Tips for Easy and Efficient Prep:
- Embrace one-pot meals: Opt for recipes that can be cooked in a single pot or skillet, such as stir-fries, pasta dishes, or rice bowls. These meals are not only time-saving but also minimize cleanup.
- Invest in a good quality blender or food processor: These appliances can help you whip up quick sauces, dressings, dips, and even smoothies, adding flavor and variety to your meals with minimal effort.
- Keep a well-stocked pantry: Stock up on non-perishable items like canned beans, lentils, tomatoes, and broths. These pantry staples can be the building blocks for quick and nutritious meals when you’re short on time.
By following these tips, you’ll be able to enjoy the bounty of August’s fresh produce while keeping your meal prep time to a minimum, ensuring that you can savor the last few weeks of summer without spending hours in the kitchen.
Hello…I am wondering how the pumpkin bread can be zero points. The spice cake mix has like 8 points for 1/10 of the package. Is there a certain brand you but that is zero points?
Thanks for reading Shar. You are right, that was a mistake. I replaced the cake with zero point dessert.
