how long do these dishes last in the fridge
I don’t keep anything longer than 5 days in the fridge
What is the name of the salsa you used?
I just buy whatever is cheapest at the store. I don’t use a specific one.
Hey my friend, I’ve been watching all of your videos on Youtube. Are you okay with me taking a screenshot of this recipe and posting it in my workout group?
Hello, and thank you for asking. I appreciate that. I would prefer it if you would just link them to either the youtube link or here to this page 👍
Fantastic recipe and will definitely give it a go this week. Would you mind posting what the macros would be on an 80/20 ground beef version? You got me curious…
You would need to put that into a calculator like MyFitnessPal to figure out what it would be with the fattier beef 👍
This is the third recipe I’ve tried since signing up for TMPM and man this one is delicious, by far my favorite. I used ground and seasoned to taste and it turned out excellent, will definitely be a staple in my meal prep menu going forward.
This is a favorite. Simple yet, enjoyable!
great recipe, thanks
Is it 1/2 cup of cheese in total or per serving?
