Kari,
Great problem solving! Glad you figured out what to do since you don't enjoy leftovers. I think that is one of the things I enjoy about one pot meals...I can make exactly what I need for a meal, and not have leftovers.

: cooking food ahead of time so I
: would have food on hand. This is
: huge for me since I am not a left
: over person. I have a hard time
: eating left overs. But I did well
: and ate all the left overs. On
: saturday I choose two or three
: recipes that I want to make
: (looking at new recipes) and on
: Sunday I head to the store to get
: anything I need to make the
: recipes.
: My first week I cooked all the food
: on Sunday for the whole week. Not
: a good thing. Things did not feel
: fresh and I ended up throwing half
: of it out. Now I cook through out
: the week right after I get home
: from work (before I do my
: cleaning). It has been working
: wonderfully.
: It has made a huge difference
: I am really enjoying putting on my
: apron (yes I love wearing my
: apron) and putting program
: friendly ingredients together and
: coming up with a wonderful meal.
: Some things turn out wonderful and
: some I won't make again. I have
: realized that i have to really
: love the food or I have a hard
: time eating it.
