width=\"450\" height=\"414\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>A couple weeks ago, I set out to follow my menu as planned:&nbsp; <a href=\"http:\/\/food52.com\/recipes\/19635-black-bean-and-quinoa-veggie-burgers\">Black Bean and Quinoa Veggie Burgers<\/a> from Food52.&nbsp; But when as I began making the recipe, I realized that the patties were supposed to sit in the fridge for a few hours, if not longer.&nbsp; I\u2019d intentionally planned to make the dish on Sunday because I knew it\u2019d be a little more time intensive, but I didn\u2019t have that much time.&nbsp; So, I finished shaping the patties, then put them in the fridge to be cooked up on Monday and made something else instead.&nbsp; I was rather frustrated, but it wasn\u2019t the end of the world.<\/p>\n<p>It wouldn\u2019t have been that big a deal at all, except that isn\u2019t the first time I grossly underestimated the amount of time a recipe would take.&nbsp; So I\u2019m trying two new things to help me avoid that sort of chaos:<\/p>\n<p>1.&nbsp; Including extra-long cooking times to my menu plan.&nbsp; This doesn\u2019t apply to the majority of recipes I make, but when I try something new that takes longer than average (baking, time resting in the fridge, letting butter soften, etc.) I\u2019m making a note under the recipe name in my menu plan.&nbsp; It\u2019s not fancy (you can see an example on the 19th, below), but it gets the job done and forces me to look at the recipes I\u2019m planning to make before 5 pm on the evening I\u2019m supposed to be making them.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.relishments.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/menu-plan.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"menu plan\"

recipes and in my cookbooks.&nbsp; Clearly, not a revolutionary idea; I suspect most people put notes in the margins of their cookbooks.&nbsp; I\u2019d really fallen out of the habit though and at the rate I try new recipes, it\u2019s important that I write down anything I learned from the experience and how long it actually took.&nbsp; Sometimes I don\u2019t remember if I\u2019d made a recipe before and this should help me keep track better.&nbsp; <\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s to more effective planning!<\/p>\n<!-- Begin Yuzo --><div class='yuzo_related_post style-1'  data-version='5.12.89'><!--
