I work mostly from home and there is no excuse for me to eat out. Having said that, it's challenging to cook come meal times everyday, the prep, the washing up, oh. My way around this is to cook in a big batch for the week.
This week I'm preparing 2 dishes to last until Friday. Weekends are reserved for meals out with friends or if I'm extra bored and have nothing to do, I'll cook something fancy. Most times, this doesn't happen, but yeah, moving on.
I think this week I'll have grilled chicken and steamed fish. Having the main protein ready means I'll spend, at most, just 10 mins reheating and chopping up vegetables when I'm ready to eat. Some meals I take with carbs (sweet potato is the flavour of the month), some with just greens. I like having lunches and dinners ready this way because I don't have to think too much about food and can use the extra brain power to do something more useful, like save Mother Earth. Naahh...
I'll do a post on batch cooking tomorrow if I have time, and will definitely post pics. Until then, happy clean living!
