Usually though I find that ingredients themselves tend to come in packaging to feed multiple people. Some of it you can freeze, or what I usually do is use half of something and then put the rest in the fridge and try to work it into my next dinner/meal


YES. I love allrecipes for that reason (because i'm usually cooking for just me.)

I also freeze extra meat portions like you. It makes cooking so much easier. Example: One day I made chicken spaghetti bake using one half of a chicken breast 4 pack, then used the remaining 2 in homemade chicken noodle soup.

Since this is a recipe thread, I guess I'll post my current fave:

http://allrecipes.com//Recipe/chicke...le/Detail.aspx

Nothing special, but it was quick and tasty. Allrecipes has been my savior since I started actually trying to cook (I was one of those kids who didn't really cook in college.) I really didn't start cooking til I got my own place in grad school.
