When you are trying to get in shape food preparation can become a massive thorn in your side. And most people don’t have all day to make meals.
The good news here is that some simple strategies can save you a massive amount of time and energy.
So, without further ado, here is how not to spend all day preparing healthy food:
1. Have the same meals again and again: This is the simplest, yet most effective way to save time. You see, when you prepare the same meals over and over again you become very fast. You learn all the shortcuts and tricks for speeding up preparation.
2. Spread out grocery shopping as much as possible: There is nothing worse than having to make a trip to the grocery store because you ran out of an ingredient. So do all of your grocery shopping on a set interval and spread it out as much as possible for maximum time savings.
3. Don’t purchase whole eggs: You are far better off buying the readymade egg whites or egg substitutes. Although a little more expensive, it’s far better than spending all morning extracting egg whites from whole eggs.
4. Buy frozen sources of protein: Frozen protein will keep for extremely long periods of time and it doesn’t taste that bad. And keep in mind that fresh sources of protein tend to go bad relatively quickly. Additionally, protein is the most expensive food group.
5. Batch protein cooking: You can cook massive quantities of protein and it will keep for very long periods of time. And once you have a large batch of protein you can use it for many dishes. Eggs, for instance, can be used in salads, sandwiches and other dishes.
6. Get a slow cooker: If you have to cook for many people a slow cooker can be a godsend. And a lot of the newer models come with some really cool features that make the process virtually automatic. Even better, if you get a big slow cooker you can cook many servings at once.
The last thing you want when going on a diet is having to spend all day in the kitchen. So take action here today, don’t delay!
