    Hello there

    older couple in the kitchen cooking together. this …

    Life looks different than it did not too long ago. You’re still working full-time, though maybe your co-workers are quite a bit younger. Perhaps you’re looking to retire, or have already taken the plunge.

    You used to cook a lot when the kids were home, but now they’re off doing life. It’s just you and your spouse.

    As time goes on, you find that just don’t have the energy to do what you used to do.  You still have a desire for good food, but you’d rather have short cuts to create dishes that are similar to the dishes that you used to prepare and love.

    You want to spend time with family and friends when your time allows, but it’s challenging with work and less energy than you used to have. At this stage in life, keeping things simple is the name of the game.

    Additionally, you’re finding more often than not, that you and your partner can’t or don’t want to eat the same things, whether due to dietary restrictions or personal preferences or just the changes that one undergoes with time. 

    You try to cook things & freeze in individual portions but often that takes more time than you have.

    And the grocery store? Wow!

    Prices have gone up and food has become more complicated than it ever was.

    At Good Cheap Eat we want to help you make the most of what you have — your time, your money, and your energy!
