What are some good recipes that will give you leftovers for the next day?
Answers:
Spaghetti......... It's always better the next day
Lasagna......... It fills you up so fast there are always left-overs.
Meat-loaf........Kids hate it so there's always some in the fridge the next day.
Chicken bog (lots of rice with boiled chicken) ......I make so much at one time so the kids can have it the next day and 1/2
Turkey............ It's always to much to finish off at one sitting.
pot roast one night and roast beef sandwiches with au jus the next
lasagne!
depends on how many you are feeding to how much you want to cook all at the same time, but,,,,,,,,
spaghetti with meat sauce is always good easy to make and usually has leftovers, and you don't have to cook all the noodles the first night, they are pretty easy to cook up a second batch for leftovers and it will taste fresher that way too.
so cook up a big batch of sauce and meatballs or scrambled hbmeat with onions, when meat is done drain of grease then add meat to the sauce, and cook for a few minutes on low , then keep your noodles seperate, only cook the amount of noodles you need each meal.

my family loves this and it taste great warmed up.
A beef or pork roast, baked chicken, casserole, spaghetti, lasagne...just about anything if you prepare enough the first time.
For leftover roast, you can prepare sandwiches, or dice for fried rice, shred for BBQ sandwiches. Chicken can also be made into sandwiches, or chicken salad.
The possibilities are endless.
Any meat can be mixed with a different sauce, a few veggies and have another meal....Casseroles can be refrigerated or frozen for another time, as can lasagne. Make a bit pot of spaghetti sauce, then serve it over different pasta during the week, with a different salad or veg for an entirely different mea.
