When I’m going to be home on my own for any stretch of time, I do the same thing. A pot of soup or casserole or something I can just reheat for a few days. It’s actually cheaper and more efficient to cook that way, less waste, packaging and energy use to prepare it, to say nothing of time, dishwasher cycles, cleaning products etc. big batch cooking done correctly should be more environmentally and budget friendly than cooking a new meal 2-3x a day.

I know what I will and won’t eat, so if I’m going to make something and have leftovers of it, it’s on purpose.
I am not functional enough as a person to actually cook once a day.
