Leftover cooked food refers to any cooked food that remains unconsumed after a meal or cooking session. It typically refers to food that has been prepared earlier and stored for later consumption. Leftovers can include various dishes such as cooked meats, vegetables, grains, soups, stews, or any other cooked food items that have not been consumed entirely during the initial serving.
The term "leftovers" is commonly used to describe food that is kept for future meals or repurposed in different ways. Leftover cooked food is often stored in refrigerators or freezers to maintain its freshness and safety. It can be reheated, incorporated into new recipes, or used as ingredients for other dishes, reducing food waste and providing convenient meal options.
