Culinary Time Savers

Here are my tips for saving time when preparing meals or snacks.
Because I do these as second nature now,
they seem obvious to me, but hopefully it's something new and timesaving for you!

When making mince meat/bolognaise sauce for spaghetti, double the batch and save half for making a lasagne later in the week.

When boiling penne, shell or other pasta types, double the amount of pasta and save half for a
cold (or hot) pasta salad later in the week—or if your kiddies are like mine (pasta lovers), the cold pasta makes great finger food snacks.

Ooh, that reminds me I do have extra spaghetti sauce in my freezer from last time I made it so I won't need to make more when I make spaghetti for dinner tomorrow :D yay! I love it when I can make extra of something to put in the freezer to save time the next time I make it.
