To those moms that make 3 meals every day of your life. How do you have time for it? Is it because our are a sahm?, left overs, freezing meals?
I try to cook as much as possible but everyday, I'm not sure how to do it or be home enough.
How do you do it?

Leftovers, sandwiches, canned soup, occasionally boxed Mac and cheese.
I don't cook at all unless i have to. We have cereal or yogurt for breakfast, leftovers for lunch and then df makes dinner when he gets home.
We buy frozen chicken nuggets and some other things for busy days, but usually wemake our own.
We try not to eat out/order in more than twice a month. If we are both in town for some reason then we will get pizza or Chinese.

We eat cereal, muffins, easy things a lot for breakfast. I also pre make breakfast burritos, pancakes, etc on Sundays enough for the week. We usually eat left overs for lunch from the night before or we will double the recipe and freeze half for another meal in a few weeks. We eat sandwiches a couple times a week also. I am a SAHM, but even before I was we ate at home a decent amount. It is all about planning ahead for every meal. If you don't have a plan or prep work done ahead of time it is really easy to just grab something while out. We only usually cheat on the weekends.

Crock pot is like a cook while you run errands. Many times I have made things at night, put in fridge or freezer for later usage in our meals. It takes time and a stocked up pantry in order to make it worth while. The temptation of eating out is everywhere so some people can not resist the easiness of that.
