Convenient food.

I just had an Asda good for you spaghetti with tomato & mozzarella sauce . packet meal...I ripped it open, tossed it in a bowl added boiling water and nuked it for 4 minutes and it was bliddy delicious...I'd have it again!

Do you use packet stuff or are all your meals cooked from scratch?

I / We, they we live, 23 of us in an 'ex' hotel in Switzerland are lucky enough to make everything from scratch, including sausages, (great fun for the kids!) and burgers. We only eat organic meat flown in once a month from Scotland, and organic fruit and vegetables from our own farms in Devon, along with any dairy we need.

I make everything from scratch, even hamburgers!!

You cannot beat the freshness of the food and you know what's gone into it!!

Although I love cooking (veggie), I'm often out of the house for some 10-12 hours a day (commuting as well as evening classes), so I simply don't have time to cook everything from scratch. What I tend to do is go to either the greengrocer's shop on a Saturday morning or the Farmer's Market on a Sunday morning and then spend the rest of that day cooking and freezing meals for the following week. However, sometimes life gets in the way of the cooking so I make sure I always have some sort of ready meal or two in the freezer (eg cauli cheese or pasta bake) and a few cans of veggie curries (ASDA do a great range) and Baxter's soups in the larder.

sandrajo, I live on my own so most of the time, a ready meal hits the spot. Why spend an hour cooking a fab pasta 'n' sauce meal for one when you can buy the same in Tesco that is cooked in 10 mins?

Don't get me wrong, sometime I do cook for myself, honest!

There is NOTHING like home made food. Convenience food will never hit the right spot for me.
