[quote=Anonymous]tips for faster meal prep:

- get your knives sharpened
- declutter your fridge and pantry so you can find things
- prep in bulk... prep one meal for this week and one for two weeks from now
- buy veggies and fruit prechopped
- set out all your utensils and ingredients ahead of time
- use measuring cups and chopping boards with a plan -- do vegetables first, then raw chicken so you don't have to wash between uses
- use a food processor to chop instead of a knife
- use a scrap bowl for scraps instead of walking back and forth to the garbage
- use time saving tools -- kitchen shears, garlic press, lemon squeezer

- kale, swiss chard, and herb stripper:  https://www.amazon.com/Chefn-LooseLeaf-Collard-Greens-Stripper/dp/B00QWNRGS8/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1535977850&sr=8-2&keywords=herb+deleafer&dpID=31yE0PoLRHL&preST=_SX300_QL70_&dpSrc=srch

- use a food scale instead of measuring cups and recipes by grams or ounces, not T and t and c
- do as much prep as possible in the oven as opposed to stovetop.  Needs less of your attention
