Simplify. I just lost my husband of 45 + years and I am having to change my old routines based on cooking for 2. I always did cook once eat twice or more. Now I cook once a week and freeze a lot of future meals. So far it’s helping me get back to eating again. Tonight it’s ground beef stroganoff and broccoli on kasha.

Totally agree with the two birds concept. I cook a triple batch of rice at a time, then freeze it in Ziploc bags. When I need rice, it's ready to go. I also buy bulk ground beef, cook it with onions, and freeze it in 1-lb portions. It thaws so much faster than a block of raw meat, and saves the first step for lots of different recipes.

❤SIMPLIFY. I naturally do many of the things you mentioned, but a few were new to me. Especially when it comes to meal planning. I've lived alone for years so planning didn't happen. I'd eat whatever I had. However I've recently married (at age 71) and will need to put more thought into ingredients and having a plan. I like your food hacks. I enjoy your ideas of making food healthier and nutrient packed. I like prepping and cooking in the morning and I seriously hate prepping food and chopping veggies at night. And if the recipe isn't easy to make, and easily memorized, I won't do it. I need a lot of simplicity in the kitchen - I believe others in my age group would agree. ❤

Sink of soapy water whilst cooking for easy clean as you go!
I have been working on my kitchen today, it turned into more of a deep clean as there wasn't much to declutter. I've reached that point in my decluttering journey at last! (For the kitchen at least 😂)
Today I discarded x3 mugs and x2 reusable fabric bags (which I'll use to take items to the charity shop in) that was it, we use everything else!

I do not enjoy cooking so I need that cook book. 7 ingredients or less sounds right up my alley. The easier the better. My home is already very simplified. Almost too much. My son’s girlfriend likes to come over and cook and she keeps asking me for utensils I don’t have. The other day it was a whisk. I said I just use a fork 🥴🤷♀️

SIMPLIFY!
Something that has worked well for me and my fiancé is only cooking meals on the weekends. On Fridays we usually cook a 3 day meal (like soup) and Saturdays and Sundays are 2 day meals. This makes it so we don’t have to clean up after cooking every night throughout the week and can spend more quality time together 😊

SIMPLIFY! - We have an Ambiano dual/multi cooker that is a pressure cooker/slow cooker and air fryer with separate lids. We got it for the pressure cooker so we could make our own dry beans faster. We also use it to make rice faster, too. We mostly use our air fryer for fun things like hot dogs, French fries and breaded frozen fish. I actually made brownies in a 6 inch round pan that turned out well. For the first time LAST NIGHT I made 3# of dry rub baby back ribs in about an hour all in the same cooker. Started 35 minutes on low in the pressure cooker. Then drained the liquid and slathered BBQ sauce on all sides and air fried for 5 minutes. PERFECT! Now we have left overs for 2 more meals. YAY!

I’m not really a minimalist, but love watching your videos. It has helped me simplify my life, making it easier to do housework and free up time to do the things I want to do rather than have to do. I keep things I use daily on my countertops (coffee maker, salt/pepper grinders, oil dispenser), but everything else is stored in drawers and cabinets. I’ve also reduced the amount of food in my pantry and refrigerator, so I no longer throw out spoiled or expired food. Double batching meals is a practice I learned from my Mom.

Simplify. Another kitchen hack when it comes to recipes is probably an old one but when I find a recipe I like I either have a notebook/binder or index cards at the ready and I write it down. This way I don't need to have the physical copy of a cook book available all the time, I just pull out the recipe I need and put it back when I'm done with it.
