Ask ECAH What do you keep at home to satisfy takeaway cravings?
F33, living alone, and trying to cut down on food costs.
I earn well, but I’ve realized I spend way too much on food, especially takeaway and buying lunch. I like eating healthy, but when I get a craving for something savoury like a burger or a good dessert, I often end up ordering in because I’ve realised I don’t stock up on emergency snacks and I’m not the best cook.
I’d love to hear your go-to meals, snacks, or things you keep at home to satisfy cravings without resorting to takeaway. What are your staples?
