My wife is addicted to takeout food and orders it pretty much every single day. I cook clean meals and nice meals and she will eat when i cook it yet a few hours later in the night she will still order in pizza, chinese, kebabs, or burgers hours after the cooked meal so me doing all the cooking is not working because the meals are not filling her up. Right now she is pregnant but still does this even when not pregnant.

It's costing a small fortune as spends around £15 a day (we are in the UK) due to the places having minimum order when you do it online so even when me and the kids have already eaten she will fulfill the minimum order regardless and just waste the rest of the fries or whatever.

Any recipes that will keep her full and satiated for the rest of the evening so i don't have to deal with her rinsing our cash on takeout?

We don't have shared bank accounts. She has her own but she still has to contribute to the running of the home. It's called a joint income but we have separate accounts. The cash isn't supposed to be blown on takeout food in a few days.

Essentially what you need to do is have a serious talk with that person about health issues she's causing herself in the long run.
"Cravings" probably shouldn't be an excuse to stuff your face with grease every day.

I've been with my wife for 10 years now. We met in high school, and I got her pregnant. She is and always has been a lazy person and a shit cook. I wouldn't even mind eating shit food if she at least made it on time. But she rarely did.
We'd get into screaming arguments constantly about how lazy and worthless she was. I felt like an asshole for it, but goddamn she was a real piece of work. The only reason I dealt with all this was for the kids, and also because the sex is great.
But one night, I got fed up. Not only did she get drunk, neglect the kids, and made me top Ramen for dinner, but she decided to give me attitude too. She was being real fucking bitchy. So I told my grandparents to keep an eye on the kids and told my wife we were going to go out and have dinner together. I drove maybe 3 blocks to a quiet area (we live in Oregon, it's not hard to find a quiet field) and I got out of the car, went around like I was going to open her door for her and let her out, and I just beat the shit out of her while she was still seatbelted. After a few punches, I asked her if she wanted to go back to her parents. She started screaming and yelling and said yes, so I beat the shit out of her again. Then I asked her what she wanted to do. She finally got smart and said she wanted to go home. So I took her home and dared her to start trouble. I even handed her my cellphone and dialed her mom's number on the drive home. I made her talk to her mom, while daring her to fucking say something.
Before that incident, I had never laid a hand on her. But I had always threatened it. I told her "one of these days, if you don't straighten up, I'm going to lay hands on you."
All my meals have been on time, and she just recently tried to make a meatloaf. It was mediocre, but I was just thrilled that she tried.
Do with this information what you will.

You're fucked. You should have nipped this problem in the bud (not talking about the baby, but that probably would have been a good idea too). Now that she's pregnant she is using "cravings" as an excuse and you'll be the asshole for trying to stop it now. She'll complain to her friends and family that you are trying to deprive the fetus of essential nutrients. They will convince her that you're abusing her, and you will get divorced. You will not pass Go. You will not collect $200. But make no mistake, this will never go away on its own. You will have to take destiny into your own hands. The choice is yours, but either way you are fucked

It’s pretty hard to replicate takeout pizza at home as they use pretty specialized onions. Burgers aren’t so bad.

1. Use a 70% lean 30% fat ground beef blend
2. Use plenty of salt and MSG when cooking
3. Don’t use too big a patty, fast food burgers are thin
4. Gently toast the bun

It's possible that she has a lurking medical condition as >>14149032 suggests, but otherwise try getting more protein into her diet since it sounds like that's what she's after anyway.. Even if it means you have to buy extra meat or protein powders for smoothies, it will still be cheaper than getting takeout. /fit/ would probably have the most ideas how to do this.

I didn't see this posted but I had a similar problem and started doing DIY fast food at home and subbed in fresher and healthier stuff. Like I'd make crunchwraps from taco bell with butter lettuce, roux thickened cheese sauce and diced cherry tomatoes short pickled in vinegar and things like coconut flour tortillas and shit. It got my fat ass off fast food because what I made was actually tastier even tho it was healthy.

The short answer to your question is it's going to take a fuckload of effort to fix this I hope she's stupid hot cause I'd never try and fix some one else.

I second this, make home versions of fast food. They will often be much healthier, and tastier because of the fresh ingredients.

Make sure you season everything properly, and get the right ingredients. Idk if your wife likes spicy food, but that seems to help me with appetite and flavor.

Instead of adding more salt, fat, or sugar, I add chili sauce, fresh chilis, or some sort other spicy ingredients. Sesame seeds are also very flavorful and add a lot to different dishes.

I find myself addicted to take out sometimes, and I make small goals. Don't eat out for one whole day, then two, three, a whole week etc.

Spanish onions
I work at a restaurant that started as a pizza joint. Was sent to train everyone on pizza for the opening of the newest location. So you can trust me on this. It's just Spanish onions.
We make our marinara sauce from scratch. Basil, onions, garlic, fennel, paste, cans of peeled tomatoes, salt, sugar, pepper. Nothing THAT fancy. Have a picture of the dough recipe on my phone, if you wanna get fresh restaurant like dough.
Pic is a pizza I made a while ago
