[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I don’t mind leftovers but DH doesn’t care for them.[/b] I try to “repurpose” when possible, like making sandwiches out of last nights pork roast.

I will freezer certain leftovers after a day or two if they lend well to freezing.

My somewhat guilty pleasure is putting leftover veg and protein in a bowl of instant ramen along with sriracha or gochujang and any other Asian condiments I have in the fridge. [/quote]

Let me guess. Your husband also "doesn't care" to cook. It's always the person who isn't responsible for cooking who demands a fresh, hot meal daily. If he were responsible for the cooking, bet he'd change his tune right quick. [/quote]

Nah. I’m the cook and I absolutely despise leftovers. Always have, even as a child. Being the cook hasn’t changed this for me.

OP - what are you throwing away? Uncooked veggies? Leftovers? Old fruit?

I agree with the person who said make more trips. I lived across from a Wegmans for almost 4 years. I went almost daily because it added little time. I was able to buy what tickled my fancy that day. Doing a once weekly trip resulted in wasted food, because it was hard to pivot. [/quote]
