Cooking for Family and /or / Husband

I find my partner is fairly easy to cook for. He is a vegan too. However he doesn't like genetically modified foods or things that haven't been washed. Neither of us like stuff that has been too processed so cooking from scratch is something that comes naturally to both of us. He is a good cook himself and enjoys it so usually helps me anyway.

hi slick. My hubby is pretty easy to cook for. He does not prefer beans, or spicy foods but is getting better about trying them. I find my kids are harder to cook for. I have a hard time getting them to eat fruits and veggies. They are starting to get better at trying new foods.

My husband is very easy to cook for. I can make something from scratch or from a box. It doesn't matter to him. My kids are the same way. The only thing I have to deal with is the lack of vegetables that my husband will eat. He is getting better and will usually try them - but he's worse than the kids most of the time!

I am sorry to hear that you we're involved or married to a man who got so upset with the food you had made for him in the past. Or how he'd throw the food you had made for him across the table. I know how you feel though.. Because before my other half I used to have a man who was apart of my life.. Who wouldn't just eat anything I would prepare. He'd always complain about how I had cooked the meal.. He also was an extremely picky eater. Everything had to be done a certain way or taste a certain way. I am glad I am not with a man such as this as he didn't seem to appreciate anything I had done or prepared for him. We're both thankful to have men now who appreciate the food we prepare for them! My other half is not at all hard to cook for. If anything he is very easy to cook for. He seems to just love anything that I prepare for us for dinner. I used to be so concerned years ago when we had gotten together when I would prepare foods for him.. As I was scared that he wouldn't like the things I had come up with. But instead he appreciates my cooking & seems to be my biggest fan when it comes to whatever I cook for him. I usually will make a lot of the meals from scratch. But sometimes if there are days where it was a rather busy day for me.. Or if I had to much to do around the house.. I will prepare a box of tuna helper for me & my other half. And then prepare some home-made tuna cakes on the side to.. My other half just loves the way I make tuna helper.. Even if it is made from a box.. He isn't at all picky when I have to prepare things such as this. If anything he sometimes will ask me to make it as he loves it so much each time I make it! We both seem to love tuna helper as it has such a creamy taste to it.. And when I prepare tuna cakes on the side from scratch it just adds to the yummy flavors! I make a lot of things such as chili's or I will make tortillas for us. I will make burrito's from scratch & will sometimes change the ingredients or spices quite often.. And he seems to always love what I come up with. If I include new ingredients he usually can tell right off the bat. And will compliment me on how great tasting the new ingredients are.. He never criticizes the new ingredients I may have put.. But will instead ask if we can try this again sometime in the future or next pay day even. It brings a warmth to my heart knowing he loves the meals I cook so much. My other half is a lot like yours.. And he sometimes will see all the trouble I had gone through to prepare dinner.. And he tells me I shouldn't have gone through all the trouble to prepare dinner for us. And will say make something a lot easier on yourself for the new few days. He sometimes will even come home from work & if he sees how tired I am.. He will even tell me to sit down & relax & he will make dinner for us.. Instead of me having to prepare dinner that night. I am glad I have a man such as this as apart of my life.. As he is willing to cook sometimes instead of expecting me to do all the cooking all the time. Before him I never had this quite honestly. In conclusion.. I find that my other half isn't at all picky when it comes to the meals I prepare for him for dinner. If anything he loves what I tend to come up with each night.. He seems to always compliment me on how great a lot of the things I make taste.. I am glad I have a man apart of my life who appreciates everything I cook for me & him. As I'd much rather have a man like this compared to a man who is a picky eater.. And all he does is criticize the foods I come up with. It's a blessing to have this! . . Thanks for allowing me to share! xx

My boyfriend lives with me and he is a carnivore. I am a strict vegetarian- I won't even touch meat. He knows that if he wants me to cook for him, then he'll have to eat vegetarian meals. Needless to say, he cooks for himself. He doesn't really care- he's gotten used to this. Every now and then I'll make him a vegetarian feast, but usually he heats up some sort of meat dish on the side. I don't know why he likes meat so much, but we've worked out this compromise.

HA HA!!! I don't have a man to cook for and NEVER have!!! That's a small part of why I never bothered to get married or shack up - I'm NOT working a full time job, just to come home to ANOTHER full time job! Besides, I've never made ANY claims to being a cook! (So, don't ya know, part of my new job requires me to fix meals for this disabled lady!)

I used to have a husband like your first one - pain in the behind, we couldn't even order pizza from time to time. Now my cooking is terrific - I don't. Son never wants to eat what or when I want to so I cook from time to time and if he doesn't want it he eats from the freezer to the microwave.

I hate to cook. Some time I would go through the period where I would get out some of my cook books and start cooking. I would be so proud and serve my family with pride and then I would set down to eat with them and my husband would say what is this crap. It would hurt my feeling so bad. Or I would work all day and come home and cook a really good healthy meal and then I would call my boys for supper and they would say "Oh IM not hungry, I ate at so and so's house" So i got to the point that after I work 12 hours a day and then come home and cook just so our boxer will end up with most of it, I will let my husband fix his own meal and I will call my boys from work and ask them what they want for supper. And If I fix it they better eat it. If they dont eat it, they will have it for breakfast. My husband works out of town alot so my boys and I will eat out alot.

Mine likes everything from scratch. Some things that I make from a box are not so obvious. If he is not around, he does not know it came from a box. My spices and sauces are store bought, but you would not know it, and he doesn't know it.

I'm a student now.I didn't get married,i lived with my parents.My mother cooks for my family.my father enjoys her cooking.me too.

well sometimes you got to be hard. i mean you wanna eat then eat or else stay hungry.

My boyfriend, he is wonderful. First of all, he did most of the cooking when we both had full time jobs. Now I work part time and I do the cooking and no matter how terrible (and trust me, sometimes it was terrible) it was, he was supportive and did his best to make sure I knew he appriciated the effort. He is an easy one, you can do whatever you like, as long as it's not rotten or taste like ash, he'll eat it.

I cook more often. I am at home all of the time during the winter. My gf isn't hard to cook for. But she is picky & never liked a lot of stuff until I pointed out the flavors in the foods I fix that she liked. She never liked onions... Yea Right. If I cooking you are eating it my way. Anyway I put onions in but was was sneaky about it. I used a garlic press crush the onion. I also learned a trick this way, it really brings out the onion flavor. But she is never hard to cook for.

My fiance isn't picky at all about food but, I am getting really bored with cooking easy meals so, two weeks ago I made some beef stew for the first time from scratch. Everyone liked it but, it was a little salty. I don't know what happened it must have been from the boulion because I didn't put any salt in it. My children are the picky eaters though. My son Andrew wouldn't even try my beef stew but, he can eat beef stew from a can that has the same veggies and everything in it. I enjoy cooking from scratch because it makes me proud of myself for accomplishing something new. My fiance would eat the food either way but, I have to cook food so that my fiance, my two kids, and I can all eat it. I find that somewhat difficult because we all like some different things. My fiance and my son don't like mayonaise, mustard, or miracle whip. So, if I make me and my daughter egg salad I have to make my son and fiance hard boiled eggs with butter melted on them. So, it's not easy to cook around here but, I manage to do alright at it!

my husband is very easy to cook for. hes happy to just have sandwiches or spaghetti with a salad. he makes it so that i dont have to cook every night. my kids like to make what they want to eat. so that makes it easy. when i do cook which is very often, my husband always compiments me. i like cooking from scratch, but i dont do it often enough.

My hubby is very easy to cook for. He loves everything, where I am the picky one. I do cook from scratch. I myself prefer to cook from scratch. I know what goes into each meal. I do all my baking from scratch as well.

My husband is picky but not as bad picky as he used to be, but he is still hard to cook for, So he ends up cooking a lot more for himself than he would if he were not so picky. Some of our kids are also picky and I think it is because he is.

actually my mom doesnt cook for my dad. My dad cooks for all of us and he is a very good cook. It makes him so happy that we eat together, and eat to our hearts content and enjoy his delicious cooking.

My family is easy to cook for and they love to try new things. My boyfriend is VERY appreciative of everything that I make and is sure to say how much he likes something over and over. It feels good that he does that. He also cooks sometimes too and thats really nice.

My husband is easy to cook for though he is sort of 'vegitarian' who doesn't eat any animal mean but seafood meat. He can cook for himself but I cook better so he hardly complains the food I prepare. But sometimes he will blame me on his weight gain due to the food I cook - too good to control his diet...
