My go-to garlic is crushed/minced jarred garlic from my local Asian stores. It's much finer than the minced garlic in regular stores and has a better flavor (and can often be found with the only preservative being citric acid). Very helpful video!

My wife and I have been together almost 12 years, married for almost 8. We intended to go to Italy for our honeymoon but never got to go, as life got in the way. We still dream of going one day, hopefully soon!

Julie, what a great video, and lots of great tips for one

Go for it

I'm slowly clearing out the freezers too be able too make up freezer meals that can be cooked in the air frier. I had one air frier and my brother gifted me one for my birthday niece can make meat in one and sides in the other one.

While I was at the store I picked up frozen mixed veggies and cheesy California blend steamer I will make grilled chicken tenders and a chicken mixed veggies and rice burrito bowls.

Yes I will start canning up my beans easy meals and having frozen rice bowls on hand for fast and easy meals.

Pick up where recipes start @ approx 5:15 timestamp ... and you can skip all the 'technical difficulties."

I love your videos

shallots make you feel like a real cook. :) I like to slice them up in ramen....and a poached egg!

Ive just found your excellent youtube channel! I love the tip about using small shallot onions and little cherry tomatoes - such a simple idea but it had never occurred to me until now! 😊

Great video however, just as a bit of constructive feedback, please could you drop the volume of the background music (or even better, lose it altogether) as it’s so distracting and makes it difficult to listen to you properly.

I know this is old, but so glad I ran across your page. It's just me and I've wasted so much food. I don't mind paying extra sometimes for small packaged precut items. I do buy frozen peppers and onions from Trader Joe's. Great video!

IMO, frozen corn, and frozen baby peas are much tastier and firmer than canned corn and peas.

In winter, look for Campari tomatoes. They’re larger than cherry tomatoes but smaller than your standard tomatoes. And, best of all, they actually taste good in the winter!

Hi Julie, thank you for your amazing recipes. I cook for one so I watch my food budget carefully. I buy frozen stir fry vegetables on special, always have frozen onion, fresh corn off the cob (steamed and frozen), spring onions (green onions) cut with herb scissors and frozen. I buy capsicums (peppers) on special, cut and freeze them so l always have vegetables on hand for a stir fry. For chicken (I don't eat meat) I will buy chicken breasts (or tenderloins) on special, cook them in an instant pot or airfryer and freeze them in meal size portions. I keep all my asian sauces in the fridge once opened and I do use crushed garlic (also buy that on special). I find I am able to do a wide range of meals so, as you said, I am not eating the same meal for 4 nights in a row. I only use spray oil as I find that goes much further and pouring oil from a bottle. I hope this helps your viewers, who are finding food so expensive now. If I want to extend the meal to 2 serves (I also have a sister who lives on her own opposite me) I will add noodles and this makes enough for the two of us. Please continue on with your great work. Best wishes for a wonderful New Year, Beth

Loved the tips!! Was the background music distracting to anyone besides me? Maybe it’s my ears!!

Love this idea

My new go to will be picking up smaller quantity of protein from the deli. I am so tired of making one dish and eating it twice a day for the week. I always end up throwing away the last two to three portions. Meanwhile by just working on my dinner for eight all week, other things have gone bad and need to be thrown out. I hope to avoid waste in the future.

I really think the key is frozen!!

I live alone and love to cook but I don’t really wasting food. I’m learning different ways of repurposing ingredients. Thank you for these great ideas!

Love them, so yummy

Ground up animals do not appeal to me.

You talk absolutely too much . Very smart, but get to the point.

Cant believe you dont have more followers.

Lots of plastic;(

Hi Julie! I love your channel. I also own a Breville Control freak. It is the most precise and best performing( also the most expensive)induction burner out there at the moment. However, this product is not aiming at home chefs. It's meant to be used by pro chefs in restaurants. For its price, home chefs expect a little more such as WiFi, recipe guidance, a touch screen like Thermomix's. Don't get me wrong. I like my Control Freak but wouldn't recommend it to people. I do think precision cooking is the future!! If I were them, I would keep an eye on these newer companies( KitchenAutomatique and Typhur), particularly KitchenAutomatique who's making a similar but more advanced product for home chefs.

Going to try this with some seitan as I have a family history of Cancer and need to avoid the igf-1 in meat---thanks for posting

Yayyyy for team germaphobes!!! 💜😋😘

I’m binging on your videos I’ve been alone now for over 8 months I hate frozen meals as much as I don’t like eating out. I’ve been in a bad situation Since being alone I use to make huge meals for lost of people and then I learned to freeze meals for my husband and myself Always doubling recipes for rainy days Now I’m it and I don’t eat much These videos are a pure inspiration to my cooking self Who has missed cooking just didn’t know how to do it for 1 person Thanks for these videos Shopping hacks are so helpful I wasted so much food the first few months I just quit trying Now I will try your recipes and get back to caring for myself in the kitchen Thanks again your new fan Sheila

Thanks I’m a newly widow Who cooked for family her whole life now Cooking for myself has been a challenge and buying groceries has been even harder Since I have a stocked cabinet for feeding Him and my Mom and neither of them with me no longer It’s been a challenge learning to not buy in bulk after over 30 something years buying and cooking and freezing in bulk Thanks for the tips! Sheila

Second video watched and another WINNER! Thanks for sharing. ❤️ Cilantro

Why am I just finding your channel? Not a fan of Ranch but I love Greek Yogurt and veggies. I’ll give yours a try. ❣️

Excellent advice for cooking for one.

Good video!

Looks yummy! I'm going to try these.

Great tips.. I'm cooking for one and find it hard to use all the groceries I buy before they spoil..

The other issue with cooking in small portions is the amount of packaging involved. Hard to avoid.

I don't know, there's an awful lot of one-time plastic on that table. Maybe a trip to the farmer's market would be more beneficial.

A lot of great tips. I've learned trial and error. I agree with the Frozen fruit, I've thrown out and wasted a lot can't eat a whole quart. Also the tip about shallots, cherry tomatoes and peppers, saves on a lot of waste.

My budget is so tight. Small packaging costs so much more than bigger containers. How much do you budget for groceries a week?

great tips ! I cook for 3

All of it

Ground turkey meat! 🙌

The pre packed/precut, single servings are more expensive and have so much extra packaging… I feel guilty using them. If I have time, I buy regular or even bulk items and divide them myself. Of course, I don’t always have the time or the patience for it. 🙄

You are so cool Julie Mar, love to watch you adlib.

Thanks Julie! This video is awesome! I'm not a bad cook, but I'm a lazy one and this is what I needed to hear
