We live in a screen culture. There are TV screens in bars, waiting rooms, gas stations and even taxi cabs. Computers are in virtually every home and office. And then there's the little screen many of us carry around in our pockets or purses, never to leave home without. Bloomberg reports that people with access to smartphones or tablets spend an average of 2 hours and 57 minutes on them every single day. Startling, right?
If this fact-- on top of the possibility that they might be terrible for our health -- has scared you enough to put down the screen, we have a solution for you. We're not talking about giving up your devices cold turkey. In our society, that's nearly impossible. But we're up for putting them down for an hour each day to take the time to cook ourselves and our loved ones something delicious.
We've found 15 recipes that should inspire you to take the unplugging plunge. Each of them takes just 60 minutes, a reasonable amount of time to go screen-free. You've got this.
