I like cooking something great, especially when I have people over or just when I feel like eating something really good but I hate everyday cooking. It's so boring. The processed foods you can just throw in the oven for 30-40 mins are getting so good nowadays that the reason I don't cook that much is that it's just so much easier not to. Why spend hours to prepare a chicken pot pie when you can just buy a frozen one for 8$? Same goes for shepherd's pie and any number of others.
- djm 17y agoI feel like eating something really good but I hate everyday cooking Me too, but thats why god (or somebody godlike) invented freezers. The secret to eating good food every day if you don't like to spend time cooking is just to make stuff in big batches and preserve it. Today for instance I spent 30 minutes or so making possibly the most delicious stew man has ever tasted. I made enough for eight servings and am freezing most of it. It would have taken me almost as long just to make one serving. People make plenty of excuses about why they can't cook but it's rarely true.
- smokinn 17y agoI do that a lot too. I have a lot of spicy chili in my freezer along with a batch of rigatoni that I use mostly for lunches. I also have a lot of small portions of meat (french steak, pork chops, etc) that I just fry up with potatoes or occasionally bake in a shake'n'bakeish spice mix. I do cook a lot but I eat a lot of the prepared stuff too, just because it's good and it's easy.
