Leftovers 4 Lunch

What makes a good leftover?

I’ve talked a lot about specific meals, and recipes, but I haven’t really given my rules of thumb when it comes to what makes a good leftover.

1. It should freeze well. Who feels like having last nights dinner for tomorrow’s lunch.

Exception, mac and cheese, it doesn’t freeze well, but I’d eat it all day, every day.

2. No fish.

exception clam chowder

3. No salads.

no exceptions

4. Can’t require an elaborate reheating ritual.

My favorites?

Chili, burrito / tacos, beans kale and tomatoes, chicken pot pie, pasta dishes, beans and rice.
