[quote=Anonymous]20-30 is my gold standard. Constantly moving, but almost always time to set the table and pour some wine and check email for 5 minutes.

I do a lot of:

Put on pasta water, brown frozen "meat"balls and onions, add sauce and spices, add pasta to water, make salad while pasta cooks. 
SPAGHETTI AND MEATBALLS

Start rice cooker. 
Stove top beans (I use cans of black beans with a seasoning I blend myself, so I don't have to grab 10 jars every time I make beans...I only add water or stock and some tomato paste). 
Chop lettuce, tomato, onion, cilantro, peppers, jalapenos. Maybe sauté the peppers and onions and add frozen or fresh corn. 
Set out cheese, sour cream, salsas. 
Make guac or set our premade or slice avocados. 
Nuke tortillas or set out chips. 
BEANS AND RICE (or if I cook meat, TACOS!...maybe no rice in that case).

Start rice cooker. Throw broccoli or something similar in oven to roast. Usually toss with gochijang.
Pan fry tofu and ginger and garlic and soy and brown sugar and fish sauce. 
Dice cucumbers, peppers, carrots. Maybe red cabbage, corn, fried onions. 
Set out condiments (chili sauce, sriracha, soy, chopped green onions and cilantro). 
RICE BOWLS

Throw frozen pizzas into oven (top with additional cheese, pepperoni, jalapeños, whatever). 
Make salad and dressing.
