What is your Favorite Leftover??

[Magicman]

Soup, chile, and gumbo have to be mine because they all seem to get better each time.   

I love the microwave.   

[POSTON WIDEHEAD]

Any kind of stew. It gets better everyday 'til its gone. 

[yukon cornelius]

my wife makes the best potato soup. its really good the next day. another favorite of mine is an invention of mine... I call it holiday pie. after thanksgiving and Christmas we put all the leftovers mixed together in a pie crust. mashed tators, homemade noodles, turkey, stuffing, sweet potatoes, green bean casseroles, and anything else that isn't desert.

I've used my 'Braised Goat Shank' recipe on some venison roasts this winter. The latest adventure, I could not get the brandy-prune-shallot sauce to a consistency we wanted. Yet, the meat was tender tasty, but allowing to set in roaster and the fridge 24 hours did the trick. Especially, the cold cuts of sliced prune-brandied venison/horseradish sauce sandwich was special!

Pizza eaten cold for a fast and tasty meal on the go and so is a leg of chicken. Pumpkin pie is a good leftover to have for breakfast.

Maple Syrup Pie and Maple Syrup Dumplings.
I've got a sweet tooth.

Spaghetti (sketty  ;D) or stew, or Venison!

[clww]

There are so many!
Spaghetti, Chicken Fajita Soup, Lasagna, Meatloaf, Chili, Fried Chicken, Pinto Beans, etc.....
BTW-my wife is a great cook, which helps.

Got to go with the Spaghetti.  My wife didn't used to like my spaghetti, because it gave her horrible heart burn, (store bought sauce).  Then I started growing all my own tomatoes, and now she loves it, as there is so little acid in fresh tomatoes.  I puree them in the food processor, freeze the puree in gallon zip lock freezer bags, and then use that as my base to make "fresh" spaghetti all year long.  Soup is my next favorite.  Always better the second day.

Hard to say. I tend to repurpose most leftovers into something else. Mashed potatoes get turned into potato pancakes. Left over meats, especially off the grill go into Vietnamese noodle soup, etc. Soups and stews are better the next day. Cold fried chicken is always good. And left over pizza is great. Had some of that forlunch today.

Stew and lasagna would be 2 of my favorite leftovers.  My wife is a bit of a master in the kitchen so many of our leftovers get repurposed into something else.  We rarely throw out any food.  My thinking is that if you like this, this and this there is a pretty good chance it will be good all thrown together. 

[scgargoyle]

Cold pizza and warm beer  :D

Some things do get better with age- pot roast comes to mind. I've been known to make it one day, and not even serve it until the next day.

[drobertson]

Ham and beans, cold fried chicken, with extra salt! and a steak samich with mayo and pepper,   david

[Left Coast Chris]

Bacon....... for BLTs!

[Hilltop366]

Seafood chowder with haddock, scollops, lobster, potatoes and what ever else she puts in there.

Its one of those better the next day things.

Panfried or broiled haddock reheated, I make a toasted sandwich with cheese and catchup.

I agree with pizza too.

Most anything that keeps me from having to cook. ;D 8)

Saturday night I had a 12 oz prime rib.  Pat had more roasted shrimp than she could eat so I helped her and ended up with about ½ of my prime rib in a to-go box.


Today I split it in half, laid the two halves on a bun and into the toaster for a quick warmup.  I had one fine prime rib poboy sandwich.

:D That was my theory when I was single.  A big pot of chili or spaghetti sauce went a long way. So did pot roast. Karen sometimes thinks I'm jerking her chain when I enjoy left overs so much, 40 years of batching taught me not to be picky. Mom would thinly slice roast beef and heat it up in the frying pan in it's own gravy. She couldn't figure out why I liked it so much.

[Texas Ranger]

I'm with DanG, most anything that is still edible, not particular.

[pineywoods]

Bannana Pudding,but there's seldom any left overs  ;D

[LeeB]

We had fried shrimp, broccoli slaw and left over potato soup for dinner tonight. I don't know that you could still call it potato soup though. I mixed in the remaining corn meal breading and the milk/egg wash from the shrimp, some chopped green onions and made hush tots. Still had some of that left. tomorrow morning I will cook some bacon and add that to the mix and make potato pancakes. will have the left over fried shrimp in a po'boy for lunch on home made rolls.

[luvmexfood]

Meatloaf.

[Magicman]

I am still thinking about Pineywood's "Banana Pudding".  That man just ain't right.  He knew full well that I did not have any banana pudding, and now I want some.   

[SwampDonkey]

pizza, chop suey (which is a word in Websters), stews, chicken or turkey goolash (my term :D ), pork tenderloin.  ;D

Canadian chop suey is with hamburg, mushrooms, macaroni, onion, pepper, spaghetti sauce, I also add black beans and cheeses, sprinkle a little sugar in the sauce. ;D
