Cook at home and brown bag the leftovers

In the era of rising prices, it is much easier and cheaper to eat at home. Here's how we pack our lunch for the next day.

Dinner is cooked the night before, keeping in mind the need to bring lunch the next day. Before dinner is served, a portion is set aside and left to cool on the countertop while dinner is eaten. It is then packed in the fridge and eaten for lunch the next day.


We have done this ever since getting married, and it surely has saved us a lot of money. Plus, I get gourmet meals at work!
