This is a community to share food pics, food ideas and questions. Basically anything to do with food. Every day there will be a post called Tucker Time for you to share pics or descriptions of your evening meal.
There's only 2 rules that I can think of right now
Rule 1: Don't ridicule
Rule 2: Don't be an arsehole
If you can think of anything else let me know. Cheers.

I tend to cook in batches of around 12 serves. Currently curried rice, taco beans, Dahl, roast veggies w/spicy peanut sauce. Once I've got enough Tupperware for another batch I make the next meal. My next meal is chicken and veg soup w/pasta, mostly because I've got things to use up.
E: Just finished the chicken veg pasta soup. I recently bought an instapot cheap on amazon (the 8L duo $153), it's been great for speeding up my meal prep. I tend to get distracted with how long some beans take to cook, the pot only works on a timer so it's great for set and forget.
Potatos - cooked potato doesn't freeze well. When I microwave potato to go with the taco beans and gravy beans, I'll do a few serves worth and store the cooked ones in the fridge. Similar with roast veggies, they don't thaw well. I do a batch and keep them in the fridge for a half hour re-roast to get them ready for dinner.
