Good omelette! But … how many times have you already prepared it this week?
Time runs merciless between one commitment and the other and often remain there the minutes counted to improvise quick recipes and simple. So here we are to take refuge in the usual preparations experimented over and over again that make us feel safe. But let's face it: they bore us even a little.
And to avoid that lunches and dinners turn into something obvious, we are ready to show you that there are at least 20 recipes ready in 20 minutes that will whet your appetite.
But before choosing the ones that do for you, give an eye to our advice so as not to be frightened by the lack of time (and organize yourself a little).
The routine
The daily life of each house is the result of the sum of the commitments of its inhabitants. Like sports appointments twice a week, aperitifs with friends on Thursdays, Saturday night pizza and so on. First of all, mind local and identify all the consequences of your main meal commitments. How many do you use at home? And how many times will you be back in time to dedicate yourself to longer preparations?
Once you have a pattern of your routine, you are ready to go.
Shopping
Now that you have defined the meals you will make at home and how many you will be sitting around the table, it is time to draw up the menu for the week and shopping. Choose recipes based on the time you will have to prepare them, but also making sure to take balanced amounts of vegetables, fruit, fiber, protein and carbohydrates.
If planning is not in your ropes, help yourself with a notebook, it will help you keep the situation under control.

Usually it is good to concentrate on the recipe with longer cooking times, so as to put it on the fire as you go along with everything else. In the case, on the other hand, when the preparation time of the ingredients exceed the cooking time, let us dedicate ourselves to this preliminary phase, so everything will be ready to be put in the pot without making us lose more minutes to be dedicated to washing and cutting.
