## _The worst thing about preparing meals is the complete chaos that is left in the kitchen when you’re done._

There are pots and pans everywhere! Who’s gonna clean that up? Nope, not me.

I have to admit, this really puts me off cooking — knowing there’s a a lot of dishes
to clean afterward. I have things to do and there is wine to drink!

I can’t be wasting time putting together 5,000 different elements only to leave 
3 hours of washing up as a reward.

> So if you’re anything like me, and adore simplicity but still want that va-va-
> voom in taste, check out these 50 one-pot meals from the Stay At Home Mum team.

With some recipes being freezer-friendly, freezing leftovers for those nights when
you really don’t feel like cooking is an added bonus! You can just whip some homecooked
goodness out and reheat.

Family fed, you’ve had a night off, and you know what you’re feeding them is packed
full of flavour and good for them too..
