Home cooking is the only way to go. My family loves dinner time. As the meal begins to finish up I find all my family in the kitchen talking about what happened in their day. Someone is fixing the table, one is making drinks and the other is awaiting to help carry the food to the table. I feel so close the them all during this special time. Once the meal is finished we all pitch in to clean up! Hubby,Son 19 and Daughter 16!

Well don't I always go for the obvious?? Obviously it all depends on Whom does the cooking. Is it Mom or Betty Crocker? I cook better than my mom.. So if I'm the chef, then I'd say I like homecooking. Now Duncan Hines makes a great cake mix! So I balance my self with "who does it better?" Why should I knock myself out for everyday food? I prefer my meat and potatoes.. so I always cook that. Veggies come canned and frozen so they can be 'their' cooking and very good. Dessert can be as simple as a piece of fruit with no special things.. I credit Mother Nature for cooking that. Cooked desserts I share with a famous chef or two. Mrs Smith pie, Duncan Hines cake, Haagan Daz icecream, Jello pudding and gelatin, etc
This mum prefers making her own french fries but not every time. I like my own hamburger sandwiches too. A home made midwest pulled beef from leftover beef roast is better though..
I refuse to commit myself to anybody except for my 'cooking group'.. That's my choice and I'm stickin' to it..!

I love to cook and as with most I find I have little time during the week so what I have started doing is making a meal list for the week and doing all the shopping on the weekend then moving what ever is frozen the night before to the fridge, which my son takes out when he gets home. Now we only eat out a meal or two on the weekend!!

I definatly prefare home cooking as i know exactly whats going into it. in the past ive spent £20 on a take away only to be hungry again 2 hours later. For £20 i could get 3 or 4 days meals. If you can feel good by preparing homecooked food why go out and blow a fortune on junk? theres just no point.

Home cooking. My mom is a great cook and so am i. Ready meals are okay for when you are tired and don't feel like cooking, but there's nothing better than a home cooked meal. Me personally i think it makes the end of the day end peacefully along with a nice hot shower.

Home cooking for me although sometimes it is ready meals as I live on my own, only I do cook and then bring some to my Mum and also freeze some in dishes for myself, can't beat home cooked meals and I do like having friends and family for dinner.

We love home cooking! My husband and I both do things from scratch most of the time!
I even have a food blog because I love taking pictures too(even if I'm not an expert photographer or cook).

Home cooking definitely. Home cooked meals always taste a lot better than ready meals. Ready meals aren't good for you they are all processed and packed with lots of additives and too much salt and sugar

Home cooking is by far the best, including making your own sauces for pasta etc! I've never been a brilliant cook but i do enjoy trying new recipe ideas out and am slowly improving!

Home cooking all the way! I love cooking, and as long as I have time, I prefer it. I am a fairly picky eater when it comes to certain foods, so cooking at home allows me to accommodate my tastes and make something healthier than fast food.
