1. Cooking is fun, and I like to eat delicious, debatably healthy food. Also, my wife hates cooking. She bakes sometimes, but the stove top is mine exclusively.
2. I plan meals out in the grocery store. Who knows what will catch your eye for a fun meal until you're right there looking at it. Grocery shopping is a weekly thing.
3. There are about a dozen meals in my arsenal that my wife loves, half of which my daughter will eat too. They're mostly typical American meals like chili, casseroles, burgers, and various pastas. So I cook those most often. Asian foods, particularly stir fry, are something I like to play with when I'm just cooking for me. Asian cultures have some amazing dishes from the simplest ingredients and procedures.
4. Diet? I don't understand why people without serious health issues diet. Eat what is delicious, in moderation.
5. I don't have any life hacks. Just prepare your ingredients before starting, try to time the steps for potential parallelization, and don't wander off without setting a timer. Those I hope are common sense, but many people don't seem to get it. Oh, and freeze just about everything for later. Freezers are underrated.
