Default Re: Cooking for 2.5 people

It's just hubby and me and one thing I do is use the slow cooker or Crock Pot. There are numerous sites out there with free recipes for the use of the Crock Pot. For example, if I do a beef roast, I make sure I put in extra carrots or potatoes and then use the leftovers for what we call "T.V. dinners" for our lunches. The nice thing about using a Crock Pot is you can buy cheaper cuts of meat and since it cooks all day, it's tender and juicy come supper time.
