We've been 'Once a Month Cookers' for almost 8 years now. I swear by it, though my wife is starting to waver.
"eating the same meal a few days in a row" has never come into it. We batch cook 6 different meals by 4 portions = 24 dinners, and mark the calendar so we mix them up but don't have 3 quesadillas left at the end.
- makerops 13y agoEven once a week cooking can save a ton of time, and you can pump out a lot of food in an hour or so if you plan correctly.

- JacobAldridge 13y agoI'm not sure if we'll get to this point, though it interests me. We originally started as a cost-saving measure (I took a pay cut to move to a better city; mortgage; and a wife-to-be still at university), and my beautiful wife actually enjoys cooking so we'll outsource other time sinks long before food preparation.
- eru 13y agoOh, if you enjoy cooking, then by all means do it yourself. But otherwise, you might want to do it in the most efficient manner possible (or let somebody else whose time you are paying for do it efficiently).
