Tips for Cooking Easy and Delicious Meals

• Use fresh ingredients whenever possible. Fresh herbs, vegetables, and quality proteins make a big difference in flavor.

• Prep ahead by chopping vegetables or marinating proteins the night before. This saves time during busy days.

• Keep pantry staples stocked like olive oil, garlic, spices, and canned tomatoes. They help you whip up meals quickly.

• Experiment with seasoning to suit your taste. Don’t be afraid to add a pinch of chili flakes or a squeeze of lemon juice to brighten dishes.

• Invest in simple kitchen tools such as a good knife, cutting board, and non-stick skillet to make cooking easier and more enjoyable.
