"ROASTED salsa—love this—put everything (tomatoes, jalapeños, garlic, onion) on a cookie sheet—roast until the tomato skins and onions have char (tuck garlic under onions so they don't burn and get bitter) and then put it all in the food processor. Yummy and adds a great depth of flavor." - thimes

"I try to make one or two batches of things every weekend that I portion into single servings and freeze so I have quite a variety of things to choose from according to my mood: several soups, chili, mini-meatloaves, salmon cakes, several pasta sauces. Also I freeze a variety of sausages singly (snack-size zip-locks are great for this) as well as chicken pieces, pork chops, and so on. ... It is amazing how much I have reduced takeout usage by doing all of this." - GretchenS on cooking for one

"Because of its relatively high smoke point, lard can be used to pop popcorn (instead of oil). Gives it a nice flavor (though I wouldn't drizzle it over the popped corn like butter)." - TomMeg1970
