Whether for Italian meals or cocktail meatballs, form meatballs and drop into boiling water, one at a time. They'll cook quickly, keep their shape and the grease will drain into the water. Cook for a few minutes and voila -- meatballs to use or freeze on a cookie sheet. When frozen-bag 'em. Your next meal will be ready in minutes, no need to thaw, just drop needed amount into sauce and heat.

If you have more cookie dough than you do baking sheets, you can save time by getting batches ready on large pieces of parchment paper. When one batch comes out of the oven, simply slip the paper off the baking sheet and replace it with a new batch.

If you have a meat & potatoes, veggie & salad type of family, this is a good time saver. Put as many potatoes as you need in large pot, leave skins on.cover with water and put on top of potatoes a large piece of heavy duty aluminum foil. Put fresh ears of sweet corn on top of the foil and cover (if you don't have a lid large enough, place a second piece of foil on top of corn). When potatoes start cooking, corn will steam and both will be cooked at the same time, using the foil as a server & also keeping it hot till ready to eat. Mean while, your steak or hamburgers are cooking. Time it accordingly. Potatoes should take about 1/2 hr. Also, put your cut up salad in a large plastic bag and shake, with or without salad dressing. This saves time and dish washing. A delicious meal just like you were home, in about 45 minutes with prep. & cooking.

Freeze meat and marinades together in plastic zipper bags. When the meat thaws, you're ready to cook. You'll also use less marinade, so this is a money saving tip too!

Because most recipes call for salt and pepper you can save time by keeping a shaker filled with both. A ratio of 3/4 salt to 1/4 pepper is standard, but adjust to suit your personal tastes (I personally think that's too much salt).
