Benefits of Meal Planning | Our Top 6 Advantages in Planning Ahead Explained

Benefits of Meal Planning | Our Top 6 Advantages in Planning Ahead Explained

Meal planning is an important aspect of efficiently getting your meal done for the week. The best part is that it's customizable to your specific needs and there isn't a one size fits all, so there is always room for adjustment. In this episode we dive into some of the top benefits of why having a meal plan helps.


Our Top 6 Benefits of Meal Planning:

  1. Long Term Time Savings- the streamlined process allows for better time management over time and way less last-minute rushing.
  2. Its Super Cost Effective- it allows for strategic planning and shopping around a budget, as well as reducing food waste over time.
  3. Build Healthier Eating Habits- meals at home allow you to control what goes into them and the ability to take a hold on your portions.
  4. Reduce Weekly Stress- having a plan set in place creates less questions left up in the air which in turn lowers your stress trying to quickly figure things out last minute.
  5. Customizations Available- like stated above making your own meal plan allows you to adjust it to your needs, whether that means allergies, restrictions or specific health goals in mind.
  6. Promotes Family Time and Bonding- eating at home allows you to spend more time together around the table. It also opens up the availability to get your family involved in the planning, set up and cooking.

Meal planning may take some time to implement but the benefits speak for themselves as to whether it's worth it or not. If you want more tips on how to get set up, we have our free Confident Kichen Kickstart coming up or we have some great resources for meal planning help.

Kitchen Mishaps and Lessons Learned

Kitchen Mishaps and Lessons Learned

Working in professional kitchens is quite honestly pretty chaotic. Not only is everything hot, but it is very fast paced and easy to make mistakes. The goal is to have as few issues as possible and to catch them before they become major, but overall, there are bound to be some mishaps in the kitchen. In this episode we dive into some behind the scenes of when this has occurred, what we learned and how we handled it.


What kind of mishaps mainly occur?

  • Individual's Mistakes: This could be a number of things from trying to catch a falling knife, grabbing hot pans and burning yourself or forgetting ingredients in recipes. This could be the fault of your own or someone lacking communication. We cover a few of these throughout the episode.


  • Ingredients Missing: This could be needing to adjust for a restriction or allergy, missing ingredients because of unavailability or forgotten within ordering. This has definitely helped grow the ability to think and adjust quickly as needed so that it can be fixed quickly where no one would notice on the receiving end.


  • Equipment Mess Ups: This could be a piece of equipment malfunctioning or being broken and this can happen in a number of different ways in the kitchen. This could also be user error when using equipment which is what we cover in this episode.


Top Lessons from the Kitchen:

  1. Learn to Think on Your Feet
  2. Grow Skills in Adjusting Quickly
  3. Communication is Key

How to Implement Trying New Things | Ingredients, Recipes, and Foods

How to Implement Trying New Things | Ingredients, Recipes, and Foods

Part of building a diverse diet with variety in ingredients, recipes and meals it is inevitable that you will need to start trying out new things. This can be a challenge for your family if you have picky or more selective eaters or it can be challenging for yourself as it is new and different. In this episode we offer some insight and tips on getting others and you involved in the trying new things process.

Tips for Getting Kids to Try New Things:

  • Lead by example: our children look to us for what to do. If you want them to start adding in more to their normal diet, do it for yourself first. They are watching and they will be interested.
  • Get them involved: involving your kiddos lets them experience for themselves and gets them more excited to try. This could be through picking out items or meals or through having them cook with you.
  • Make it fun: kids learn through play so a easy way to get them interested is by making it fun and creative. Utilize easy snacks or meals that they can help cook.
  • Keep a positive outlook and response: this will not be easy, clean or organized. Kids are chaos, so expect a little of that in getting them in the kitchen with you so that you can lessen the stress of hoping things go super smoothly. As you do it more it will get easier.

Start with Familiar Flavors

  • Mix go-to recipes with new added ingredients when possible.
  • Trying new items with familiar favorites lets you dip your toes in to see what you like without the overwhelm of fully launching into massive change.
  • It may seem small but, baby steps are still steps forward.

Explore New Flavors with Learning about Different Cultures

  • This definitely brings in some of the fun side of food we talked about above.
  • Learning about different regions and cultures through their food makes it more immersive, interesting and it also helps you grow your skills in the kitchen while also getting you to try new recipes and flavors.

Try Shopping at a Farmers Market or a Specialty Grocery Store

  • Exploring your local farmers market will let you not only see some different produce to try but there are also tons of vendors selling new and exciting food items to try.
  • Doing this will also get you to see more of what is in season throughout the year.
  • Specialty grocery stores also generally have a tom more variety in things to explore and try out.

Always remember that when you are implementing new things into your meals that it is a change, and it takes time to get used to. Some things may take more time than others to be accepted as you try out new ingredients. It also takes more than one time of trying an ingredient before you truly know whether you like it or not (about 12 times for kids), so be patient with not only your family but also with yourself. And always remember to celebrate the wins of getting new variety added in, even if it doesn't go to plan.

How to Balance Convenience with Nutrition

How to Balance Convenience with Nutrition

We think we can all agree that there is a ton of information that can be found on food and some of it can be conflicting or confusing. Don't eat this or that, x is the healthiest, if you don't do it this way you will fail. We have heard a lot on convenience foods and their good or bad qualities. In this episode we talk about how to utilize convenience foods while also still being aware of what is going into your meal.

What are convenience foods?

  • Definition: food that has been further processed to make it easily consumable. It may be entirely prepared or a type of food that is convenient to eat in nature.
  • With so many choices the important things to know is that the selections are not all created equal when it comes to looking for something convenient, but also nutritious.

Why is reading labels important?

  • This allows you to take more ownership on what you are selecting by being mindful of what is in the item.
  • Look for items that are mostly whole ingredients and don't have a ton of unknown ingredients.
  • When in doubt do some research on the added ingredients in your favorite items to learn more of what is going into it.

Look for whole ingredients.

  • This could be precut produce, nuts, grains, rotisserie chicken, shellfish (already peeled) and so much more.
  • Using these items is a great way to have convenience but still get fresh and whole foods into your meals.

Why frozen fruits and veggies?

  • Because they are picked at the peak of season frozen fruits and veggies are at the top flavor wise and nutrition wise.
  • These can be super helpful to add to a meal when you may be pressed for time.

Canned items.

  • Canned items can still be nutritious and are a good added support items to your meals.
  • The "canned" taste can be removed through the cooking and seasoning process.
  • They can also be especially helpful with items such as beans that would usually take hours to cook.

Our Top Choices

  1. Frozen Fruits and Veggies
  2. Rotisserie Chicken
  3. Salad Kits (Sometimes)
  4. Canned Tomato Products and Beans
  5. Yellow Rice
  6. Frozen Meatballs (Kids Favorite)

Chef Bite: Meal Planning Missteps

Chef Bite: Meal Planning Missteps

When getting into meal planning it can be easy to get overwhelmed and/or to try to do too much at once. That's why we are here to help offer tips on meal planning that can help you avoid them or at least to talk through them as all of it is a learning experience.

In This Episode We:

Talk about some of the biggest meal planning missteps that happen when getting into planning out your meals.

  • Planning to do too much: This is especially easy to do if you are just starting out and try to throw every meal in (breakfast, snacks, lunch, dinner)
  • Over complicated meals: Keep things simple as you start and get comfortable with the basics. Add on more and different ingredients as you go.
  • Planning out too far in advance: This goes for planning your meals out weeks or months in advance or getting too much on ingredients too far ahead. This can cause a bit too much structure that you may feel can't be changed and it can cause ingredients to spoil and be wasted.
  • Freezing the wrong things: For some freezer meals may be an easy way to have meals on hand, but not all ingredients do well freezing. It can also cause an issue if you freeze too much at once because even in the freezer things only last so long.

We hope you enjoy this episode and as always, please let us know if you have any questions we can help answer. We are currently working on getting our meal plan site up and running and can't wait to share more of the details on it with you!

Growing Your Passion for Cooking

Growing Your Passion for Cooking

I think we can all agree that we don't just start out with a huge passion for everything. We find things that grow our interest and then begin to learn more about them. This same principal is very much how growing your passion cooking at home starts. It has to start somewhere and that may be working to be able to plan meals for your family.

In This Episode We:

Go over where to start with growing your passion for cooking. This Includes:

  • Learn the Basics: Start off simple and learn the techniques to create a base for your cooking skills.
  • Try New and Unique Ingredients: Start to explore different flavors to learn more once you have a base ground.
  • Research and Start Learning: To grow your knowledge and skills dive a bit deeper into learning more about cooking.
  • Get Others Involved: Whether it's family or friends, getting others involved (even just to hang out with you in the kitchen) can do wonders to staying motivated.

While not all of these steps have to be utilized, we would definitely recommend the first and last because they can really help out with keeping you motivated in the kitchen. Some of the other steps may be of more interest later on.

Boiling Point: The Difference Between a Home Cook and a Culinary Professional

Boiling Point: The Difference Between a Home Cook and a Culinary Professional

There is so much information on social media and the internet about food related topics, diet and recipes, but where is it coming from? What is the source? Is it coming from someone with a background in nutrition or the food industry or is it coming from an influencer or home cook? We have seen some recent videos, recipes and food information that has definitely inspired this episode.

In This Episode We:

  • Talk about some of the recent misinformation we have seen online.
  • Do a deep dive into what makes a culinary professional and how it is different from a home cook.
  • Offer some tips on how to do your own research to find who you are getting your information from.


While we are not saying that every home cook is spreading bad information, it is important to know where your information is coming from. As chefs we take everything we do very seriously, to ensure the safety of our clients. Because of this we also want to be able to offer insight into these topics here, so that we can shine a light on some of the muddled information that can be found online.

Knife Safety

Knife Safety

Knife safety is very important when working in a kitchen. Whether it's in a professional setting like we have had to use or in our own home kitchen we utilize safe knife practices everyday. During this podcast we go over some of the dos and don'ts of knife use that can be used in everyday life cooking in your own home.

In This Episode We Cover:

-Keeping Your Knife Sharp: efficiency, precision, and safety

-Honing vs Sharpening Your Knife: steel vs a whetstone

-Safety in the Kitchen

  • Knife Holds
  • Curling Your Fingers 
  • Never Catch a Falling Knife
  • Cutting Board Length
  • Communication: "Knife Behind or Behind"
  • Knife Storage

-Using the Right Knife for Each Job

  • Chef Knife: is a very versatile knife used for complex cuts, slicing, dicing and so much more.
  • Paring Knife: has a short handle and blade which makes it good for peeling fruits and vegetables or other small tasks.
  • Boning Knife: used for trimming around bones to get the most meat as possible.
  • Utility Knife: it's in between a paring knife and chef's knife so it is good for items that are too long for a paring knife.
  • Cleaver: good for cutting through big hard vegetables, large chunks of meat and some smaller bones.
  • Carving Knife: good for carving thick pieces of meat.
  • Filet Knife: has a thin and sharp blade, making it great for breaking down fish.
  • Bread Knife: a pretty self explanatory knife for slicing or cutting bread.

-Knife Covers: help protect your knives and yourself
