Here are 3 steps for fun stress-free delicious dinner. If you're someone who struggles to get motivated to cook dinner, you're not going to be able to switch on your inner confident cook overnight. The thought of starting to cook more often can feel overwhelming and like a huge mountain to climb. However, the truth is that it doesn't have to feel like that and I am going to share with you the steps help you create the dinners you want to enjoy and reward yourself after a busy day at work. 1. Select and cook a recipe you would LOVE to eat. Cooking dinner should be as fun and pleasurable as possible. Eating food that you enjoy is part of that fun. 2. Write a list of ingredients you will need to cook your gorgeous new dinner. Before you place your online order or head out to the shops, check to see what you already have in your larder, fridge and freezer. Remove those from your shopping list. By reducing the list it will feel less overwhelming. 3. Plan which evening you're going to cook your new delicious healthy meal. Yes, I said plan. As boring as that sounds if you lack the motivation to cook or always end up choosing other alternatives, putting an hour aside in your diary or calendar helps you maintain accountability. There is more of a chance of you acting on it. It's easy to allow those negative voices in your head to talk you out of it, but planning it into your diary will help you stay motivated. What delicious dish would you like to cook and enjoy for dinner? #dinnertonight #eatbetter #selflovematters

SALT(Y). I’m sure all of you season your cooking with salt to improve its flavour. However, there are other ingredients that can flavour your dish with a subtly saltiness. If you need to balance out your dishes with some yummy saltiness, then you can't go wrong with these essentials. 🐟 ANCHOVIES - you may think of anchovies being an unwanted fishy ingredient but they can add so much flavour to simple dishes. Combined with garlic it gives you a great base for pasta sauces and salad dressings. 🫒 CAPERS and OLIVES- Chop them up or leave whole in marinades, sauces, added to salads, dressing, stews and pasta sauces. For more fantastic essential ingredients, download my free sexy dinnertime survival kit so you always make sure you have the most fabulous simple produce to create a dinner you really want to eat after a busy day. Plus recipes where I show you how to use them in fab quick dinner ideas. Link in bio #anchovies #capers #olives #easycookingathome #homecookingisthebest
