Cooking for 1 ideas

in TTC After a Loss

DH is gone this week and usually does our cooking. I'm super spoiled now, but I did teach him all he knows, so I'm debating being lazy vs. proving I've still got it this week. What do you guys do for meals when you're cooking for one?

I'm hoping this post will be the motivation I need to get off the couch, shower, and get my butt to the grocery store...

    I'm a pasta-holic so when I'm cooking for just me, I usually cook up a pasta, then each night do something different.

    Mon: Spaghetti w/ meatballs

    Tues: Spaghetti noodles with alfredo sauce and chicken.. ect.

    Thanks ladies... this post and my growling tummy have motivated me to get moving. Off to the grocery store. The pasta and chicken advice sounds like a good plan.

    Twistedmetal... eggs w/ salami and cheese on rye is a new one for me. Very interesting!
