How long does it take you to make dinner? Does it sound to you like we are spending a lot of our time cooking? We’re really not. For most of the pre-cooking we do, the time is measured in minutes not hours. And we cook extras each time so many of our meals are just get something from the frig and heat it or eat it cold.
Take tonight’s supper. I just peeled and chopped a pre-cooked sweet potato and stirred that into some leftover green beans. Later I will add pre-cooked ground beef, half a can of tomatoes and some spices. That will then get heated in the microwave and served.

All that takes less time to get food on our table than any food we can get locally and we live within a mile of McDonald’s, Red Robin, Broadway Pizza, Wendy’s, Arby’s, Burger King, Perkins, Chili’s, DQ, LeAnn Chin, Subway, Jimmy John’s, Davanni’s, and two sports bars that keep changing their names.
Fast food? It’s in our kitchen.

We RARELY eat fast food. First it isn’t all the fast. Second, it cost too much. Third, toooooooo many calories!
Many times it’s so much easier to eat in than eat out. I just hate the shopping for it part.
