I agree it's hard for one, it's barely better cooking for two people. We still have tons of leftovers. I'm trying to learn to scale down recipes and such because I only like leftovers like..once and then I'm done, I can't keep eating the same thing over and over. But, I think you have the right idea...a few meals planned, and leave a few nights open for leftover and cereal. You'll still save a ton of money and just having the burden of "figuring out what to eat" being lifted is nice- it's the worst part of cooking dinner for me. Glad you are giving it a try.
