Cooking For One

I am not sure about everyone else. But this has been a challenge since my wife died. It is not that I cannot cook. I have always bought the groceries and cooked, did the dishes and all that. I am a pretty good cook for a number of cuisines

Ever since I lived by myself , I discovered buying groceries for one is very hard. Cooking every meal for one person is a hassle . Things would go bad before I could finish them . Eating out too much is way too costly

After weeks of trial and error, I ended deciding on a number of dishes . I would cook twenty servings of food at a time. They go in the freezer . Subsidized this routine with canned soup , “cooked” frozen dumplings and instant ramen. Then I could just nuke and eat and not think about groceries or cooking for a bit

How has everyone else managed this? I am just by myself , no kids.
