9 Time Poor and Hungry Eating well doesn t mean you have to spend hours in the kitchen. First week To help reduce the time you spend in the kitchen plan & prep ahead, cook once & make extra and nail a few one-pot-wonders. Often midweek, the rush to get dinner on the table can undo even the best of plans to eat well. So here at Voome HQ we have pulled together our most effective tips on how to reduce the time you spend in the kitchen, whilst still eating healthy delicious meals. The Why/Benefits: 1 Plan ahead: Pull together a menu and shopping list and then stick to it. It may take you minutes to pull together your weekly meal plan & shopping list but it will save you much more than that during the week by skipping those additional visits to the store. During the planning process, make sure you read through each recipe that you intend to use so you are aware of any additional prep, such as marinating, that may be required. 2 Not everything has to be peeled: Foods such as butternut pumpkin, carrots, cucumbers, eggplant and even some potatoes do not need to be peeled to be added to your meal. In fact, by leaving the skin on your cucumbers will more than double your fibre intake. 1 3 Prep before you start and clean up as you go: You may not believe it, but prepping your ingredients before you start cooking will save you a lot of time and heartache. As you prepare your ingredients, group them together in the order in which they are added to the dish. Once you have prepped all your ingredients, throw all rubbish in the bin and put away anything that is no longer needed; thus reducing clutter. Also make sure you have access to your sink, so, as you use bowls, give them a quick rinse and put in the dishwasher or stack them ready to be washed later, thus saving you time during clean up. 4 Cook once, eat many ways and make extra: Cook up key ingredients which will be used in multiple dishes during the week just once, saving cooking time later on. For example, roast up a chicken for Sunday lunch. Skin and shred any leftovers and then divide into portions to be used later during the week for a chicken salad wrap and then added to a pasta sauce for dinner. On a similar note, when making popular meals that freeze and thaw well, make extra. As you are serving the meal, plate up some spare serves in disposable takeaway containers. Make sure you label what the meal is and when it was made, then pop it into the freezer to be consumed at a later date. 5 Master a few one pot meals: One pot meals may take a little longer to make, but often they are great for freezing and thawing later. Master a few one pot meals that require very little active time. Instead look for those recipes that require you to chuck in a majority, if not all, of the ingredients at once and then let it simmer away, whilst you can do something else. What else?/warnings/prac tips/our Stance: If you do have to resort to take away, restaurants with 20 or more outlets must display the kilojoule content of all menu items. Look for the menu items that have less kilojoules as well as contain plenty of vegetable or salad ingredients. Calories & kilojoules are both units of energy. If you think calories, just divide kilojoules by 4.2. Check out some of our time saver recipes on the following page 1 Food Standards Australia New Zealand, NUTTAB, 2011,

10 Time Poor and Hungry Eating well doesn t mean you have to spend hours in the kitchen. Here is a selection of our time saver recipes Asian Cabbage Salad 15 min 320 cal This is a great time saver as the ingredients need minimal prep; just chop, mix and serve.

To save you time later, make up a large batch of the bean mix and freeze in single portions, that way all you have to do is heat up the mixture, bake your chips, dollop & serve. Prep time Cooking time Calories per serve (based on a 1200 daily calorie level) Beef Pad See Ew 15 min 10 min 270 cal The beauty of this recipe is that there is very little chopping, which often takes up a lot of time. If you are really strapped for time, purchase stir-fry beef that is already cut rather than rump which you will need to dice yourself. Chicken Tikka Curry with Cauliflower Mash 15 min 25 min 335 cal This recipe involves some marinating, so make sure you plan ahead. Using cauliflower as a mash base rather than potato saves quite a bit of time as you simply chop it into large chunks and then once cooked, whizz it up in the blender. 2 Prices compared at Woolworths Online as at 22nd Sept 2015
