Discovered my weekend meal prep only takes 22 minutes if I skip the cutting board
I was timing my Sunday prep out of boredom last week and realized the chopping was eating up half the time. So I bought one of those hand crank vegetable choppers for $14 at a hardware store in Des Moines. Now I dump everything in raw, give it six cranks, and the onions and peppers come out uniform enough. Has anyone else found a weird kitchen shortcut that feels like cheating but actually works?

Oh man, that chopper changed my life too, I use it for everything except mushrooms now!

Garlic press for ginger. Just peel it and smash it through. Same effect as mincing but zero knife work. Also, frozen chopped onions from the store. Simpler than any gadget and honestly just as good for soups and stir fries.
