Leftovers - in your opinion, how long do they stay good? I'm talking cooked veggies, meats, chicken, and fish? I can't consider more than 2 or 3 days, but I wanted to get everyone's opinion. It can be tough cooking for one or two!!

Well, I'm a little bit of a psycho with this, lol, if something is more than 48 hours old I won't eat it....but I am sure it is probably good at least for 3 days, some people even go further than that.

Properly stored & properly reheated, they will keep 7-10 days (or more) - and I know this based on a Food Safety/Food Born Illness Univ. class......

Once you cook something - you can always put the portions in a full meal style in a container & freeze it - that way, you have a full meal already prepared, ready to go....

Yeah.. I used to be this way too... then I had to get over it real quick when I had no time to be cooking chicken every day to accomodate how much I Was eating....
So I have eaten cooked chicken up to 7 days in the fridge, ww pasta and brown rice drained REALLY well 7 days. Now I have also stepped over some pre existing boundaries since this diet down.. like eating chicken that has been sitting out of a fridge for more then 5 hours.... Ore egg whites that are sitting on mydesk in a container after they are room temp, or just drinking them. I guess when you look at food as fuel and not for 'fun' you do things you typically would never dream about doing. Ohhh and I have a VERY sensitive stomach too!!!

Jens/T-

When it comes to leftovers, do you feel different between something you cook yourself and something you might bring home from a restaurant?
