    I like making a chili and freezing the left overs in an icecube tray, then poping them out and storing the chili cubes in the freezer. Like, it will basically last forever in the freezer, and this way it’s pre portioned and I can just nuke how ever much I want at some indeterminant time in the future.

    Works well with any similar kind of sauce.

      Ice cubes of chili? Either I eat way to much or you are very much more behaved with portion control and eating several times a day.
      I’m pro one meal, eat until full… fast till I pick a time a time to eat the next day. Then again if I made chili I’d put garlic/onions in the pot bottom first, then meats to brown, then all other ingredients. Cook it all in one pot then when done eating, put the pot in the fridge on a heat mat. Eat the same thing until it’s gone.

      Which would usually only take a 2-3 days.

      Having someone else in the house and having to make other meals makes meals so much harder…

      “We had that yesterday” - apparently what many other people say.
