    A general tip: If you want to coat your veggies in oil and then salt and pepper, do it in a bowl. If you drizzle it over on a sheet pan like they're showing here, you're gonna waste way to much oil and everything isn't gonna be coated properly. It might be an extra dish to wash but it's worth it.

      @@Evija3000 I'm guessing you're not Asian. I've had rice every day, every meal for months before BUT with different stuff every time. Rice is more of a filler, that has no taste, you eat it with stuff.

      @@gwot I get the idea, but I prefer fillers that have some taste like potatoes or buckwheat, at least to eat multiple days in a row. Also yes I'm not Asian, but European and I'm just more used to things like potatoes and I know many variations and meals to do with them. Not so much with rice.

    I only made it half way through the video and I'm hooked. I work 55 or so hours a week trying to pay off some loans and with high gas prices ( cost me over $300 a week for gas) I need a cost effective meal plan and be able to prepare in advance for the week ahead. So, not being the most creative type of person, I came across your video and I can see the ease in doing this. Thanks for the nutritious and thoughtful way to prepare in advance. Thanks a bunch!

      She's right. It's because the condensation that happens when hot food is covered, will spoil the food faster. So it won't last as long and yes, to the person who asked if it gets runny, depending on the food, it can mess with the consistency.
