Well, you are committing the same miscalculation that books and magazine articles about "healthy meals in 30-minutes or less" make. You leave out...
1) meal planning,
2) shopping for fresh vegetables & other ingredients
3) prep work (washing, cutting vegetables, etc),
4) clean up
Healthy meals prepared by someone else saves a huge ton of time -- if one honestly accounts for all the extra time before & after the heating of the food.
- Mikeb85 11y agoMy time includes prep work (takes all of 2 minutes) and cleaning (1 pan if I don't grill the fish, 1 bowl - everything can go in the dishwasher). Meal planning well, that takes experience. If you cook for yourself, it means you buy some vegetables, and pick up whatever looks good at the butcher/fishmonger on the way home. Rice/potatoes are something I always have at home.
