I don't cook unless I have left overs..we home school 3 teen boys so they all get eaten..& at least once a week it is a free for all night..whatever leftovers are in there, everyone picks what they want. If after that things start to turn a lil, they go to the chickens.
@lauriegirl2 i never ever waste a bit of left overs...zero..ever...maybe its due to the fact i have an american pit bull terrier who eats everything..lol...
It's so satisfying to live frugally. I hate waste. If I have to throw something out, because it's gone bad, I feel like I wasn't doing my job very well.
this is how I cook. When I cook for a meal I make enough for 2-5 meals. We eat one, some goes in the refrig for another meal and some might go in the freezer.
It's really NICE not having to cook every meal from scratch. It also helps on those nights your tempted to eat out because you don't feel like cooking. I can pull out a meal in 5-15 minutes, that might have taken 4 hours to make.

I always make plenty of spaghetti, chili and goulash when I cook. All those dishes taste even better the next day.

@brendahere Youre a smart woman Brenda! I often do that too. We dont eat out that often because I always have something on hand.

Looks good to me.
We have what my wife calls smidgen night. All the leftovers are warmed up and everyone gets a smidgen of each. Kind of like a mini buffet.

@fletcher3913 We do that too. It's nice to know we use up everything, save money, & I don't have to cook!
