List of Ingredients
1. Plan meals at least a week in advance to incorporate the use of
leftovers. For example, have baked chicken, mashed potatoes, and
gravy for dinner Sunday, and then use the leftover gravy as the base
of beef stroganoff Monday.
2. If you know you're not going to have time to cook one evening,
prepare two dinners the night before and just reheat one the next
night.
3. When preparing a meal using grated cheese, chopped onions, etc.,
prepare more than the recipe calls for and refrigerate the rest for
another meal.
4. Clean your kitchen workspace as you go. When you're done there
will be little left to clean.
5. On grocery shopping day, have your children help individually
wrap their cookies, snacks, etc., for their lunches. Makes lunch
preparation for the rest of the week a breeze and snacks don't
disappear before lunches are made.
6. Don't hide your cookbooks away. Organize them where you can get
to them easily, and you will use them a lot more.
7. Keep a notepad on the front of the refrigerator for your shopping
list. When you run out of something write it on the list right away.
Encourage family members to do the same.
8. Prepare favorite beverages like lemonade, tea, or Kool Aid in
gallon-sized pitchers, and you won't have to make them as often.
