Getting in the habit of cooking simple meals, such as steamed veggies with beans and grain, will save you time and energy. Instead of adding complicated sauces, create a condiment tray for your table so that you and your family/guests can personalize every meal. Rotating trays, often called Lazy Susans, are perfect for making condiments visible and accessible.
