I just joined today. I am a passionate cook that started out of necessity. Basically if I didn't learn to cook me and the kids would starve. You can only eat so much Frootloops and hotdogs. My wife hated cooking, so fast food was the daily staple. Looking forward to hearing and sharing with everyone.

Welcome to Spice Place Greg. I got into cooking much the same way. Dr. put me on a low sodium diet which means cooking mostly from scratch. The wife cooks but usually with mixes and pre done seasoning which I cannot have. Gotta admit I learned to love it.

fast food is great - you can duplicate just about any fast food chains recipes in your own kitchen - and it would be healthier

do the little ones like soups and stews? how about casseroles?

do you make any "make-ahead" meals to freeze and re-warm later?
