My mother was a good cook and I learned to cook at an early age. However, I really got out of the habit of cooking meals when Jeremy took over that job in 2008 when we went vegan. Now I don't really like cooking anymore! I have hundreds of recipes so I am trying to learn to cook again! I have been making soups and have 3 containers of different soups in the freezer because the recipes make so much! It is really hard cooking for one person!
I don't agree. I find that it's no different then cooking for four. I really like to batch cook and use leftovers as it's quite creative. I also do make just one portion of food because I either only have a few ingredients or just fancy a particular dish. The other day, I made ww spaghetti with roast aubergine in passata. It only took 30 mins to make and I didn't have any leftovers !!
However, many people don't like to cook. As you do need to eat, it certainly must be a chore to have to cook.
My cousin in the US, doesn't like to eat huge meals and loathes cooking. I asked her what she would do if she had to make a meal for one. She replied that she would have a sandwich (which she already does) for lunch and either a Cup of Soup or a scrambled egg for dinner.
