In the minds of many people, a bachelor is a person too busy with his work to spend precious minutes in the kitchen. The association is working that an unmarried man can only cook scrambled eggs, sausages and pasta. Or constantly uses the services of catering.
Pick your recipe
Regularly applying the rules of planning your own menu, you can eat fully during the week, spending only one evening a week at the stove. In a month or two, purchasing food and cooking will no longer be boring and overwhelming responsibilities.
Sample Shopping List
Paraphrasing a well-known saying, it turns out that "feeds one day a week." What and how much food is needed, where is it better to buy it? If you devote a day to your diet, then it is wiser to purchase the necessary set of products at wholesale bases, markets. You can also save. If the size of the wallet allows, then the nearest supermarket is quite suitable. Given that you will cook for one person, it is more profitable to take portioned dishes so that you do not throw out the excess later.
On average, about 2 kg of meat, including sausages and minced meat, is enough per person per week; 500 - 600 grams of cereals, by the way, it is more convenient to take them packaged in bags; 200 - 300 grams of pasta, about 2 kg of vegetables (carrots, onions, beets, garlic). Fortunately, you can now purchase vegetables individually. Therefore, two kilograms of each type is not worth buying. Do not ignore ready-made sauces, ketchup or mayonnaise, soy sauce or mustard.
Cooking for a week
Unlike purchasing, it is better to cook in large portions, give preference to those dishes that can be stored in the freezer for several days without compromising taste. For example, soup, meatballs, pastries, fried meat or fish, broth.
The real salvation and miracle technique is the oven. At your disposal at least one baking sheet, on which you can simultaneously put a dozen cutlets, a piece of meat or chicken, fish, potatoes. Of course, you don’t need to dump everything in one pile, you need to place each dish in a separate bowl. Put it all in the preheated oven. You have at least an hour to do what you love.
