Apply these five tips to your everyday cooking and you'll have more time for the rest of your life. 1) Use Convenience Products Convenience products, or 'value-added' products as they are known in the industry, are foods which have been processed, usually to include more than one item. Frozen mixed vegetables are a convenience product, as is prepared pesto and pasta sauces. By keeping a store of these items in your pantry, fridge, and freezer, and collecting recipes that use them, you can dramatically reduce the time you spend in the kitchen. 2) Read Through the Recipe First It's essential to read completely through the recipe you have chosen before you begin. Try to literally see yourself going through each step to make sure you understand the process and that you have all of the food, utensils, and equipment you need on hand. 3) Use Fewer Ingredients Recipes that use fewer ingredients are automatically going to be faster to make. You can vary these recipes by adding more ingredients if you'd like, depending on what you have on hand, what your family likes, and what looks good in the market.   Best Moves in a Bad Economy Save & Invest the Right Way Find out how to beat a bear market, make smart choices, and keep your cool even when the economy is unpredictable.
