How many pots and pans do you use to prepare dinner?  |
|
Most days I like to cook simple one pot dishes, like tacos and sloppy joes. With those recipes, you can brown the beef and then drain it, before adding the remaining ingredients to the same pan. Just works out better that way with my limited schedule.
But, sometimes I'll make things complicated for myself and try cooking a specialty recipe. And, then I will end up with four or five pots and pans and assorted bowls to wash at the end of the night. It turns into a real mess. So, I try to keep things simple and confine my cooking to just one pot.
Do you prefer to prepare elaborate dinners that use multiple pots and pans? Or, do you go for one-pot dinners that require less clean up?

1. melissaruth1 (3531) | 3 years ago | Well my husband lost a bet and has to do dishes for 3 months, so if you ask him way too many lol. I try to use only two if I can get away with it. It is true though, that I am like a tornadoe in the kitchen, always making a huge mess.

2. Cognition (162) | 3 years ago | As I'm a student, a tend to try to make something simple. So I usually use one pan for potatoes or rice, another pan for frozen vegetables, and a frying pan for meat. I could probably get away with fewer pans if I simplified my meals a bit, but I'm not sure if I could let any part of my meal go;)

3. marciaj (804) | 3 years ago | I do enjoy cooking elaborate meals sometimes, but my favorites are one dish meals like chili, lasagne, mac and cheese. I also like doing au gratin potatoes and add chicken right in with it to make it a one dish meal. I prefer to spend more time enjoying the meal than cleaning up after it.

4. sunshine4 (6288) | 3 years ago | I am big on one pot dinners. I have a nesco cooker and it is used at least 3 times a week. It is like a crockpot, but I like it so much better! Last night it was pizza subs for dinner, so that was very easy. Tonight is tacos, tomorrow chicken in the nesco. I am not one to use many pots and pans to make a dinner~ too much clean up.

6. cynddvs (2284) | 3 years ago | I normally just use one to two pots when cooking. I like to try to keep things as simple as possible. The most I'll use is three and that's when I'm baking something along with what I'm cooking on the stove.

| 10. sahmmommy (45) | 3 years ago | Through the week I generally use 2 pans-one for the main dish and one for the side. On weekends when my husband is home to help with our daughter, I like to experiment with new recipes so it's nothing for me to dirty up a whole sink full of dishes before I'm done.
