1. Do you mostly prepare your meals at home or do you eat out more?
A little of both. I do try to prepare, cook and eat at home as often as possible especially with having a very tight budget just now.

2. Is there a time of day when you are more likely to buy food already prepared?
Not really, I tend to only eat when I remember so that usually means a bowl of cereal or a packet of crisps. I do have to be reminded and sometimes prompted to eat.

3. What is your average weekly grocery bill (for how many people)? What is your total restaurant/fast food bill for an average week?
Weekly is around £5 for essentials - milk, bread and snacks as I tend to do a big (over £100 delivery shop) to keep the freezer and cupboards stocked up every few months. Eating out is a treat but were it a weekly thing it would be usually around £20 and that includes the drinks.

4. What is your favourite meal to prepare at home?
Just now it's Quorn (one of mince/chicken style pieces/BBQ or steak style strips) with veg and rice because I can cook all of them in the pan for around 5 to 10 minutes. Think of it as an impromptu stirfry that uses up whatever veg is left over and close to it's use by/best before and Sainsbury's microwave rice pouches cook a lot better in a pan.

5. What is your favourite meal to order in a restaurant?
It depends on where I am and what I feel like eating when I'm out but usually it'll be pretendy fish and chips (battered halloumi, chips and garden peas) then again I sometimes have macaroni cheese (Siberia has the best in Aberdeen) or a veggie haggis pie.
