Choose one simple dish from a cuisine you rarely cook, find the few ingredients, and make it once. The world on a weeknight.
45 min

Eggs, a can of beans, frozen vegetables, something to toast, something to grate. A plan for the evenings when there is nothing left.
15 min
- Water before the first cup
A glass of water first thing, before the tea or coffee. One small habit at the start of the day, and a glass by the kettle to remind you.
2 min
- Write down one family recipe
The dish someone always made, never written down. Ask them, cook it with them if you can, and keep it on paper.
30 min
- Make mealtimes easier for someone you care for
Smaller plates, colours that stand out, food they can pick up, and time. A few changes that can help someone eat more comfortably.
20 min
- Add one colour to the plate
No new recipe, no new rules: add one vegetable or fruit to a meal you already eat. A handful of spinach, a tomato, some frozen peas.
5 min
- A week of meals on one card
Fifteen minutes on the weekend: seven dinners on one card, one shopping list, and no more 'what is for dinner' at six o'clock.
15 min
Try it with someone
Cook twice,give one.
