My roommate is upset because I don't share my meals. While I typically make 2-3 portions, I save the extra for lunches and dinners so I'm only cooking a few meals each week. He offered to help pay for some of my groceries but idk. I prefer my system.

He normally just eats pre made stuff while I prefer making my stuff from scratch so I can see why he keeps asking for a portion. But even if I kept my system of having leftovers AND he paid for his share, I'd need to adjust my recipes and cooking time to compensate for the added meals

You should offer to give him the recipe your his roommate not his wife/mom😭 it’s weird to get offended by that feed yourself wtf

I mean if he’s willing to pay for the groceries just double the recipe so he can have a few servings and you’ll still have your leftovers for lunch

Yeah but if I double it, it'll take twice as long. My largest pan can only cook 2 chicken breasts at a time.

Teach him how to cook or charge him for the time too

Exactly! I'm just some guy who lives with him. It's crazy seeing other guys not know how to cook basic meals
