As Hectic Back-To School Season Begins
Have you heard? More than 50% of Americans don’t really like to spend time preparing meals. Most people say they simply don’t have enough hours in the day to spend in the kitchen. Researchers say you can save a lot of money cooking in.
Food Network’s Chef Jeff Mauro has a solution for busy families when it comes to weekly meal planning. Jeff says if there’s a recipe your family loves, don’t just double it, triple it. Tripling the recipe equals triple the time savings.
Another tip: Quick and easy breakfast overnight oats are Jeff’s favorite, make a big batch of oatmeal, divide it up into jars, sweeten it with juice, add fresh fruit leave it in the fridge for a great grab-and-go breakfast!

Unique Back-to-School Hacks:
- Cook Once Eat Twice: Turn dinner into lunch! Make last night’s chicken fingers with Jeff’s homemade mango sauce, into a lunch box rollup, just add some lettuce, tomato, use the mango sauce as a condiment and send your kids out the door.
- Interactive Food: Have kids build their own pinwheel lunches. Make a ham & cheese wrap by preparing a lunch box with ingredients and let them have fun putting it all together.
- Use a frozen juice box as an icepack: it can keep everything cold, then double as a drink once it defrosts
