    We eat scratch meals 13 out of 14 nights a week and don’t spend that much time in the kitchen. Some meals require a long time to make and so I will double, triple, quadruple a recipe and freeze the leftovers. It’s not much harder to make a bigger batch of a thing . Today I just took out a bag of frozen meatballs. Easy. That goes for prepping ingredients. Chop and wash a whole head of lettuce. Chop a whole onion. Refrigerate what you don’t use and it’s ready to go. Also as another poster described, recycle foods. Last nights pot roast is tonight’s beef and noodles. And wash dishes in between steps. Don’t wait. That drives me crazy. The husband will stand there watching onions cook after he just piled dishes in the sink. Multi tasking 👍
