    I would suggest getting a slow cooker.

    You can cook up meals in there to eat and freeze. Currys, stews, the list is endless. Have a look on the old style recipe index... Click here

    Right, ok, so curry, sheperds pie (yum!!)....

    Next question would be, surely it's cheaper to buy this already made?

    LOL seriously though. I go buy it. Individual portion, say £1.50.

    I make it, thats buying all the ingredients (and more than I need), the oven eating electric, couple of hobs eating electric, and I create myself a whole load of washing up.

    Thats my whole problem with it. Still wanna give it a try, but just an observation more than anything else. It should, afterall, taste better home made, but thats kinda a touchy subject with me.
