Leftover night is supposed to be an easy dinner night, but oftentimes I find myself spending more time heating up individual plates one by one, and then after babysitting the microwave for 25 minutes, the first plate is cold again!
This method takes the same amount of time – about 20 minutes – but is completely hands off and much more time efficient. I simply dump all the leftovers onto a foil-lined sheet pan and pop it in the oven at 300 degrees for 20 minutes.
As you can see, I literally dump the leftovers in little sections and that is it! When I have leftover corn, soup, baked beans, etc., I place them in an oven safe bowl and set that bowl on my tray as well.
If I’m worried something might dry out, I place a piece of foil over it to protect it.
At dinnertime, I simply set the tray on the table and everyone grabs what they want. Minimal fuss for me, and everything is hot at the same time without me standing around the kitchen waiting on the microwave!
