Consuming leftover meals is a great way to make sure that food doesn't spoil, but also to save money. Taking leftovers to work for lunch the next day ensures you don't spend money on going to a restaurant which can add up quickly when done on a regular basis.
However, placing the leftovers in the refrigerator by leaving the food in whatever it was cooked in is annoying. Instead, take the extra step and distribute the food into smaller portions and place them into individual containers.
Say you make a casserole of some sort. If you're like me and you don't like to cook, you make a large-enough casserole for dinner so that you can have leftovers and not have to make another meal the next day. Once you've eaten your casserole for dinner, divide up what's left and put it into separate, smaller containers for lunch the next day. Doing this makes it incredibly easy to grab right before leaving for work in the morning. Also, it allows you a bit of portion control.
Don't be lazy: take the extra step and split it up before calling it a night.
