I have this argument with my wife often. I like to cook, and for me cooking is more than taking frozen meatballs and dumping them into a pan full of jar pasta sauce. I would rather make the sauce, maybe have some meatballs made in advance. My wife seems to think that pre-made stuff or mixes are the way to go. I would rather just make pancakes scratch, which isn’t hard, where she would rather I just open the mix, add water, and make the food. But I do agree that having a frozen lasagna is better than taking the full effort when I just want to get dinner going. So where are your eat the pre-made vs make it from scratch?
Last month i made two lasagnas in one day and had nine of it. I ch but them up in pieces and froze them into 24 pieces. Now we have home made lasagna for those days where we dont feel like k cooking dinner. It really does not need to take too much time and if you enjoy it, there is no need to not do it.
