re: OT bachelors; how often do you cook?

1-2 times a week but in bulk. I'll cook several chicken breasts/pork chops/fish filets at a time along with enough rice/potatoes for the week and throw in some sautéed veggies or salad. Much more cost effective for me than eating out, although not too diverse. That's in addition to sandwiches and typical breakfast food.

I've crunched the numbers before just for the hell of it and it comes out to like $3 per meal for dinner/lunch which are pretty interchangeable for me and then obviously less than that for breakfast.
