I’m having the same issue: ex left a couple years ago but I still had a couple teens to feed. Now both kids are away so it’s just me, and I have no idea how to cook

Portions. I wasn’t thinking and bought a gyro platter at Costco. I guess that’s my dinners for the week. The guy at Costco was trying to sell me on the executive membership based on how much I’ve spent this year: nope, maybe I shouldn’t even keep the membership
Before Family, I had been in a habit of going to a farmers market, then making a big salad, big pasta salad, and big fruit salad for the week. Just add protein and you have a meal. That might be a good idea to return to
