Save Time & Money with These One-Pot Wonders!
As many of you know, I teach a regularly at the Brooklyn Brainery - a place I love! Back in March, Mental_Floss reporter Shaunacy Ferro joined the class to wrap her head around the essential meal planning strategies that make eating a nourishing whole-foods diet possible. Her take-aways were summarized in a feature article on the site. I'm thrilled share the highlights of her piece, 5 Easy Ideas to Get Yourself to Cook More at Home.
- Making the time to cook,
- Develop a list of kitchen "must-haves."
- Writing out the week's strategy and an accompanying shopping list.
- Dropping the hesitation to cook for more than one meal, and lastly, owning a few one-pot meals.
- Don't be afraid to cook a lot of food!
You can also get the full story here.
