I buy exactly what I will eat for the week, and eat it all. I don’t waste any food. At the end of seven days, my refrigerator is nearly empty, except for things that last me more than one week, like milk.

I enjoy preplanning my food throughout the week and then going to the discounter exactly once a week and getting everything for the upcoming week in one strike. I cook big portions and shove parts of the food into the freezer. Fresh produce sometimes is a problem to keep fresh for a week in summer so that’s when there may be a second short visit at the grocery department in such weeks. What I do different to your approach is that I cook a variety of meals because I enjoy preparing them and eating them.
Mastering the schedule and the shopping makes me feel good and proud of myself. It’s important to me.
I do this but with two trips exactly because of produce and such. I try to do a lot of fresh vegetables so like half my cart is usually produce but then I had to throw things away too often. Two trips seems like the minimum.
