Leftovers - A crucial part of Cooking for One!

One of my Facebook friends recently commented on one of my posts about whether or not I take my leftovers to work for lunch the next day, and I realized that this is something that I should definitely post about! Leftovers are a huge part of someone who is living on their own and only cooking for one. It probably seems weird sometimes when I post about these giant meals that I make for myself, but not to worry, the food very rarely goes to waste! Most of the time when I am planning out my dinners for the week, I purposely choose meals that will last me at least 2-3 nights. That way, I save time by not having to cook every single night, and I also save a bunch of money! I typically don't have enough food to be able to bring some in to work for lunch (I usually just brown bag it, got to love good old PB sandwiches!), but it depends on what I make. If I make something really big like Lasagna or Risotto then I will definitely bring it into work and make everyone jealous when I heat it up in the kitchen. Now, about that Risotto that I mentioned....
