It happens to me fairly often. Usually, it’s with food I find less than appetizing, but it’s not bad by any means. I think the problem stems from the fact that I cooked for about 8 years for my job. There was a lot of standing and eating, tasting dishes as I went, cooking food that I was never going to eat while I was hungry, etc…

Does anyone else share this problem?

    I get what you’re saying. The entree gets frozen, but grains and veggies should be cooked when preparing it to eat. That sounds easy enough, heavy lifting is done and pasta/rice/veggies are really easy. Thanks for the tip!

      No problem!

      Personally I don’t do a full meal prep day, I just cook 3x more than I need and freeze the extra. By the time you’ve gone to the effort of cooking what you need, cooking a much bigger batch generally isn’t that much extra work. That way I only have to cook a few times a week yet get home cooked meals every day, and also get different things each day (not 7 days of lasagne).
