Pipelines have been good for sales. We've also used them to manage fruits so there is a perfectly ripened fruit each day. Now let's see how it looks like when planning meals!
I love to cook, but if I had to cook every meal, then i would spend more than half my life in this hot kitchen (I exaggerate). And then I won't have time to do my other jobs. So, I've designed a system where:
- I cook enough for 3 meals
- 1 meal is eaten fresh, the other 2 days later, and the 3rd is immediately frozen to be eaten in a week (a healthy frozen dinner)....space it out so we don't get bored of the same meal day after day.
- The meal does not take that much longer to prepare if 3 times the size. And if the meal is time-consuming to prepare, then the time spent delivers more value.
- The meal freezes and thaws well.
- Alternate...do a recipe once every month or so, and not more often,
- Introduce 1 newly prepared side dish when there is a left-over; e.g. salad.
EXAMPLES:
- Spaghetti sauce...then use this with different recipes like: Mexican Starw Hat, Chili beans, etc.
- Tuna casserole...and other casseroles
- Lasagna
- Moussaka
- Hainanese Chicken
- BBQ Chicken
- Curry dishes with Pork & Chicken
- Red Stuffed peppers and spinach
- Sauces for baked fish like: leek and butter
- Salad toppings like: caramelized beets (ginger, etc)
- I need more ideas or I will get bored!
