How to get into the habit of cooking >1 portions? (lemmy.ml)

I always cook for myself alone which means I'm used to cooking just one portion, or 2 portions which I end up eating in one sitting anyway. I usually improvise my meals and my brain just seems hardwired to measure quantities for a single portion meal. Does anyone have any tips for scailing your cooking up to cook for groups?

              Do a meal plan for each week, buy groceries based on it for the number of portions.
Put out the storage container you're planning on using before you start cooking, so you remember to fill it while you're serving yourself.
