Recipes Using Planned Leftovers
Save time & money with planned leftover recipes
Planned leftovers are an integral part of our meal plans for busy cooks, and they are the second tier in the Busy Cook's Pyramid.
When you cook more food at one time, you eliminating that prep and cleanup time another night. Cooking an extra pound or two of meat to use in a planned leftover recipe later in the week means you only clean up once, and you only invest in the cooking time once.
If you plan the leftovers based on grocery store sales, you can stretch your grocery dollars even more. Stocking up on meat at the lowest price, then cooking it in such a way as to minimize your time in the kitchen is double the savings.
