Quarantine Cooking Tips

As we continue in what seems like a never-ending stay at home lifestyle, mostly all of us are cooking at home more, myself included. This can be a but daunting for people (especially the way things are right now durning COVID times), so I though I’d make a list of some ways to help streamline the home cooking process and give some pro tips to help streamline your meal prep time and allow you to think ahead in ways you may not have thought about before.

I love roasting whole chickens at home, the whole house smells great and you get a great yield out of a whole bird. Always save you bones for stock or soups, nothing should go to waste!

When grocery shopping cut up vegetables a head of time: things like cauliflower, or cabbage go a long way and will help yourself stay organized.

Use up those leftovers!

• Yesterdays roast chicken can be todays chicken salad;

• Got a bunch of cooked veggies….turn it into a frittata for breakfast.

• Just about anything can be turned into a sandwich

• Clean as you go! It’s makes a world of difference

• The humble potato is one of the most versatile ingredients on the planet (gnocchi, mashed, baked, hash browns, roasted, fried)

Don’t be afraid to let you creative flag fly, try something new and add it to your repertoire
