It’s all in the preparation

Cooking and freezing extra meals means a super quick and easy meal for another night. Just heat and eat. Soups, curries, lasagne, stews and mince all freeze well.
Freeze snacks for when friends or family visit eg, homemade savoury or banana bran muffins, meatballs or homemade ice blocks.
Freeze or stew in-season fruit. Stewed plums and feijoas taste great on porridge or breakfast cereal. Frozen berries and bananas are perfect for smoothies.
Slow cookers are great for busy families. In the morning put everything into the pot, turn on, and come home to a tasty cooked meal.
Canned chickpeas, lentils and beans are quick, low-cost ways to bulk up meals.
