[quote=Anonymous]What do leftovers taste like?

Casseroles and lasagna can be prepped in advance and reheat well. And the crockpot is your friend.

We also do quesadillas, grilled cheese, bagel pizzas, tacos, etc.

I do a rice, broccoli, and cheese casserole that is really easy. Just evaporated milk, a tablespoon of diced onion, garlic, 2 cups cooked rice, and steamed broccoli. Bake on 375 for 25 minutes. You can do it with chicken or breaded chicken. In a pinch, I'll do Bell & Evans frozen breaded chicken.

I often do crockpot of meatballs with sauce - cook on low until I get home then cook pasta or make subs. Those also reheat well and can be used for leftovers. You can also make the meatballs in advance and pan fry them and serve with noodles, parm. cheese, and fresh tomato.

Chicken with cream of mushroom, serve with rice and veggies. Just dice chicken, put in a casserole dish with cream of mushroom, and bake on 350 for about 45 minutes.

I found a fairly easy beef stew recipe that can be done in the crockpot, but unfortunately the kids don't really like it.

Do you have Pininterest? You can get loads of ideas from there as well. [/quote]
