TL;DR
Use a plastic sheet protector and whiteboard marker to check off ingredients and steps that you have completed.
This week, try this strategy out with a simple recipe. Take a picture of your finished checklist and share it with me on Facebook or twitter at @ill_chef
Tip Expanded
Several weeks ago, I posted that Checklists are your Friend, but not everyone can or want to use a phone when cooking. Some people may not be able to use a phone because it causes migraines or they find it easier to read on paper than on a phone. Others don’t want to use a phone because they just prefer paper.
Well, here’s how to still use checklists to help you complete each step of the recipe. All you need are plastic sheet protectors and a whiteboard marker. You’re going to want to get as thin of a whiteboard marker or else you will probably end up crossing out multiple steps or ingredients. Otherwise, you will want to make your text larger when you print out the recipe.
First, you print out your recipe on paper; then, you put it into a plastic sheet protector. Now, as you finish the different steps of the recipe, cross it off with your whiteboard marker. Do the same for the ingredients.
Call to Action
This week, find a recipe that you think you can do. Put it into a plastic sheet protector and as you put in the ingredients and finish the steps, cross them off. Take a picture of your finished checklist and share it with me on Facebook or twitter at @ill_chef
