Hello everyone,
I have always enjoyed cooking although never had to cook in large quanities which has now changed. I returned back to college a few years back to get me doctor of nursing practice and live in a medical society with about twenty other students. We had to let our cook go and had some problems finding a new one so I volunteered to do the cooking which I have been doing for a few weeks. The budget for food $350.00 a week and after all is said and done I mostly have to throw in a little of my own money. Classes start back on Monday and the time I have been having to cook has been alot more than I thought it would be.
I buy most of the food at a wholesale club and search through the weekly sales ads. I only cook four dinners a week although it seems like my whole day is consummed with shopping and cooking. Can someone please give my some ideas to streamline the cooking and some quanity cooking ideas so that I can start cooking in larger quanities and freezing things for future dinners?
Thanks for your time
