Homecooking vs takeaways - Food - Cooking Tips

Yes we all love a good takeaway but given the choice would you rather have a takeaway or enjoy a tasty home cooked meal just like our mums used to make us in the good old days. I remember the gorgeous sunday roasts and the homemade lasagne that came with a lovely helping of salad.

How could you resist it?

With having a child you have to embrace the fast food culture but if I was childless I would probably go two years without any fastfood and I wouldn't miss it at all.

There is so much fat in takeaways but it is the other bits that my wife hates she is part of the anti-salt crowd and dislikes the way you can't have a mcdonalds without it being full to death of salt. Part of it is a scam though as they will over salt your order just so that you will spend more on drinks.

My wife reluctantly had a Mcdonalds at the weekend just to keep our son happy though the taste from the local restaurant serving roast dinners did get to be too much from time to time. Not to mention the fact that we were in a large shopping centre and the wiff from the local chinese restaurant with all the fresh produce was getting to us rather a lot. But you do it for the kids and would feel guilty if we had dragged him elsewhere.

If you are a fastfood addict why not make it yourself. By doing this you can be controlling every single item that goes into it and it is so much nicer to do it with the kids. Make a homemade pizza and let the kids decorate the top of it, they could even arrange the vegetables in a certain way so that it creates a smiley face. You could even make homemade beefburgers with a pack of minced beef that you have picked up on special offer at the supermarket.

For a more adult feel why not make your own curry rather than heading to the indian takeaway as there is so much rubbish in the ones that you buy and it will taste so much nicer. The spice jars last forever so the ingredients won't actually cost you that much and you would be saving yourself an absolute fortune. You could even make your own chinese at home if that is more to your taste.

The ideas are endless and like the Asda advert you will have money spare in the back pocket of your jeans for once!

Whether you want to enjoy home cooking or takeaways you can have the best of both knowing exactly what ingredients have been used and the savings that it has created for you.

A difference between Takeaway and Restaurant - Food - Restaurant Reviews

A Restaurant and Takeaway, both are same but it has some difference in service and cuisine. A Takeaway means prepared food that is intended to be eaten off of the premises. The Restaurant is an establishment which prepares and serves food and drink to customers in return for money. Takeaway food is often fast food, but not always so. Whereas fast food carries the connotation of a standardized product from a globalized chain or franchise, take-away outlets are often small businesses serving traditional food, which is sometimes but by no means always of high quality. In some cases, there are facilities for customers to order food by telephone, fax, or over the Internet, to be collected or delivered. This trend is thought to be on the rise as many small businesses take to the Web to promote their take-outs. Food that is delivered by a restaurant to a customer is also sometimes called take-out. Certain types of food that are normally served in sit-down restaurants are commonly available...

The Top 10 Best Foods to Fuel Muscle Growth - Health

It's always helpful to have a list to remember important things. Few things are as important to help you to increase muscle mass as the foods that you eat. With that in mind, here are the top 10 foods to fuel muscle growth. Lean Beef- People love steaks and hamburgers, but unfortunately the majority of cuts that you get at restaurants and grocery stores are loaded with unhealthy fats. Don't write beef out of your diet though. You can still eat beef to fuel muscle growth. In fact, the bodybuilders of years gone by ate a lot of beef to get bigger and stronger. Simply take a smart approach to eating and choose the leanest cuts possible and don't eat red meat at every meal. Stay lean to fuel lean mass. Ground Turkey- You can buy lean ground turkey at most grocery stores. This ground protein source is a great way to liven up bland pasta recipes and to make casseroles and other dinner dishes.
