EP 151 // 3 Simple Time Management Tips When Cooking from Scratch When You are Busy


Listen Later

Hello Friend

I want to give you 3 simple time management tips to put into place when cooking from scratch because I know it can seem a little overwhelming at first.

First, I want you to decide on 1 new item you want to make.  If there is a recipe that you would like to make, but don’t want to waste time researching, please just email me because I have tried many and if I find one is simpler than another and just as good, I will stick with the simple one!  I don’t want you wasting time on pinterest or social media because that will keep you from getting into action.  Once you have that recipe,make sure you have all the ingredients or make a list of ingredients you need and when you will go shopping for them.

Next, put it on the calendar to make so you know exactly which day you will be doing it.  Allow for time to prepare and make sure you know the cook time-one of the worst things that could happen is that you have it on the calendar to make and you didn’t realize how long it was going to take and can’t eat until 10pm!

And Last, if you family likes this meal and it was simple for you to make, put it into a favorites recipe binder.  This will help you stay organized and make it easy to pull out when you need a quick from scratch meal.  

Repeat this process until you have a few weeks worth of recipes and that will make it super easy to plan your from scratch meals easily.  

The key to not getting stressed out about cooking healthier is do it slowly. Try 1 meal a week to start out if doing more than that stresses you out.  You don’t have to eat perfectly, but when you transition slowly, you will have lasting change.
