And that's why my "necessary life skill" cooking lifehack is to just know that if you cook something big enough, it'll last you enough portions for two or three days without that much extra cooking work. And you'll only have to clean the cooking pot half (or one third) of the time.

Thats why Im having waffles tonight
Idc just give me big enough sink and Space to unload dishes on and im all good
Those numbers are off. It takes me about half an hour to cook a meal. I clean while things are cooking if I can. And it takes me about the same time to eat. I get that it's a joke, but it's entirely unrealistic unless you're doing things very wrong.
Cooking a steak takes 5 minutes. You make a side salad while it's frying. Everything goes into the dishwasher in a few more minutes. Not sure what your problem is...
A dishwasher not my hands? What is this wild technology you speak of?
Edit, I was attempting humor.. gosh, not everyone has a fuckin dishwashing machine..
My solution is just to act like I'm cooking for 12 people, and have leftovers for the rest of the week.
Yep I batch cook too, I make 4 portions then eat 2 and freeze 2. Eating over 2 days obvs
Yup, I'm doing the same. Cooking 4 portions, then eating them all while crying
I cook four portions, my husband has a portion, I have one too, my son then eats two portions and says he's still hungry.
You can't meal prep with pre-teens/teens in the house. This kid will eat leftover roast chicken for breakfast, like the whole damn thing.
I cry while grocery shopping and pray to saint peanut butter for help
You forgot the 40+ hours of work a week just to afford the ingridients.
Working many of the hours to afford a car. So that you can get to/from work.
You forgot breathing in and out 24/7 to stay alive to get to your soul-sucking job.
Lucky you! I've got a simple solution, only use single use plastic, then all you have to do is just put a big plastic bag over your table and when you're done eating you just pick up the bag, close it all up and throw it away and that way you just leave the problem to your grandchildren and they'll die from climate change.
climate change AND microplastics in their food
The one who cooks shouldn't be the one to clean unless, of course, you live alone.
