This is not a post about breakfast.
It’s about dinner believe it or not.
I’m not talking about eating protein in the morning, but actually, cooking it for later in the day.
Hannah and I have been long time fans of meal prepping. Kids, after school activities, and rides have made this more difficult recently, especially if we’re trying to cook dinner at 4pm with hungry kids asking to eat. We were forgetting to defrost something too often and would end up having sandwiches for dinner (if we had bread).
I’ve started making dinner in the morning. It’s when we have a little extra time, and we don’t have to rush later in the day.
Not only does it make sure we have dinner ready, but also that we have something to eat for lunch.
Later this morning I’m putting chicken thighs in the Crockpot that’ll be ready for Hannah’s lunch and cooking a pack of ground beef for later.
It’s been a subtle change, but impactful.
