Making one batch or two usually takes pretty much the same time and often doesn’t cost that much more since not all recipes use all ingredients purchased. Whenever a recipe can be frozen I double it up and freeze the second portion. Each trip you make will both waste time and probably result in impulsive buying and unplanned purchases as a result. Once you know what you will be eating all week you can buy enough groceries for all meals that week instead of making more trips to the store. It also saves trips to the grocery store when you prepare a weekly meal plan.

That way you don’t realize halfway through a recipe that you are short of one of the ingredients (does that only happen to me?). When you plan your meals you will ensure that you have all ingredients ready when you cook. You will usually have leftovers that can be eaten the next day or frozen for another day. Cooking at home is always cheaper than eating out. You will save money on meals when you plan ahead.
