My mother has always been the type that says she can cook anything they serve at a restaurant. The best part about that statement is she can back it up! Her cooking is delicious and much better for you than going out to eat at most restaurants. Another great thing is that she has proven feeding a family of five is it is cheaper.

Ten dollars can feed one person at a restaurant. At mother’s house, ten dollars can still feed the family and with plenty of leftovers. The ingredients just aren’t that expensive. Either that or my mother is very resourceful plus she does grow some of her own herbs and vegetables so I like to think it’s both. And the way the food tastes makes up for any other flaws. Flaws would be how the food looks. I don’t really think this is a flaw because it always looks homemade.

Another thing is that home cooking is much better for you than restaurant food. At home the cook has time prepare the meal with ingredients that improve the flavor. At a restaurant they just throw tons of butter and salt to make it taste wonderful. And I would also like to point out that I never eat as much bread as I do at a restaurant. I’m sure I’m not the only one.
