It's hard for him to get out of the habit. I do batch cooking, too, but it's for things like chili, soup, and spaghetti sauce, which freeze well.<br /><br />@mmy - I hope you share your ideas for your leftovers. <br /><br />I have some leftover lentils and I'm thinking of making mujadara. My favorite restaurant makes it with lentils and bulgar wheat, but I've also had it with lentils and rice, which is what I'm going to make.Coleslawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06813319585807128092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5877872196122597956.post-9766247277045796382011-09-25T20:05:05.035-07:002011-09-25T20:05:05.035-07:00I make leftovers on purpose so that I can bring th...I make leftovers on purpose so that I can bring them to work for lunch. One of the very, very few things I dislike about my husband's cooking - he does it professionally - is that it doesn't result in any leftovers. He's all about the precise placement of items on the plate, which doesn't translate well to "microwaving at work."storitellerhttp://willbikeforchange.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5877872196122597956.post-9668707917181048422011-09-25T14:41:12.203-07:002011-09-25T14:41:12.203-07:00Leftovers are the basis of some of my favourite me...Leftovers are the basis of some of my favourite meals. After all I have the core ingredients and I can just scrounge around the kitchen looking for more things to throw in. The whole is greater than the parts and no two creations ever taste quite the same.<br /><br />In fact your post has inspired me with some great ideas as to things to do with leftovers.mmyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16987853519962545747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5877872196122597956.post-47818945025740079882011-09-25T08:51:25.185-07:002011-09-25T08:51:25.185-07:00I'm glad to know I'm not the only one.I'm glad to know I'm not the only one.Coleslawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06813319585807128092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5877872196122597956.post-69121553927882810212011-09-24T19:49:30.494-07:002011-09-24T19:49:30.494-07:00It never fails.
