Maybe it’s the garden, or knitting, or cutting back on what I’m eating but I’ve turned into a really lazy cook. It seems that no matter what I make, my main goal is to get several meals out of it.
Over the weekend, we grilled steak and I though . . I’m going to grill two chicken breasts for later in the week.
Leftover Chicken
One day I made tortellini with squash and mushrooms and chicken. It was really good (and there was enough for two meals!).
Leftovers
I don’t like red sauce . . doesn’t matter if it’s homemade or storebought, and Vince seems to like storebought just as much as he likes homemade so . . storebought often works for me.
One day I had fried eggplant and some was left over. So, leftover eggplant, grilled chicken, storebought red sauce and Parmesan cheese ..
Leftover Chicken Again
And, again, there was enough for two meals.
Yep, I’m a lazy cook these days but we’re not going hungry.

Think of it as “thrifty” or “efficient.” 🙂

I think they call that working smart! Sounds great to me (and I’m impressed you eat your leftovers! HA).

Really, who want’s to cook all the time when it’s so hot & humid. Just heats up the house more & makes the AC work harder.

Judy, are you still cutting sugar?
