One Dinner, Two Lunches

MEATLOAF SLIDERS

If you can do it with burgers, you can do it with leftover meatloaf—sliders!

Corn on the cob? Why not? Husk it, nuke it, then stand it up in a thermos.

Pickled vegetables make an easy, tangy side.

MEATLOAF TACOS

Crumble warmed leftover meatloaf, then pop it in a thermos. Instant taco meat.

Remember bagel chips? They're back. And they're delicious with cream cheese and strawberries.

Recipe notes

Berberger Pasta

This comforting cheeseburger-inspired pasta from Kiano Moju is bolstered by berbere spice.

Spice-Grilled Pork Chops

A pinch of sugar in the spice rub ensures picture-perfect grill marks with layers of flavor.

Stir-Fried Phở Noodles With Beef

This dish is not only a quick meal option but also a practical way to use leftover phở noodles when you’re out of broth.

Beef Stroganoff Ramen

This traditional dish of beef, sour cream, and mustard may have originated in Russia, but it’s about time for a version with ramen noodles, don’t you think?

Mississippi Mud Cake

This cake was created from thrift and was supposedly named after its appearance, which reminded people of the muddy Mississippi River bottom.

Moo Ping (Thai Grilled Pork Skewers)

This version of pork skewers is made in the oven, which tastes just as good, but you could always throw these on the grill for a version closer to the original.

Okonomiyaki Tater Tots

Crispy tots topped with savory-sweet sauce, mayonnaise, furikake, scallion, and katsuobushi.

Chicken Croquettes

Rather than breaded and fried as you might expect croquettes to be, these are something more akin to a seared chicken salad patty.
