Thank you for this, you are amazing! ๐ ๐ ๐
Reading this made me think of something we do here (context: 2 of us, austudy and jobseeker, renters - no microwave). We mix our leftovers together, usually with rice, noodles, or pasta, on the stovetop. Or we'll put it in the oven in a baking dish with cheese on top. Add whatever spices we have in our cupboards, and it feels like a new meal. Staves off the depression that comes with eating the same thing for every meal for a week.
Oh I looove a reincarnated meal. I'm like "Look at this. I'm such a clever dick" but in reality I just hate waste.
it takes work to prepare dishes so I always keep and freeze left overs. Lately I've been putting leftovers in pies and it's quite delicious
That's a really good idea. I freeze stuff for those days I can't be bothered or I just don't know what to cook.
