    Let’s do a dinner for one: Steak and a Veggie

    1. Prep time: Pull the steak, veggies, and a pan out (2 min), optionally trim fat (+2 min)

    2. Cook time: 10 min. Use this time to add seasonings to the meat/veggies and clean your cutting board if you trimmed fat. Use the same pan for the meat and the veggies.

    3. After eating cleanup: 5 min. Clean your 1 pan, 1 spatula, 1 fork, 1 knife, 1 plate. (even less time if you have a dishwasher)

    Total cooking and cleanup time: < 20 min


    I have no clue how you would take 30 min just to prep. Or, how you would take 30 min to pan-fry this steak (are you eating pure ash by then?!), and another 30 min to clean a pan, spatula, fork, knife, and plate.

    Furthermore, it would take even more time to go out and order a steak. You are saving time by cooking this steak yourself.
