Leftovers

I do like leftovers and don't mind having them for several days in a row if necessary. I've made the basic corned beef recipe that most people make and find that recipe, blah. Recently I heard of a variation that I'd like to try sometime if I ever remember what it is. It's using horseradish/mustard as a rub and put the brisket in foil and cook it on low in the oven for about four hours. Or in the crockpot, but still have it covered in foil. I didn't bother buying the meat this year, but just found out it's still on sale till the end of the week, so maybe I'll try it yet this year. My husband doesn't like much horseradish, so I'd have to put less on his section somehow.

Me too, another night of corn beef and cabbage.

I make an Irish stew with dumplings and I do a big pot to last 3 days. Id have it on day 1 with the dumplings and on day 2 with batch bread and lashings of butter and the next day with potatoes mashed. It does me and hubby for 3 to 4 days. Economical moneywise and also time saving. Cant beat a good Irish stew .

I usually cook more portions if I am making any kind of curry. The leftovers, reheated over and over will get thicker and flavorful. In fact, I just cook chicken curry two days ago. I serve them with white rice. The next day, breakfast was bread dipped in chicken curry. Superb.

Some things are better that way.

I love leftovers. Many times I make extra on purpose just so I can have more the next day.

We had leftovers tonight also. Some things are better as leftovers than others, I think.
