I chuck it in a pan then shove it down my throat. My mother wasn't a good cook so im not picky.

Moms and women love to whine about how hard and time-consuming cooking is. The reality is it's very easy. And it's very satisfying for a man who takes pride in his work. A women will cook a shitty meal the same way for 50 years. I learn, take notes, and improve my meals EVERY SINGLE DAY.

I should compile my notes and make a good MGTOW cookbook.

Oh, and besides being rewarding, cooking is cheaper than eating crappy fast food. I even buy mostly organic vegetables and prime meats.

And you'll feel better if you cook healthy natural meals. McDonalds will make you feel like garbage.

The initial start up costs to cooking are high unfortunately (cookware, spices, etc). I still encourage every man to start cooking for himself. There's nothing more satisfying than taking an hour to throw a hunk of meat in a skillet, cook some sides, enjoy your masterpiece, and clean your dishes.

If anyone wants advice or good recipes, PM me.

I was so fat growing up and was shamed by everybody for it, including by my mother. It was only after I started living by myself that I realized it was inevitable I would be fat because my mom fries everything, adds butter, salt, sugar, she boils and fries vegetables which means they are nutritionally worthless by the time she serves. Bitch even eats raw butter off the knife. WHO THE FUCK DOES THAT? THAT'S DISGUSTING.

Nowadays, I cook with a convection oven which means I can cook meat without any oil at all. If I use the stove I use coconut oil, which yes does have fat in it but the healthy kind of fat that benefits you, I bought a steamer and lightly steam my vegetables and I am trying (not yet succeeding) to go raw as much as I can with veggies so that I don't lose the enzymes. I am also going to try going keto to see how it works out for me. I also LOVE barbecuing.

Whoever said you'll never be a better cook than your mother is full of shit.

I became a vegan chef the past two years , self taught of course. The food actually taste better when you take the time to make it .

Come from an Italian family. Learned from the old man how ta make a damned good red sauce. Cook it slow, cook it long, and do it with the meat already in there.

Long answer: I love food and variety in taste, but for a number of reasons I tend to think of it in practical terms as fuel before an experience.

First is that I was raised on a pretty good diet in a family household concerned with nutrition. Emphasis was how to get things done cheaply, tastily, and in the right amounts for the body.

Second is that I follow a pretty intensive exercise programme, so when I look at food I think "will this help me recover and function optimally" rather than "how will that taste". Don't get me wrong, I'm not a robot, but I've just figured out through experimentation what I like and what effects those foods have.

Short answer: Eggs.

I'm pretty bad at cooking but I've never really been into food. I can follow a recipe but usually just stick with simple stuff, eggs, pasta, samiches ect. I think if I took up cooking I would get more enjoyment from the activity rather than the result.

I'm a good cook. It's all about just playing around with whatever you think would taste good.

Baker and griller here.

I'll tell you man, nothing tastes better than bread you make with your own hands. It takes some planning ahead, but it's worth it.

You gotta make some Breakfast Bread as your first project. Find a bread you dig. Personally for this I suggest a "pizza crust" flatbread, or if you're feeling crazy, a sourdough.

Let your dough sit for 2 hours minimum while covered to rise. Throw a good amount of grease/oil on in a flat surface and beat that shit like it owes you money. When your bread is good and ready, flatten it out like a pizza.

Now, get some breakfast sausage. You can get away with store bought, but you may as well just get ground beef and add your own seasonings. You're going to let that shit nearly brown up all the way, when you still have some spots of pink, go ahead and drain the grease. I leave just a bit for some flavor.

Now as you finish browning the meat, add some onions and peppers to it. Don't cook them much, it'll finish later on. Last thing you gotta do before you're done is make up some scrambled eggs. I'm not gonna tell you how to do your eggs, you do you. But, you're only going to want to cook your eggs for a few seconds. The goal is to have some cooked whites, but it's still runny as fuck. I know that sounds gross but trust me here.

Now, roll your bread out and make a rim just as if you were doing a pizza. Put your meat in, and the eggs on top. That rim is going to keep your egg from making a mess. Roll your bread into a log, close up both ends, and let that shit cook.

I do mine at 350-375°f for 15-20 minutes. But you're going to want to check your bread in the middle to make sure it's done. Don't worry about the eggs, if you left them runny they should come out fine, if you over cooked then they will be rubbery.

Cut that shot into slices! I put some may-o and a slice of cheese on mine.

Well I check out YouTube and try to recreate, it's pretty damn awesome. I also will have a beer or two while eating/making food. But specifically? I've made currys, tacos, roasted potatoes, chicken, kinda basic stuff. I love to use olive oil and garlic. My breakfasts are generally pretty over kill, eggs, toast with jam, 10grain, hash browns, bacon, ham. Idk it really depends on my mood on what I wanna eat. But what specifically you wanna know about?

I keep adding to my cooking skills. One great, fast meal is ricotta cheese with blueberries, and with a wee bit of olive oil. I just started that this week.

You hear all the time these feminist kooks say that MGTOW guys need a woman to cook. The truth is, there are so many great meals you can make that your biggest worry will be gaining weight.
