Re: What do you do with leftovers?
 

I'm completely useless with the portions thing. Especially rice or pasta. It does my head in.:cry_smile:

Leftovers often went the the hens when we had hens.
Often leftovers go into MrBEVS lunch box & I sometimes manage to get portions sorta right so there are deliberate leftovers for that lunch box.

Stews/casseroles just get extra veg added and then eaten with 'nice' bread.

Chicken gets made into a pie or just eaten cold the next day.

Yesterday I made a monster lemon meringue pie which was a sure bet for leftovers. Look in the cupboard this morning and it is completely gone. All. Gone.

There are only the two of us and I am not sure my geriatric cat could be bothered. :sneaky:

It is amazing how much those furry barking dustbins consume...when you dont have such a bin to feed, you see how much is wasted :cool:

Wasn't me. Although I do love lemon meringue pie. Can't vouch (at all) for the rest of the family though. There is nothing that exciting in my cupboards (I don't want to encourage them), so they could be foraging anywhere.:nod:

You can never have too much rice. The 'kids' like it with cream of mushroom soup added for lunch.

When we're having something involving rice I make double and then within a couple of days there's a fried rice.
Roast chicken
Next day Sweet and Sour (leftover) Chicken & rice
Then Pork Chop (the pack is too big so some is kept back)
Then Pork fried rice
There will likely be sweet and sour chicken/fried rice available for lunch.

Last week I had a bit leftover from meatloaf, pork chop and chicken and it all went into a spectacular curry on the fourth day. :thumbup:

I make the best lemon meringue pie ever.

I am more than willing to test that claim.

Put all the leftovers in a blender make a smoothie and tell him it is guaranteed to keep his pecker up.

We're visitng Canada later this year. If you are between Vancouver and Calgary or in Southern Ontario I would be more than happy to make you one. (I know you're in the maritimes, but we're not going to the east coast this trip)

We're :fingerscrossed: coming for Christmas so we'll arrange a TO meetup for December once we've firmed up plans.

Re: What do you do with leftovers?
 

Our four legged bins behave very differently.
One of them sometimes doesn't even wait for the memo and helps herself (such as hubbys sandwiches this morning!). She'd happily take your hand off at the same time as the food if you're not quick enough (think lightening speed).
The other is so gentle you could place the food on her tongue and she'd wait for permission to eat it...

I'm just waiting for them to learn to open the fridge! Lol

Re: What do you do with leftovers?
 

The only leftovers we have is Chili, Bolognese and meatballs, all of which get portioned up and shoved in the freezer for the time when I can't be arsed to cook and I've got enough portions of any of them. I cook large quantities because me and offspring are quite happy just having a bowl of rice as a meal so that's not leftovers, that's done on purpose. ;)
