Today I would like to share with you some of my secrets. How do I try to be a great mom and work from home, and make sure the household runs smoothly? Well one of my secrets is the way I cook.
Let me explain what I mean by this. First of all the most important thing for me is that my family should eat healthy , well balanced, and nutritional food. So I simply make sure that the food I prepare is all the above. But her's the thing I do not make fancy food, and I try not to spend more than 15 to 20 minutes in preperation. Okay so how do I manage that? It's simple I take a lot of short cuts. For example chicken is healthy, right? Well the quickest way to cook a chicken is to simply place it in a disposable pan , rub it with sweet paprika, grill seasoning and oil. Make sure it is covered with these three ingredients and then presto turn the oven on for 1 hour. After the chickenis well browned after 1 hour you can turn in over and have it cook for another 15 minutes. If you like a well grilled crunchy chicken you'll love this easy short cut!
Now, what can you prepare with this quick fix chicken? Well to make a well balanced meal we need a vegetable and a carb. I like making a quick pot of rice, and steam in another pot broccolli. How long does this dinner take to prepare together with a bowl of fresh salad? No more than 20 minutes of preperation time for the entire meal to be prepared. Remember cooking time does not ever have to be a problem, you do not have to be in the kitchen while something is cooking over a low fire. Just keep a timer on, so you don't burn your food. For instance the chicken which will cook for an hour in the oven, place your timer on, and go take care of other household work, or if the baby is sleeping work online to earn money. Add some entries to your blog, or work on that business of yours from home.
Cooking healthy meals does not have to be a big deal. In fact yummy and healthy ffosd can be accomplished in no time at all. I use a wok almost all the time. I found a wok is just another short cut to making meals quickly and easily. I will write up in my next post about how I use my wok to make easy dinners that take me 10 minutes!
