I love taking leftovers to lunch at work. I always eat in and I like reheated leftovers MUCH better than a sandwich.

We have too many leftovers and it IS a challenge, I have to admit, to always use them up, but I do try. Wasting food bothers me.

I love to take leftovers to work with me for lunch instead of eating out. Not only does it save money most times the leftovers are healthier than eating out. I am a firm believer that a hot lunch gives you fuel to make it through the rest of the work day.

I love leftovers. I eat them for lunch and send them with my husband to work so he won't buy food! I find that if I am going to do leftovers for dinner though, it works better to portion out the food right after cooking it and then put it away, not just put away what's left after we eat, KWIM? Or sometimes I prepare all the food and then portion it before even cooking it, like I'll make a whole lasagna and then cut it in half before baking it. It turns out better when not twice cooked.

That is a good thought about portioning the food out in advance. I did that recently with chicken spaghetti.

Sometimes I'll do that and immediately freeze one portion. That way, we're not eating "leftovers" immediately, but instead a few weeks later.

Yeah, that really helps with the feeling tired of eating the same things again and again.
