Cook Two, Eat One, Freeze One
They’ve just said that this is a way to save money on your food on BBC Breakfast. Perhaps because of my planning background, I often do this, as that way when I get in late after evening football or the cinema, there is always something there. That is if I remember to get it out before I go out. Which of course I don’t always do!

I have always done this, and often with casseroles I have made a huge one, we have had what we wanted for a meal, then I saved the rest in individual portions for when there is only one person eating. Taking them out of the freezer does become a habit. We generally think “evening meal” at breakfast time.
It amazes me that more people dont do this. Both my daughter’s do because they are used to me doing it when they were children.
But sadly today, many people buy ready made food in the first place.
