Dorot Gardens Makes Cooking Easy

It's been over 1 1/2 years since I've returned to work. One of the challenges I've faced since returning to the workforce is finding the time to cook dinner for my Miracles of Christ. This includes going to the store to buy things in order to cook said dinner.

Wife is the Better Cook

Wife is the cook in the family. She can take things, put them together and throw it on the stove or in the oven. I need a recipe. I'm not talented enough to just go into a situation and know what there is and what can be done with them. I need a plan laid out before me and I need to follow that plan. I can be a rather creative person, but when it comes to being in the kitchen, I'm not that creative.

There are some things I can cook without recipes or guidance, but they're pretty basic. If you're coming over for dinner that's cooked by me without a cookbook, lower your expectations a little. I'm not saying what I cook is going to be bland. There will be some spices added to what I make. I love spicy food, but I'm not going to go through my spice drawer and just throw stuff in there to see what happens. My children's palates are limited enough.

Pre-Portioned Garlic and Herbs

With the Holidays fast approaching, saving time is something we would all like to do, especially if it's your turn to host the annual gathering.

Luckily for people like me, there's Dorot Gardens. The good people at Dorot Gardens have pre-portioned garlic and herbs. These ingredients have been measured for you and flash-frozen, so you can save time with these fresh additions to whatever meal you're cooking for your family. The pre-portioned cubes mean you'll be saving time the next time you're cooking dinner. With the Holidays fast approaching, saving time is something we would all like to do, especially if it's your turn to host the annual gathering.

Wife isn't the only one in the family who likes to cook. Lovie has also shown a talent for coming up with delicious creations. Most of our daughter's works are baking desserts, but she has also shown a skill for being able to cook dinner.

Lovie went to work on the meal one evening utilizing some of the spices from Dorot Gardens. Dinner that night was chicken cutlets with mashed potatoes and asparagus. For the chicken, Lovie added some of the chopped parley. For asparagus, she used crushed garlic. The Dorot Gardens chopped parsley was fresh. She was happy with how quickly it defrosted. The same went for the garlic. The pre-portioned pop out cubes were flavorful, and everyone was happy with how everything tasted.

Dinner was Great

Overall, the family was happy with dinner. The added herbs made the meal that much more flavorful. There is more to these frozen cubes than just convenience. Dorot also has chopped onions available in cubes. One package of sautéed glazed onions is equal to three chopped onions. Chopping onions is a necessary evil for me because a recipe will call for it. Unfortunately, I'm one of those people who suffer when I need to chop one, so it's great to see an option to just take a couple of cubes and be able to throw it into the pan. It's hard to get cooking done when you can't see anything.

There are plenty of helpful products and ingredients to try from Dorot Gardens. If you're out of ideas, you can sign up for a cooking class and try something new. I may try a smoothie recipe I found, maybe after a trip to the gym sometimes. I'm on the bike trying to work off whatever I ate or drank the night before. A fresh smoothie might help me replenish what I lose when I'm sweating.

People were happy. Lovie got to try new ingredients to cook with. The family loved dinner. It was convenient to have pre-portioned amounts to cook with, and it made clean-up that much easier. Thank you, Dorot Gardens for helping out with dinner. the Holidays are a time when help is needed in the kitchen most. 

Plenty of flavorful food for dinner.
