There’s no food like mom’s food

Moving out of your parents’ home for the first time is incredibly exciting, but can also be very daunting. 

As the old saying goes, ‘There’s no place like home’, and certainly no cook quite like mom. Before packing up and moving out, it’s important to equip yourself with the basics of living solo, including simple cooking skills. To arm those leaving the nest with some help in the kitchen, McCain has made it easy for moms to pass on their beloved recipes and tips in a one-of-a-kind fully-customised cookbook.

The revolutionary Cookbook Creator allows you to make your own 48-page personalised cookbook packed with your family recipes, notes and images, alongside a selection of other recipes suggested for you – all printed and delivered to your door!

Cooking tips for living on your own:

  • Meal planning and prep– Planning your meals is essential for the busy guy or girl on the go, as it helps you eat healthier and saves time and money. Start by making a rough meal plan for the next week or two and prep in advance to make your week ahead easier. By doing this you will also avoid repetition when it comes to the dishes you eat.
  • Make cooking fun– Cooking doesn’t have to be a chore and can be fun. Turn on some music, sip a glass of wine or use this time to listen to your favourite podcast. Think of cooking as a way to relax, unwind and enjoy some me-time.
  • The power is in the freezer– Your freezer may just become your best friend when you learn about the benefits of freezing food. Cook in bulk and freeze leftovers to lock in the freshness and make sure there’s always a meal waiting for you in the freezer. This tip will help you not only prevent waste but also save money, and make your life that much easier. Also, for added convenience, stock up on freezer-friendly food like McCain’s frozen vegetables and potato products. They are affordable, easy to cook, delicious and nutritious!
  • Recreate familiar favourites – Make sure you have access to all your favourite recipes from home with your personalised Made with McCain Cookbook. In true McCain style, the digital tool is quick, easy and simple to use.
