We all get into the habit of doing things a certain way and never thinking about finding better, easier options. Well, it’s time for a change! Want to spend less time in the kitchen and more time doing what you really want? We’ve got solutions!
|
| Say goodbye to long cooking, roasting, and baking…say hello to dinner on the table at a reasonable hour. |
 |
When making meat loaf, instead of making one big one, make individual-sized ones so everybody gets their own. Besides being easier to serve, they cook in about half the time. |
|
Instead of making roasts that cook for hours, cut them into steaks before cooking to cut cooking time to minutes instead of hours. |
|
Pound chicken breasts with a meat mallet or cut them into thin cutlets to reduce by half the time needed for sautéing, grilling, or baking. |
|
Use cut-up, ready-to-cook chicken parts instead of whole chickens. Pieces cook much faster. |
|
Cut down on the cooking time for casseroles by making 2 smaller ones, rather than 1 larger one, or by using shallower baking dishes. |
|
Make labor-intense meals like lasagna or baked ziti in advance, in smaller sizes. Then you just have to reheat and eat! |
|
When making gelatin, pour it into single-serve glasses or bowls. They’ll chill and firm up in less than half the time of one big bowl. |
|
Instead of baking a cake in a cake pan, pour the batter into muffin cups. You’ll end up with quick take-along treats that bake in half the time of cake! One box of cake mix makes about 24 cupcakes. |
