The Scheduled Chef

I love to cook. I love everything about cooking, from deciding on the recipe, to preparing the shopping list, to shopping for the items and then hunkering down in the kitchen to prepare my feasts. Of course I delight in the finished product because I love to eat too!! But, here’s the thing-I don’t love to cook everyday. I am the defrost-leftover-just-add-fresh-vegetables-and-fruit-queen. I schedule a time, usually on the weekend (but sometimes during the week) and cook “up a storm”. I enjoy one-pot wonders, soups, stews and casseroles; lean meats and poultry. The deep freezer is one of my favorite inventions. By cooking so much at once, I can simply decide what I’m in the mood to eat, go to the freezer, get it and in no time, it’s time to dine. It is such a time saver. Yes, it requires an upfront investment of my time, but the return on investment is well worth it.
