Aretha Franklin for a Sunday Kitchen Reset

Respect, Think, and a week of meal prep. The Queen of Soul’s catalog still turns a Sunday kitchen reset into a celebration.

Meal prep goes faster with the Queen of Soul. Aretha Franklin passed in 2018, but her records still fill a kitchen like nothing else.

Start with the classics

  • "Respect" while you clear the counters
  • "Think" chopping vegetables
  • "(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman" while things simmer
  • "Chain of Fools" for dishes

Go deeper

Put on Amazing Grace her live gospel album, while you portion lunches. It is one of the best-selling gospel records ever made and a reminder of what her voice could do.

The point

Sunday prep is a gift to Monday-you. Her music makes it feel like a celebration rather than a chore.
