How to Save Lots of Time in the Kitchen
How to Save Lots of Time in the Kitchen Cooking is one of the things that can really take up a lot of our time. Just the very act of cooking can eat up hours of our week (pun intended). First, think ahead Don’t wait until the last minute to know what you're serving for dinner. Second, plan ahead Planning ahead involves thinking about what’s going on during the coming week and actually working around it. I plan my meals for the week on the weekend before. So, when I wake each morning I already know what’s for dinner and I can either: • Take something out of the freezer • Put something in the crockpot • Know that I’m going to cook ABC this afternoon or • Know we’re having leftovers Completely plan the week’s menus and be sure to include cooking ahead. For instance, Saturday’s leftover spaghetti sauce could become Monday’s lasagna and then Tuesday’s beef-a-roni and then Friday’s shepherd’s pie And, of course, you’d want to freeze the sauce after a couple of days and pull it out of the freezer to use in the later meals. Third, follow through with actual action Thinking and planning are great but are only the first couple of steps. The third is the most important one of all. ACTION.
