Hello Eileen, I am still planning meals for two, but I have been trying to make my time use more effective. A couple of things I have done lately in clude making a large meatloves, freezing one or making them into single servings; then I cooked just what we would eat for the evening. Another method I am working on is to brown meat and onion in preparation for making chili, spaghetti sauce or a casserole. I have the meat frozen but ready for whatever meal I choose to create. Hope this helps a bit.

Hi Deb, Thanks for the welcome. I know food can be frozen, but to me a lot of times it just loses something once its cooked, frozen and then reheated.I’ll keep it in mind though.

My husband's aunt used to cook a big amount of something and freeze it or label it and have it several nights. Not saying that's always a good idea, but she did it. Me, I'd probably just eat it all a little at a night as I like leftovers--or I should say: love left overs.

Hello All, I recently subscribed to this list. I’m a decent cook, and fair reasonably well in the kitchen. I’ve been totally blind for quite some time I signed up for this group hoping to find some recipies & techniques for adapting recipies for 1 person. My husband recently passed away and I don’t want to prepare food that will leave me with a weeks worth of all the same dinners. Most of the dishes I am used to making would be enough for 2 people for 2-3 nights. Looking forward to reading more posts from the list.
