[ { "content": "Meal packs/ cookbooks that combine ingredients Hi everybody, I am new to cooking, and while I have learned to master a recipe I am now looking to expand my palate. To start I am a very picky eater, but I am trying to find recipes that add one or two new foods at a time for me to try. The problem is, especially with produce, I am finding recipes that need a tiny amount of something, say 1/4 of a head of cabbage, or 2oz out of a jar of sauce for example, and I'm never sure what to do with the rest of the food. Are there any meal packs or cookbooks that take a set of ingredients so there is less food waste overall? I know I can make more things in bulk and freeze them but I am just looking to try new things so having a lot of something isn't exactly my goal. TIA ​ Also posting in r/cookingforbeginners", "role": "user" } ]
