love to see more Big Boy preps ! Thank you !
Whats big boy prep? Is it like diabetes boy prep?
@@arnold6641 you wouldn't understand
@@DeepBluee- Why not? Is there something wrong with me? Am i too healthy? please
I like that vegetables were included in this recipe. A lot of people focus on protein and don't get enough of a variety of fruits and vegetables. I might have added some nutritional yeast for more extra nutrition and more cheesy flavor without adding the saturated fat, but overall I think it's a great recipe that I'm definitely going to give a try.
I can't wait to make this.
Legendary per usual
I knew I should have waited like an hour before going to the store 😂 can’t wait to make this for meals next week!
Same😭
@@mannyroman8371 literally got the notification pulling up to my house from the store 😂
Yah fr. Im making the chipotle one so not mad
Favourite CZcamsr, so funny 😂
Finally you’re back to the bulking meal prep
These have been a lifesaver. I used to be skinny as hell and tall and struggle eating more than 2k calories per day but have using these meals I’ve been eating 3k calories per day and have put on 40lbs of muscle the past 8 months and finally am sitting at 170lbs, 6’3” and don’t look like I’m one illness away from death. Obv combined with working out regularly but damn that progress was FAST thanks to these
Just make it. Its so delicious ☺️ but I have make 6 portions to have less calories. Thanks for another great recipe 😉
Fantastic!
Hell yeah I just made this but substituted pre cooked chicken sausages instead of thighs. So tasty, I love the flavor of the veggies in the sauce
This stuff is filling! I used whole grain macaroni in mine
lets gooo, thanks man
I was about the make a recovery drink for the workout I just finished but had to watch Josh. I'm gonna make this but since I'm in a cut I'm going to have twice the servings! And give I'm been a cry-ass and lazy-ass lately this will help me with my meal prep! Thanks Josh.
Btw is your boss still beating you? 😂
High calorie are the best, more please
Thanks! This is going to help me to eat properly while doing 2mad. I’m probably going to substitute the milk for cream.
I tried the other high protein mac n cheese and it was delicious. I need to make it again.
Dude, this recipe is about as legendary as it gets. I cant make mac and cheese without throwing some bacon in it but this recipe is like 99% as good as a traditionally rich baked mac and cheese recipe is. (And if you haven’t had a good baked mac and cheese, then you should make one for yourself and you’ll know). This is by far, one of the tastiest, macro supercharged, New Year’s resolutionist friendly recipes I have ever had. Mr. Cortis, you are Gods gift to CZcams. Amongst the swathe of shitty meal prep channels there is, you sir are a diamond in the rough.
thank you for your support 😎
Dude, I've been here since like 50k subs and just saw that you have almost 800k now!! Fucken a, top job my dude! Also the recipe looks delicious, I need to try it out
This turned out great. The taste was reminiscent of a fancy pimento cheese. Would cook again.
NEED MORE BIG BOY MEALS!
Liked & subscribed!! Also wanted to comment… I didn’t even realize the usual roux mixture (butter & flour) was missing until you said it….no heavy cream, half & half or evaporated milk either! I’m looking forward to trying this!! Enjoyed your humor too but don’t give up on Cuisinart. You win some, you lose some!! 😂
MORE BIG BOY MEALS YAY
As someone with Celiac trying to get in shape, I appreciate all the gluten-free recipes!
Just what im after!
Oh yeah, this is gonna be my go to meal when I start bulking
Farts bouta be detrimental but gains gonna be exquisite
Please keep up the high calorie meals, thanks a lot!
Bro this is a game changer
Still great for cutting as I only eat 2ish meals a day! Thanks.
MORE BIG BOY!
I love your sense of humor! I also hate Cuisine Art!
DAYUM! I blinked and you blew up! It seems like just last week you were pulling the peanut butter and jelly oatmeal out of the oven like "Look at that lil bastard, look how beautiful that is." Nice job!
I made this last night without the chicken. Absolute whammy of a dish. My vegetable hating brother even tried it.
Need more of these!
This looks tasty, healthy and I don’t need to bulk up but I’m going to try it. Maybe halve the recipe.
I eat a very high protein lower calorie diet, just the way it’s been for me, it’s what I like. These meals (specifically the bbq meatball one) have been perfect for my system. I eat 4 eggs any way in the morning, just depends on what I’m feeling. A light lunch, carrots and celery with some ranch or a salad, and then I eat a large meal at the end of my day.
320 calories for the eggs, 300ish for the salad, 900-1000 for dinner. Normally sticking to water. It’s been pretty helpful honestly. I just wanted to say all this just in case you’re not trying to bulk up, I’m already pretty built being 6’3” 225lbs. You can just enjoy a big meal guilt free guys. Love y’all.
MORE BIG BOY MEALS!!!!
If you're at costco anyway you can get a rotisserie chicken and debone/shred it for this recipe which would simplify the chicken step
I’m making it tomorrow but I need another one man!
Josh, where you buy this amazing food containers?
YES
Need. More. Big. Boy. Meals. PLEASE! 😊😇😊😇😊😇
I'll definitely halve this recipe and give it a shot next week, thanks for the recipe. I know you're not much of a veggie guy but do you have any medium calorie (like 600 calories) vegetarian meals that are high in protein? Trying to do one week a month of veggie diet but I'm struggling to hit my protein goals
Yes, yess, yessss... More, morreee, MOORREEE, BULKing recipes!! 🤪 Thank you for the awesome recipes good sir!
Cuisinart baby!
How would you say it tastes paired with fish insted of chican and can you use skim milk insted of whole?
As someone who hates most vegetables this recipe is actually very good.
Dude I love your videos. But man you are hilarious
MORE BIG BOY MEALS MORE GAINS LETS GO
Alright bye!
Absolute legend, none of that like, subscribe, hit the bell icon. Love this channel. I think I’ll be trying this but maybe with some Gruyère and cheddar mix, or I’ll stay cheap and buy some cheap cheddar.
🫡🫡
thanks dude
would love the lower calorie version of this recipe!
Wow I might actually find a use for the 72oz blender I stupidly bought for making 24oz smoothies.
lol
More 1000 cal recipes please! Healthy and freezer friendly 💪
I watch so many other channels when I want to present food to friends and family on occasions.
I watch Josh's videos to survive day-to-day.
lol that's the goal 😎
so i don't have an oven, but an air fryer. would there be much of a difference in cooking times and temperatures?
