Growing up my mom would cook a meal on Sunday and make enough so that it would last for a week!  I do the same thing but typically I try to find other ways to enjoy the leftovers. For the first night I made chicken thighs with black beans and rice.  Day two it was burritos! 

I use my pressure cooker at least once per week in the fall. Most of the time I am making subtle tweaks to recipes that I love. In this dish I used canned mushroom soup to change up the flavor. It was really really tasty!
