Prep prep prep! I like to bake ahead of time and put that in the freezer to ease my workload the day of the big dinner or what have you.
Have all ingredients ready before you start cooking
My tip is to write everything down you will need for cooking and make sure you have everything before you start.
have all ingredients and recipes on hand. Prep as much as you can ahead of time.
Bacon in our stuffing is our favorite recipe. We prepare early, have everything and more ready to go so we can avoid any flubs!
Chop, measure and otherwise prepare items the day before your event.
I use prepackaged gravy!
Plan everything in advance!
I try to prep the night before and assign jobs to other members of the family.

clean as you go
Batch baking because it makes life so much easier and you have enough for the whole season!
Prepare things at least a day before the event. For those non-cooking stuff like cleaning home, try to get it done a couple of days before.
Do not leave anything until the last minute….prepare in advance.
