Ok, @jakedduck1, I have to admit that I agree with you on the whole prep matter. I just don't like the whole chop, dice, etc. of veggies and stuff. (My hands get tired.) Many produce stores though will have carrots already shredded and some in my area even onions and celery that are diced, etc. Also, you can find some food prep gizmos at your local kitchen store that will do the chopping, dicing, etc for you in just a few seconds. You might look into it.
