Dude Food

top real estate coachesThis section is dedicated to divorced Dads, because chicks dig a dude who can cook.

And ladies…you’re always welcome here.  You may even find something you want your man to cook for you;)  Of course, I’m also open to new meals and recipes to share.

Being divorced for over 4 years now, I learned very quickly that most “single-again” people fall into the trap of eating out at restaurants, ordering take-out, using the drive-thru, buying pre-made meals and other means of getting a meal with the least amount of effort.  Most often the excuse is that “I’m only cooking for myself.”

What a depressing thought.   And I’ve been there, believe me.   When you’re not putting out the effort on yourself, you can inadvertently feed into your own depression and create a downward spiral.

I’ve always loved to cook, and one of the best excuses to cook for yourself is to share the food with someone.  If you have children, that’s easy…and kids can make the cooking and preparation part more fun than you ever imagined!    If it’s just you (or for those days/evenings where you’re alone), I challenge you to cook a meal – more than you yourself can eat – and pick a neighbor or friend to share it with.

Whether you eat with them or bring a plate/container to them, I guarantee this simple act will lift your spirits.

And your tastebuds:)

With that in mind, enjoy the recipes…
