If you’re a mom with a house full of hungry people, you already know: they eat all day long.
And if you’re trying to cook more from scratch - whether to save money, reduce processed foods, or just feed your family real meals - you’ve probably hit that point where it feels overwhelming to keep up.
In this episode, I’m sharing exactly what I cook from scratch every single week. This isn’t a big batch freezer meal plan or a Pinterest-worthy prep system. These are the simple things that fill in the gaps without taking tons of time or energy.
You’ll hear:
-
The 5 scratch-cooked staples I make every week (in under 10 minutes of active time each)
-
How I build in leftovers during the week to make lunches easier
-
Why this approach supports both independence and connection at home
-
What it looks like to simplify food as part of the normalizing phase on the 5-step path from surviving to thriving.
If cooking from scratch feels impossible or you’re just tired of constantly figuring out what to feed everyone next, this episode is full of ideas to make it feel more doable and less draining.
