You’re a single-solo (single and solely responsible for yourself and yourself solely). You’re busy and use a combination of take-out food, quick casual dining and frozen dinners to eat. This is the most efficient use of your time until evolution negates the nagging need to constantly feed. Right? Wrong.
It occurred to us that we can’t remember the last time we went for a quick lunch or dinner, whether take-out or quick-casual, where it took less than six minutes just to get our food. Sometimes, it takes longer. These waits made us wonder how much time is actually saved not cooking under the auspices of “saving time.”
If the average wait-time for lunch and dinner is 10 minutes, that’s anywhere from 50 to 100 minutes a week “grabbing a quick bite” five to 10 times. And this doesn’t include the road rage-induced travel time spent trying to save time.
The World Wide Web is chock-full of moms or dads diligently and methodically reducing the stresses of parenthood, which include feeding their children three square meals a day. These sites show pictures of evenly spaced slices of bread, equal parts sandwich ingredients and so much Tupperware Earl Tupper would smile.
As challenging as it sounds, single-solos should consider adopting meal plan mom strategies because net, they save more time, money and calories than convenient dining. Here are some strategies to try out.
This may sound as hard as it is to get off the couch to change the channel. For more help, you can visit many of the meal plan mom websites or learn how to make 42 meals for $75. Once you have a system, you can easily create meal plans that save time, money and calories.
