A. Preparation is one of those skills I’m always trying to improve upon because I can be a little unpredictable sometimes (e.g. deciding to move to NYC on a whim with one month to do it!), and it doesn’t always work out in my advantage. To best answer this question, I’ll give the answer everyone hates (sorry), both…and it depends. On the weekends I’m all over the map, but on the weekdays I try to be as organized as possible to keep up with the chaos of daily life. One tip I have for better organization and to make cooking less time consuming during mealtimes (when I get “hangry” ha), is that I prepare some foods as soon as I get home from the grocery store. With these 3 food prep tips, you’ll be off to make easy vegan meals in no time (no pun intended!).
I always prepare my “core” foods ahead of time so that when it’s mealtime I’m not “in the weeds” with prep work. My core foods are my veggies, grains, and proteins. I create a system, like you see at Whole Foods (with a lot less glamour and whole lot more tupperware), where I have all my cores prepped, so worst case scenario I have some grab and go options.
