i can't meal prep. if i eat the same thing for more than 2 days in a row I want to throw it up.
i cook 3-5 times a week. i enjoy cooking so it's fun for me.
when i was in my 20s i'd cook 7-12 times a week, including lunches. but it was always just a variation of chicken, veggies, and rice, since i could not afford anything nicer back then nor could i afford to eat out.
You freeze it so you get more of a mix of stuff.
i grew up eating frozen and canned food for like every meal.
i refuse to ever do that again.
fresh food is amazing. i never had it on a regular basis until i was a college student. it blew my mind that vegetables could taste good if they weren't a soggy mess.
I freeze home cooked Bolognese, stroganoff, chill con carne, curry, casseroles etc. they all reheat such that you would never know it was frozen.
Some other dishes with rice or pasta in them when frozen lose some of their texture, but taste great still. Some stuff (chicken cassoulet from this weekend for example) is just annoying to defrost but is fine once done.
cool. sounds gross and unhealthy af.
i'm not interested in dying of a heart disease like my father. your food sounds like just the horrible shit my mother cooked.
i eat whole grains, lean meats, and vegetables.
I have a veg& lentil curry in there currently if that counts? Not sure why you think my stuff is unhealthy?
because if i ate that stuff i'd die from heart disease.
