Thumbs up for figuring out how to eat healthy on a budget, but thumbs down for cooking all the food at the same time and eating frozen leftovers for 2 weeks.

- peteretep 15y agoI dunno man. I spend a Sunday a month just cooking a shit-ton of food and freezing it. Fish curry, chicken soup, chili, beef burgers... It is such a damn relief to come home after a long day and just have healthy, tasty food ready to go after 5 minutes of zapping it.
- jakejake 15y agoI hear ya, I'm sure it's good. For me I just think it would zap some of the joy out of cooking and eating. It's hard to beat freshly prepared food. Although to be honest I do eat a bit of Trader Joe's pre-prepared meals.
- waitwhat 15y agoThe labour-saving is huge (just think how much washing up this process saves alone), and there is nothing wrong with eating frozen food.
- LearnYouALisp 15y agoAbsolutely, and you don't even need to do it for every meal. Keep some fresh fruits and vegetables prepared and on hand. A roommate who was in petroleum engineering and taking heavy course loads would prepare a large bowl of food and wrap servings in plastic wrap to be frozen. I really need to do something like that.
