My DD (10yo) was saying yesterday that most of her friends' mums used ready made foods instead of cooking from scratch. It got me thinking about why we do it. We have probably 2-3 dinners in the month that aren't home cooked. Usually one take away night and 1-2 bought pizzas.
Mostly it's to keep the food budget manageable but it's also how my mum cooked and I suppose for health reasons too.
Don't want a judgey type thread, just interested in whether most folks do and why
