If its to be a fancy dessert, have a simple main course that can be cooked altogether, preferably in the oven. When you plan a casserole which requires several ingredients and sauce, have a simple dessert such as fresh or canned fruit with cookies that have been baked in ad- vance. Save trips to the refrigerator by taking out all supplies that are needed for the preparation of the dishes. When making a dish, measure all ingredients at one time and set them on a tray so your preparation will not be interrupted, and thus cause you to forget steps in the recipe. Plan to buy staples once a week, and thus save quick though short trips to the grocery several times each day. Meat, fruit and vegetables should also be purchased according to schedule. Prepare foods ahead of time whenever possible so that you can feel fresh and rested for meal time. Tomorrows dessert may be baked with this evenings dinner, for ex ample. Have a roast at least once a week to save meal preparation. Already cooked meat can be used sliced, heated with gravy, as meat pie and hash. Arrange equipment for conven lent reaching, and learn how to sit while you work so that you can save energy. Make mixes in your leisure time so youll have them on hand to save meal time preparation. Basic mixtures to have on.hand include refrigerated cookie and yeast roll doughs, biscuit and pie crust mix. The simpler the meals you plan, the easier it will be for you to prepare them.
