I homecook for Miko, and I still have to prepare each meal.

Let me elaborate:
Scoop some homecooked food onto a dish
Add his lactulose, milk thistle, vetri-dmg, probiotics
Mix it all in.
Add his protein sources (goat milk protein powder and egg whites)
Then serve.

The protein sources are added separately to ensure that he's not overloaded with protein at any one meal which can easily happen if the protein is added to the large batch of food mixture that gets frozen. You can't control how much gets scooped out even if it's well mixed. I prefer not to take the risk.

Also, if supplements (ie. milk thistle, vetri-dmg, etc.) are given on food, that has to be added and mixed to the food at each meal, so I don't know that homecooked will be any better as far as having to prepare it.

I cook only once a month or so and freeze in 2-3 day portions.
