As a person who has to prep breakfast, spaghetti is probably the easiest non-breakfast-typical meal to prep and that’s like 5 times more work to prep than toast + eggs + yogurt + bananas.
Though I did experience “breakfast is for dinners leftovers” in one family and that seems to work well when planned for
- leipert 3y agoSpaghettis being more work than all of that? Just takes one pot and a few minutes, some pesto and done. Cleaning up after making eggs is more work than the entire spaghetti dish.
- xur17 3y agoI mix eggs in a mug, and lightly rinse it out before shoving it straight in the dishwasher. The pan takes 20 seconds to clean in the sink.
- rtpg 3y agoI mean the spaghetti takes 9 minutes to cook, right? Meanwhile a sunny side up egg is maybe 3 minutes? I don’t have canned sauce (a me thing), I make it just by doing “olive oil in pan with garlic, then throw in some cut up tomatoes”. I really like this but it’s a thing. Pasta pot is of course bigger than a pan too. But I’m more talking about the time commitment since mornings are usually “I want to eat ASAP” And egg cleanup is one pan? Scrambled there’s a bowl but this is why God invented washing machines Ultimately everyone has their own rhythm though
