It's what Catherine calls the LBD, or little black dress, of meals. Her pull-apart egg sandwiches are the perfect example. Much like Ree Drummond, who wrote a blurb for the book, Catherine creates step-by-step recipes that aren't overly complicated. We're talking crispy artichoke hearts with caesar dip, easy blender banana breakfast loaf, and grilled pork tenderloin with zippy chimichurri sauce. Once in that state of organizational kitchen bliss, it's easier to breeze through any recipe, including the straightforward ones Catherine is known for on her blog Weelicious. Now, it's time to "Execute" and cook the darn thing! "Prep" applies to figuring out your meals and groceries for the week. Next, "Organize" what's left so your kitchen is intuitive, keeping the things you use most close by and using clear food storage containers. "When it's visually appealing, everything feels much more under control."Ĭatherine's meal prep system has a handy acronym, "POPE." First, you "Purge" your entire kitchen-fridge, pantry, cookware, spices-of the items you don't need. "When it's disorganized, your mind and emotions are constantly in a state of chaos," Catherine says. Opening that Pandora's box can feel like a reflection of your self-worth-especially if you're a parent.
In this incredibly fast-paced world, fridges are often a jumbled mess of leftovers (from how many weeks ago?), fresh produce, and on-their-last-legs veggies. As Catherine says, the kitchen is where life happens. Instead, she shows how to give your kitchen a reset with her unique fridge and pantry organization tools. We all want to create the type of kitchen our family enjoys spending time in. If Marie Kondo is your organizing guru for life, Catherine McCord should be your equivalent for mealtime. Her latest cookbook, Meal Prep Magic, offers "time-saving" tips for "stress-free cooking," but she doesn't jump right in with delicious family meals. Read on to learn her tried and true kitchen organization tips, how she makes mealtime easy, and grab a delicious pull-apart egg sandwich recipe that will be your new "little black dress" of meals. Welcome to The Pioneer Woman Cookbook Club! This month, we're featuring Catherine McCord, Weelicious blog founder, food writer, and cookbook author of Meal Prep Magic.
