Food Network came out with the Top 50 Recipes of 2009.  So, to that end… Top 3 Reasons to Cook at Home: 1.  Save money.  Cooking at home is cheaper than going out to eat, plain and simple. 2.  Eat healthier.  When you know exactly what’s going into your food, you can control how much fat, salt, sugar, etc. there is in each meal you prepare.  You’d be surprised to see just how bad for you simple meals out can be.  Case in point:  A burrito from On the Border.  My roommates and I went to eat there just last week and what I thought was a healthy choice (I mean how bad can grilled chicken, rice and beans really be for you?) turned out to be disgustingly fattening.  One Chicken Bordurrito = 1970 calories and 93 grams of fat.  Needless to say, that’s the last time I’ll be eating at On the Border. 3.  Have fun with cooking.  Trying new recipes and mastering exciting dishes can be incredibly fun and satisfying.  Not only that, but you and your friends can do pot lucks, supper clubs, or “family dinner nights” as we like to call it at my house.  You get to try other people’s favorite recipes and have a great meal altogether.  What’s better than that?
