Leftover gourmet
The phrase "The second time around" takes on new meaning for the busy cook, because nothing is more useful than having leftovers ready to create tasty new meals. With these recipes (based on common dishes) and a minimum of kitchen time, dinner is a relaxing time to get everyone around the table.
Leftover safety:
• Refrigerate or freeze leftovers within 2 hours of serving.
• Slice large cuts of meat and store in serving-size packets.
• Cover and refrigerate cooked rice3 within 1 hour of cooking; keep leftover rice for no longer than 24 hours.
• Store large quantities of thick food, such as stew or chili, in several shallow uncovered containers for quicker cooling in the refrigerator.
• Label and date wrapped leftovers to eat within 3 days.
• Check the refrigerator once a week and discard old leftovers.
