    Great question! To save energy while cooking, try these tips: use lids to keep heat in, cook multiple dishes at once, and opt for smaller pots and pans. Also, don’t forget to preheat your oven only when needed! Little changes can make a big difference. 🌟

      Use a lid when cooking to trap heat and cook food faster. I think it helps cut down on energy. Opt for smaller pots or pans to match the burner size. Though it might seem minor, it can make a difference hehe .​​

        Smaller Appliances consider using a slow cooker, microwave, or toaster oven for smaller meals instead of heating the whole oven.​

            Totally agree! 🫢 Using the right lid and matching the pot to the burner is low-key geniusβ€”seriously saves energy and gets food done quicker! Thanks for the awesome tip, every little bit adds up, right? 😊

              Oh yeah, totally! Small appliances like the microwave or toaster oven are awesome for quick meals without heating up the whole kitchen – super clutch when you just need to whip up something fast! Appreciate the suggestion, always love those handy kitchen hacks 😎
