Everything omelet Whip up a big frittata-style omelet for dinner, slice what’s left into lunch-able pieces and refrigerate, then pop into an insulated tote.

When I roast a chicken, we'll use the leftovers to make chicken sandwiches (in pita or bread or wraps) for variation or chicken salads or chicken burritos. It really helps with time management!
