I have found that slow cookers and pressure cookers can save the day!

I get home at 10 to 5 and have dinner ready buy 5:30 on most nights...sometimes by 6.

I also make a menu each week and shop off of it. I look at the menu during the week to remind me of what extra prep I need to do--like thaw the chicken or soak the beans.

The crockpot is my best friend this time of year! Unfortunately most days we are gone for well over 12 hours, luckily it has a timer to shut off

Look into pressure cookers--They pay for themselves since it will keep you eating at home and healthier.

I don't understand how a pressure cooker works, so I am a bit incredulous to own one, I also live near Boston so that always comes to mind when I think about a pressure cooker, probably stupid but can't help it
