Dinner in a Hurry
May 6, 2009
I am always hearing about people who have too little time to cook. I always feel there is too little time not to. If I spend a long day working, I can stop by any half way decent grocery and, in ten minutes, come out with great fresh food, enough to make dinner.
When I get home, I can prepare that food and have dinner on the table in about twenty minutes.
This doesn’t mean that I am making a gourmet meal, nor that at times I don’t like to spend all day preparing a meal, but for me, fresh ingredients prepared simply and served hot are always worth the effort. Also, unless you work in a restaurant kitchen (or as I once did an assembly line in northern New Hampshire that made frozen chicken pot pies) coming home and cooking is a break from your day.
So, cook fresh simple food everyday. Sit down with the people you love for a meal every evening. And your life will be better for it.
