What are your favorite leftovers?

[bearfan454]

Mine are chili, meat loaf sandwiches, enchiladas, and tonight I'm having leftover axis taco meat. I made tacos about a week ago and vacuum packed and froze the leftovers so now I don't have to cook tonight.

1. Meat loaf is always great as a leftover.

I also like cold pizza.

5. Meatloaf and beef stew.

6. Beef stew too, but not the potatoes.

They can get kind of soggy if left in with the rest.

9. I used to pull the potatoes out after the first heating

and drop them in when the 2nd heating took place......great for a large family, which I had.

2. Pizza... I don't eat much anymore (consistently on a low carb/moderate carb diet), but damn...

nothing like cold pizza. Unfortunately, I'm not finding that newer lower carb crust options (like cauliflower) always sustain heat/cold/reheat cycles.

As to more routine left-overs, I really only cook things that will store/freeze/reheat well. Especially soups, chili, stews.

3. My favorites are things that taste better the second day.

Chili is one, but nearly any dried beans and soups or stews fall in that range, as well. I always make a big pot and count on leftovers to freeze.

4. Love meatloaf and chicken as leftovers.

I love meatloaf sandwiches and I love making chicken tacos on the 2nd night of chicken, yummm.

13. meat loaf and chili, yes

are my two favorite leftovers, too But I also like cold chicken, especially in the summertime. It's nice if there is also some cold potato salad in the 'frig to go with it. I no longer do potato salad, but the RG has a way of making potato salad without potatoes. Tastes just like the real thing. Forgot what it is he uses, but I think it's cannellinis.

In addition, any kind of meatball leftovers are good, like chicken curry meatballs or pork/beef combination meatballs.

14. Cold Fried Chicken

Home fried, not the KFC or Churches kind, but the pan fried kind I make along with a dill pickle and a slice of white bread. Cold meat loaf on whole wheat with a smear of mustard is good, too.
