How Much Time Can Once A Month Cooking Recipes Save You?

Posted on 02. May, 2009 by Forest in Recipes & Food

Once A Month Cooking Recipes are something I love. You can vary them a lot and they don’t have to be made in one month batches, but the idea of batch cooking in general will save you a ton of time.

Just say you do actually cook in batches that allow you 7/8 single meals for one person. Many recipes such as pasta’s, soups and much much more can be made simultaneously with chopping of various vegetables synced and efficiency in cooking doubled by simply planning everything to be done all at once.

4 meals of 7/8 portions gives you generally enough for a month of dinner meals for one person. These kinds of once a month cooking recopies are often fairly easy and are widely available so that is not a problem.

4-8 of these meals could be done in an intense day of cooking, or upping the batches on the meals would allow you to supply food for one person longer or cook for the whole family.

I suspect that all cooking for a month for a 3 person family could be completed fair enough in a 2 6 hour day period. So estimating 12 hours here.

If you was to cook every evening for at least 1 hour that is 28 hours in a 4 week period. Many days I am sure the start to finish of cooking dinner exceeds 1 hour.

I would love to know what you think about once a month cooking recipes and if you use these methods to save time cooking.
