One of the biggest things my clients struggle with is cooking. Even the most seasoned home cooks (pun intended!) struggle to find the time and energy to cook a full meal at dinnertime, resulting in another night of takeout. In this episode, the team of chefs at To Taste are joining us to share their best cooking tips to reduce the stress you feel when it’s time to shop and cook for your daily meals. From what to keep in your kitchen to how to cook enough for just one person, we cover everything that’s holding you back from enjoying the cooking process. To Taste was founded to bridge the gap between culinary professionals and nutrition experts to teach consumers the skills and recipes to cook meals that are nutritious and delicious. The team joining us in this episode includes Co-Founders Chef Lindsey Schoenfeld and Chef Vahista Ussery, RDN, and Lexi Cole, RD, CCMS.  Connect with the To Taste Team!

Put on music that you like, watch a TV show, or listen to a podcast while you’re cooking. This will help make it a fun and relaxing experience. Stock up on staple ingredients you know you’ll always need. Different vinegars for flavor, oils, seasonings, quick-cooking grains like quinoa, and canned beans or chickpeas are all great to have on hand so you can cook a yummy, fast, and nutritious meal in a pinch. If knowing when foods are “done” stresses you out, invest in a meat thermometer. It’s easy to google the temperature meats need to be cooked to, and you can monitor whether your meat is cooked thoroughly with the thermometer.   Hi!
