To my shame, I've got to 40, and I really can't cook.
I've got a few recipes that I'm ok at (macaroni cheese, tuna pasta bake, spaghetti Bol, various pasta and sauces), but in general I'm crap. I have no inspiration as to what to cook, and most of my stuff ends up fairly tasteless.
(If you are wondering how on earth I've got to this age without being able to cook, I have had eating disorders from my teens and throughout my 20s and 30s, and I don't get a lot of enjoyment from food. Still now, even though my eating is much better, I calorie count everything, because it's impossible to forget how many calories are in things once you know, and I find eating and cooking quite stressful)
However, I am quite ashamed not to be able to cook properly, and I've got 2 kids who I'd like to try and be a bit more creative and inventive for. I've also started a new business thing which may require me to cook for families on occasion, and the thought of that fills me with utter dread.
So, can you help? Easy recipe ideas? Where do I start? DS1 would eat pasta for every meal if he could, so ideas with pasta would be a good start.
Thank you!
