Homemade meals gang

One of the substances that are consumed by living beings is food; eating healthy food is very important for our survival. Part of my training right from childhood is to be satisfied with whatever we cook at home, the only thing we can eat outside are bread, biscuits and snacks but when it comes to feeding it's must be inside our house. So cooking had been part of my daily chores since childhood to the extent that we had a food roaster in my house that time.

Some people love cooking and don't like eating takeout meals at all, so they conveniently prepare their own meal at the comfort of their home while some people don't like entering the kitchen at all because they are too lazy to cook or they don't know how to cook.

I hardly eat out unless on rare occasions that I don't have a choice, I cook almost all my meals by myself. I'm learning how to prepare different types of dishes cause I still have difficulty in some areas but those dishes that I love the most, I prepare them very well to my satisfaction.

For me, it's economical to prepare your own meal, the amount of money spent on takeout is definitely higher than the amount you spend on home made meals. I can use the price for a plate of takeout meal to prepare a meal and still have left over. I purposely prepare some meals in excess so that I can put some portion in the fridge for future consumption.

Homemade meals are satisfactory if compared to takeouts. I don't just eat anything, I control whatever goes into my mouth. I'm always conscious of what I feed on that's why I monthly stock my house with necessary foodstuffs and ingredients so that I will have the ability to prepare whatever delicacies that pleases me at anytime.

Most times, it's the same food I ate for breakfast that I will eat during lunch time because I would have added the portion for my lunch to the quantity I will be cooking in the morning except during weekends. When I'm free during weekends, I put into practice any dish I learnt in the cause of the week because I believe practice makes perfect, so the outcome of my practice whether good or bad will result in my lunch for that day, I just prefer feeding myself.

Although eating out saves time but too much of it isn't healthy. Most of the ingredients various eateries and restaurants use to make attractive and tasty delicacies are not healthy which tends to have side effects on the body, so to prevent damaging my health all because of laziness I prefer to feed myself with what I know. So I'm a fan of homemade meals and I can't trade that with anything else.
