Summary

Intentional Leftovers or “Next overs” might just be the answer to faster weeknight dinners that don’t involve hours of cooking each weekend. You’ve heard each Meghan and Stacie make the case for meal planning and meal prep, but this week’s guest David Tamarkin, Epicurious’ Digital Director and Author of Cook90, brings a new idea to our virtual dinner table: cook once and eat twice at every opportunity with intentional leftovers. This simple concept is game-changer for meal planning and prep —, especially for busy parents. We talk with David about High-Intensity Interval Cooking, which staples make the best leftovers (and maybe which make the worst), plus he tells us how beans gave him a glimpse at parenthood and how Intentional Leftovers can help you create a cooking cycle that works, even when you don’t feel like cooking.

Okay, we just had a friend, one of my daughter's friends over for a play date recently, and they came back from a Girl Scout event around lunchtime, and everyone was hungry.

So I made lunch.

I made grilled cheese and like a veggie fruit platter kind of snacky thing.

eat the lunch that you made. It's like, oh, okay, trying to take her as seriously as possible.
