In a couple weeks, I am getting togther with 3 friends to do another round of Once A Month Cooking.
When we are finished, I'll blog the recipes and grocery list again -
In the meantime - here are the blog posts from my last round;
Getting Started
How it All Comes Together
How to Tally Your Recipes and Make a Grocery List
the next step is to just prepare everything in advance (all the chopping/dicing/peeling) and make your own "cooking show" - put all your ingredients within arms reach so you don't have to search for something and waste your valuable time!
Here is a blog I have also read that has great tips - http://littleredhen4.blogspot.com/2010/05/preparing-for-your-cook.html
Enjoy!!
