I was cleaning up a bit and noticed I had some lentils and rice sitting in the cubbard for a quite a long time.

So I put them together, it added up to a cup and a half, then I whacked up some onion threw em in some olive oil, added
some habanero powder, garlic, cumin seed, and let them cook a bit. Then I added a jar of salsa that also had
been sitting around, then I added chili powder and 2 and half cups of water.

Then I remembered I had almost a hole rotisserie chicken in the fridge since Sunday, so I threw that in.

It was only then I stirred it and realised, I have a lot of food here for just one person.

Oh well, I'll put it in the freezer and take it to lunch at work.

I consistently cook for at least 4 and there's only 2 of us.

When I make soup, we eat it for a week.

We make extra too because I end up taking leftovers for lunch. Gives me a break from a ham sandwich.
