Leftover Ideas
I get a lot of questions about how I can cook so much of one thing at one time. Don't you get tired of eating something so often?
I actually plan on it. As an example, if I cook the Mega Meatloaf, One day I'll have it as cold meatloaf sandwiches, Or I'll chunk it up, warm it in some beef broth, thicken it, then serve over mashed potatoes. Or, I'll slice it thin, put it in some beef broth, break it up as it heats, and use sour cream to thicken. If you serve it over wide noodles, you can call it Beef Stroganoff.
The bottom line is, you cook for the leftovers, but don't serve them as leftovers. Leftovers are a way of prepping a dish before putting it all together. There are a lot of people out there who won't eat leftovers, so don't call it leftovers, just tell your family that we're having Beef Stroganoff tonight, and they'll never know. In reality, all you've done is prep the meat prior to doing the meal like a restaurant might do.
Use the recipes included here to give you an idea of how I make use of some of the many things I cook. I'm like everyone else, and would get real tired of eating the same thing for a week.
