ay I heard on the news that a survey in England discovered that most women had a selection of 9 basic meals that they rotated to serve to the family for evening meals. Cooking for the family by busy mums should be quick and easy and definitely tasty.
I was really quite amazed to hear that. My mum used to have a small selection in her day but there was not a lot of variety to choose from then compared to what we are spoiled with today and most definitely mums in those days did not get hints from the TV and internet like they do today.
I would have thought that in today's era more women would have a much larger range in their 'regular' meal selection.
Doesn't that go to show how we do get wrapped up in our own 'normality' and think that most other people experience the same thing? I have always had an interest in food - herbs,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], cooking,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], catering and entertaining. In my blindness I thought that most other people also had at least a reasonable range of interest in cooking.
Apart from my own point of view I guess I have always thought that if someone is going to do something nearly every day (cook a family meal) then they would want some variety to make it more interesting. Huh,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], funny how that is not the case.
Here are some suggestions for Easy Budget Meals - Bacon and Egg Pie - Stacked Beef Enchiladas - Green curry Chicken - Tuna and Pasta Bake - Meat Loaf - Leek and Bacon Bake - Ham and Pineapple Salad - Filled Pancakes
There is no doubt that changing our habits takes some effort and for busy people that needs some motivation. The meals that have been suggested above are very simple and reasonably quick to prepare and that is what is needed for busy families.
Another requirement of a busy mum is that the meals must keep well because so often a meal has to be kept for a member of the family until later in the day or even until the next day.
Taking all this into consideration it is no wonder busy women tend to cut back on the range of meals they cook.
Shopping habits
Shopping is another element that affects what meals they cook. Busy women do not have all day to wander around a market as their time is of a premium and that is another reason why women tend to stick to the same recipes.
A tip for busy women is to concentrate on the one ingredient like ground beef and have a range of meals that can be served with it. Take ground beef for example, you could cook any of the following dishes:
All it would need would be to have the accompanying ingredients in the cupboard.
- Tacos - Enchiladas - Chillii con Carne - Stuffed Capsicums - Cottage Pie - Rissoles and Salad - Meat Balls and Pasta - Beef Burgers
With all these factors in mind there is a new cookbook online that also has a pantry list. For lots more ideas "Easy Budget Meals 4U" would help you expand your quick and easy meal range for the family with tasty dishes they will want again and again. Busy women do not have all day to wander around a mart as their time is of a premium and so surely you will benefit.
