Damn Delicious Meal Prep: 115 Easy Recipes for Low-Calorie, High-Energy Living

I've been following this cookbook for about a month now. I love it! Now a legit criticism is often some of the portions can be too small (I'm 22 yo male), but its not too hard to anticipate that since she gives calorie counts for every meal. Seriously though, this book is amazing! Meals for breakfast, cold lunch, warm lunch, smoothies, snacks, frozen meals, and dinner! Gives you the grocery list so you can make 4 servings of the meal, walks you through step by step, and each meal has a picture with it! The calorie breakdown is super helpful, and she has a very diverse array of foods, which is lovely as well. I spent hours trying to pick a cookbook to buy, and I am 100% satisfied.

Let me say.. this book is AMAZING. I have a fast food addiction and I’m also ADHD. Cooking every night stresses me out and I think I’ve gained like 10 pounds just in the last two weeks. This not only has recipes, but complete guides for shopping list. It has anything from breakfast, lunch dinner, and smoothies. I’m hoping to use this book to begin my healthy food journey and change my eating habits. The intro to this book has a very personal vibe and I love how straightforward it is. It’s also a hardcover book which I love. Super easy to flip pages and every single page contains a picture of what you’ll be making. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Full of ideas, nice pictures and healthy recipe suggestions. Gifted to my daughter who loved it as well. She's always on the run and requires meal preps in advance.

Great book to have for low calorie meals! However I need some clarification, the nutritional facts on the bottom of each page, are they for the total serving size or for jus one serving of the recipe?

One of my favorite recipe books for healthy eating! I have made a ton of these recipes and they are all very tasty! Great pics and easy instructions w nutritional values too. Love it!

I bought this book to give me inspiration for my weekly meal preps of breakfasts and lunches that I bring to work, while I may not follow recipes to the T, I do appreciate the time and effort that went into creating this great, low-calorie, diet-based cookbook. I really like that she includes all nutritional information at the bottom of the page and a very clear ingredient list on the side. I think there's a pretty wide range in amounts of calories in each category of recipes which is nice to see. The one small downside is that depending on your diet needs, you may have to make some small adjustments to some of the recipes, but nothing too too major. For example: I weight lift 4 times a week and therefore I need to up the protein amount in some of the meals, but this is very simple to do and barely changes the recipe at all. Overall, it is a great cookbook!

The recipes and plans are great but the book binding is terrible. About a third of the middle is starting to come away from the back and starting to fall out.

I've tried several different meals and so far, I've loved every one! Many "skinny" meals found in other places taste like boiled chicken and broccoli with no flavor, but these meals are full of flavor. The mix of spices in every meal keeps them exciting. This is definitely a cookbook I'll continue to reach for frequently. My fiance is kind of picky with food and doesn't like it when things "taste healthy," but he's liked everything so far as well. His only complaint is "too much tomato" for some dishes. If I replace regular canned diced tomatoes with the petite diced tomatoes, he doesn't mind it so much. It doesn't take too long to prepare the dishes. I'm slow at chopping, so that probably takes a bit. Overall, the instructions are easy to follow and the pictures show how you can plate it nicely. Some of the meals we've tried with fiance (picky eater) reviews: * Freezer Breakfast Croissant Sandwiches (they're only 200 calories, but super delicious!! This one is definitely a winner! I've made at least 3 batches. Fiance loves this one too) * Skinny Gumbo (very tasty, but fiance said too much tomato) * Burrito Bowl (I couldn't get the sauce to taste right, but everything else, including meat seasoning, was great) * Zucchini Noodles with Turkey Meatballs (SO TASTY!! I was afraid this would "taste healthy," but they turned out great! Even my fiance liked it) * Tikka Masala (fiance said too much tomato) * Greek Bowl (fiance said it tasted like yogurt, but I probably had portions wrong with the cucumber and he's not a huge fan of Greek food or Greek yogurt to begin with. The chicken was seasoned perfectly. I ended up cutting it into pieces before grilling so it would cook better on our electric stove top) * Chili (Great flavor, may add shredded chicken the next time I make it) * DIY Pizza Plate (Great snack. Fiance loves it and frequently requests it) * Buffalo chicken celery sticks (another great snack) Again, the flavor is great and this is a cookbook I'll continue to reach for.

This is such a great book, wonderful recipes, glossy pictures, and all the nutritional info is fantastic, highly recommend

After losing a load of weight I lost motivation and put some back in. Food became boring and I couldn’t work out how to meal prep, everything I made didn’t last. This book has completely changed that and is one of the few books where a good 90% of the recipes I actually want to eat! Usually a book only contains a couple. The prep is well laid out and it also teaches you about the way meal prep helps. Highly recommend!

LOVE all the Damn Delicious recipes. I follow her and have had much success with her recipes. Nice to have the printed copy instead of having to keep stopping/rewinding the video.

This really is a game changer. The book is very well rounded. I love the comments and tips the writer gives. It is set out so beautifully and with pictures. It is worth the price tag. You will not be disappointed!

Okay, guys. I just got this cookbook delivered today and I'm beyond excited to try Rhee's recipes. She has amazing suggestions for ways to increase protein content and lower calories in meals - the perfect combo for me since I'm trying to lose some weight but also need to eat more protein. Her humor is on every single page and that got me to read her "Introduction" bit because her writing is actually a joy. She's so relatable and is a genius! This is exactly the cookbook I needed and I'm so grateful I listened to other peoples' reviews and bought it. I can't wait to try her Korean bibimbap!! Thank you, Rhee, for this amazing book. You're going to help me get my health back on track, I feel it. BUY THIS BOOK.
