Basics of a Meal Plan

First, we cover the basics of Meal Planning

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Make it a habit to add smaller quantities of sugar or salt to your food and taste it with a spoon before adding more
  • Also, check if the food is cooked by tasting a spoonful to make sure you don't overheat/burn your food.
  • Keep the flame low
  • A video tutorial is always better than a book, this way you know what to add first, and can visibly see if the amount of water and ingredients look similar in quantity.
