Everything I have has to be possible to cook in 45mins as that is the amount of time my carer has. Frozen roast potatoes have to be defrosted as otherwise take too long.

I actually do ok. I have sausage and beans tomorrow, pie and beans Thursday, chicken breast and veg , lamb chops, pork chops, gammon steaks. If I want roast potatoes I just have to remember to take them out the freezer. Better than when I was cooking. I lived on ready meals.

It is difficult cooking for one. Every supermarket delivery I am separating things into single portions for the freezer. Craving a roast beef dinner but just not in for one. Last proper roast I had was Christmas Day. My neighbour brought me in a plate. Goose, lamb, roast pots, pigs in blankets, lots of veg, Yorkshire pudding and pavlova for desert. As I can’t get out not as though I can go to a restaurant. If none of my neighbours offer this year it will be fillet steak.

Not exactly salad weather but always chocolate cake weather.

Same here, the neighbours gave me Christmas dinner. I’ve got round the roast-dinner craving (yes, buying a joint of meat for one person isn’t practical) by buying beef-in-gravy ready-meals and adding frozen roast potatoes and fresh veg. Not quite the same, but edible. I do try and cook for myself but mostly I stick to salads and soup all week, casserole over the weekend.

I invested in an air fryer now considering a slow cooker. Carer could put it on at lunch time.

I use the slow cooker at the weekends. I’ve thought about an air fryer, but I just don’t eat that many hot meals, and when I do, it usually involves toast!

If you do decide on an air fryer get one with 2 drawers that will finish at same time. Mine has been a godsend. Sausages and bacon come out lovely. Also put croissants in for 3 mins and they are delicious. I occasionally get a croissant with my weekly bread delivery. A local company will deliver odds and ends to your door. I get a sliced bakery loaf delivered every Wednesday. Split in half and put half in freezer so not eating stale bread at end of week. They don’t even charge delivery.

Thanks; good tips. Haven’t had a croissant for ages; might get some now!
