Managing meals and snacks on daily basis

[Peacefulbird]

Organization is the key, I cook in one shot rice, noodles, potatoes at once in the oven in pirex containers, while it cooks I chop the salads and steam veggies also ready in pirex containers, and at last I cut and cook the meats: beef, chicken, fish (I follow recipies for the gravies so it changes every week) and hard boiled eggs all ready to let it cool down and place it in the fridge. At last I do the daily snacks planning and packaging also ready to go. My fridge is turned to the coldest temperature, I love pirex glass containers they stack up very week in the fridge and you can see what you have in them, and washes absolutely clean.

There are also ideas to freeze certain foods ex. Lasagna, certain soups etc. When I cook I do my best to do at least more than three meals. (So, no waste of energy neither of my time .

My husband builted a tiny kitchenette (in a ikea closet) I have a mini fridge (for the snacks, milk and lunch of the day all fits perfectly); above the mini-fridge is a mini dishwasher (only daycare dishes so they never get lost ), above the dishwasher is a tiny oven (to toast, warm, bake, etc) and on top of the closet a microwave to warm thinks faster if needed. All this has been planned in order not to leave children unattended. I have in the closet a pull out counter when I do the servings. When we're all done it all goes to the dishwasher and last I close the closet and all is neat and clean and no stress.Visit pinterest you'll get lovely ideas. I also placed in the closed two baskets with clean bibs and face towels.

Try to check the tiny home ideas they have absolutely wonderful organizational ideas.

The more organized you are, the smoother your days go, leaving you time to really enjoy the children and doing activities with them. No worring what's for lunch every day. I hope it helps, good luck!!
