Hello!

Just wondering how many MoMmies use a packet, can or jar recipe base meal when they cook dinner each night or do you cook things from scratch?

  • I use both, i cook from scratch but at times i use a packet mix to create a dish for something different


  • I like to cook from scratch but sometimes I get buys and cut corners, I’m more of a jar person.


  • I love a good packet mix, and don’t feel any less of a cook for using them. I’m learning to do a few things from scratch, but honestly time is an issue for me.


  • I love both packet and jar, they help with creating some really good dishes


  • Generally from scratch so I can be sure of the ingredients we are eating. Packets really don’t time save I find.


  • It really depends, sometimes jars or packets make the meal taste better.. Other times you need to cook fro scratch..


  • I use jars, rarely packets – no particular reason why.


  • I always use packets and jars


  • I use packets and jars as I am a terrible cook. Hubby is a brilliant cook and cooks from scratch so I don’t feel guilty two nights a week 🙂


  • I think it depends on my mood and what it is I am cooking, I use a lot of jar pasta sauces, but always add extra flavour to them, but I do quite like the liquid sachet’s, they do make things easier when I really am not in the mood to cook at all.


  • i normally cook everything from scratch


  • I use both, some jars and packet are just too tasty not to use


  • I normally will cook everything from scratch, i brought a bellini from target and that machine is wonderful will never go back to buying jars or packets again.


  • I do a mix of both – sometimes a jar and sometimes from scratch. I also like a lot of the packet ones that you use in the slow cooker.


  • we use packet, jar or whatever as well as cooking from scratch, it depends on the flavour and what we are having
