That is, coming home with the leftovers.
Do you just munch randomly thru the leftovers and whatever you didn't get to in a few days is tossed or do you take inventory and figure out your changed menu for the next few days, trying to maximize it.....even if might not be stuff that you normally eat? After I take the dog out again and put my wash in.......and manage not to return to the keyboard.....I am going to try to inventory. At least, empty out the freezer bags in the frig. _______________________________________________________________________________ ("What?

4 teenage boys in the house. what are this 'leftovers ' you speak of? Shrimp from a platter banana pudding fruit salad onions pickles corn tortilla chips con casa tuna fish casserole fancy noodle something burger buns the shrimp and tuna casserole is going into a stew TODAY. The chips will be my soup croutons for a while.....I think they gave at least 80% of a 5 lb bag. The buns will probably consume this week, inbetween those times when I am not cooking stew. Hmmmm, reminds me of the book "Submarine Diary" where they fled the Philippines with supplies meant for the defenders, surrender came first. They couldn't allow it to fall into enemy hands, so they were told to eat their way through it. _____________________________________________________________________________ ("She (their mother in law) is from behind the iron curtain."––1st person "Some say she ate her way through it."––2nd person, (w,stte), "The Maltese Bippy") |

The tuna casserole turned out to be stuffing. Had that with the shrimp and fancy noodle salad today. Didn't bother with a stew but just ate them.

Good times, noodle salad. What makes it so hard is not that you had it bad, but that you're that pissed that so many others had it good." |

I try to maximize the leftovers and create meals with them. I like to think of myself as the Dr. Frankenstein of yesterday's food. I am a cheap bastard, so I do my absolute best not to waste anything. Burnt; eat it. Over cooked and dry; bbq sauce and eat it. Bread gone stale; nuke it and make grilled cheese sammichs. Unless it has gone rancid, its getting used up. |
