About Restaurant Dropout
As an ex-restaurant cook (ahem a restaurant dropout), I am here to help you tackle your kitchen like a pro—efficiently and promptly while never compromising quality.
Think of your home kitchen as a restaurant; you are the line cook. In your “restaurant,” you have 5 dishes on the menu that change (almost) weekly—one grocery haul will result in 5 different dishes for the week. Several ingredients get used more than once, and if you’re up for it, these ingredients can be prepped ahead of time so that when it comes time to make the dish…well, all you have to do is toss it together, maybe heat something up, and voila: dinner is served in a matter of minutes.
Restaurant Dropout simplifies dinnertime by providing dinner plans, grocery lists, and prep lists to save you time.
But let me be clear: this isn’t traditional meal prep—you won’t be eating the same dinner five days in a row.
