2 hrs?
Do you spend 6 hrs a day cooking and do not do any clean as you go?
Wtf are you preparing? Are you stuffing a turkey each meal?
Make less elaborate meals or learn to chop faster.
Listen to podcasts, or watch something during cooking dude.
Meal prep, and cooking stuff that doesn't need much involvement.
I eat 6 meals per day when I'm trying to gain weight, and it can be done with very little time spent cooking.
Boiled chicken and rice with a side of protein shake doesn't count as food.
I haven't had the need for that in a long time. I've been working out for so long that my maintenance calories are 3700 right now. I can eat whatever I want and still hit my protein goal within my calorie budget
We recently got an airfryer. it helps cut down prep time and ease of cleaning to the point I don't get upset about it anymore. Would highly recommend if you haven't got one already
Those numbers are off. It takes me about half an hour to cook a meal. I clean while things are cooking if I can. And it takes me about the same time to eat. I get that it's a joke, but it's entirely unrealistic unless you're doing things very wrong.
Cooking a steak takes 5 minutes. You make a side salad while it's frying. Everything goes into the dishwasher in a few more minutes. Not sure what your problem is...
A dishwasher not my hands? What is this wild technology you speak of?
This is great, do you have any more recipes?
If you have a Ninja Speedy, you can cook loads of dishes in 10-15 minutes, but only for 1-2 people at once. My fav is to cube potatoes and pork belly at 2cm size, mix with salt, spices and oil, put everything in the device and cook for 12 minutes in steam + air fry mode.
Thanks! Now my girlfriend has dumped me because I ruined her cast iron pan.
leftovers are the goal
The term is meal prep
Slow cooker is fren
Turns beef into beef flavored chicken, I love it.
just cook bigger portions, i usually make enough food to last half a week
I’ve been eating the same two-pound portion of taco meat for the past four days. Usually in soft-shell tacos, but sometimes in frittatas. The trick is to be dead inside.
This is ideal because the tortilla IS the plate.
You're not dead inside until you move to hard tacos.
You forgot the 40+ hours of work a week just to afford the ingridients.
You forgot breathing in and out 24/7 to stay alive to get to your soul-sucking job.
Life would be so much easier if we didn't have to constantly breathe.

Lucky you! I've got a simple solution, only use single use plastic, then all you have to do is just put a big plastic bag over your table and when you're done eating you just pick up the bag, close it all up and throw it away and that way you just leave the problem to your grandchildren and they'll die from climate change.
I also add shredded PFAS to my tomatoes 🤌

My solution is just to act like I'm cooking for 12 people, and have leftovers for the rest of the week.
