Well, it involves<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"> cooking all your food for the week in just a few hours<\/span>. It is a way to get closer to homemade and varied food, whilst leaving aside the rush and reducing the consumption of fast food.<\/p>\n<h3>What are the benefits?<\/h3>\n<p>On the one hand it is <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">a way to get us back in touch with our kitchens<\/span>. Many people like to cook, but due to lack of time or laziness after a day&#8217;s work, we end up eating &#8220;anything&#8221; we find laying around. Thanks to this method we only need to find a few free hours a week where we can cook all the week\u2019s recipes simultaneously.<\/p>\n<p>Batch cooking can also be extremely <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">economical<\/span>. On the one hand we reduce energy consumption, as we reduce the cost of cooking every day to just a few hours of cooking. Also, as mentioned above, we don&#8217;t spend money on ready-made or fast food which ends up being a high monthly cost.<\/p>\n<p>We mustn\u2019t forget that it is also <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">beneficial for our health and that of the planet<\/span>. Thanks to this cooking method, we reduce the consumption of ultra-processed food, we have more choice over our diets and we improve our nutrition. And, of course, we waste less food and save energy, reducing waste and pollution of the planet.<\/p>\n<h3>Tips for beginners<\/h3>\n<p>\u00b7 Before you start cooking, <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">choose your weekly menu<\/span>. Make a list of the dishes you want to make, so cooking will be quicker and more varied.<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7 <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Take advantage of ingredients and cooking<\/span>. We recommend choosing some meat, some fish and some cereals or legumes, and then combine them with vegetables to get varied dishes without having generated excessive expense.<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7 <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Choose the time that best suits you<\/span>. Enjoying cooking is easy when you can dedicate time to it, that&#8217;s why Sundays are a good day to enjoy cooking. Plus, it allows you to go into the week with your menu prepared so there\u2019s less to worry about.<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7 <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Mix it up with sauces<\/span>. Spice up your dishes by preparing different sauces that can last all week in the fridge. With just a little bit of sauce you can add a touch of goodness to all your meals, it&#8217;s easy and it&#8217;s delicious.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Now that back to school is approaching, the routines and the rush are back, it&#8217;s <strong>a perfect time to put it into practice<\/strong>, don&#8217;t you think?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Batch Cooking is a
