Planning ahead

If you are working, it may be difficult to cook every day, so try to plan ahead while shopping, to make sure you always have the basics in the fridge to prepare something to eat swiflty. I usually prepare the soup (any one) the day before, in the evening. I cook it and store it in the fridge. It is very easy to dish the soup out (after warming it up) and serve it. If you don't have time to worry about any main dish, you can always place bits of meat in the soup and make it thicker plus more nutritious. You can also boil some noodles and serve it with your soup. Try and experiment. Any hot meal during the day is better than junk food.
