Sammies for Days · Cook-Forward Week — Every Dinner Feeds a Sammie
the kitchen where nothing gets cooked once. This week is built backward from lunch — every dinner deliberately makes extra, and the leftovers become the next day's sandwich on the Bread of the Week. It opens with the dish David asks for — chicken in a white-wine-and-caper sauce over thick noodles — and the Eggplant Rollatini baked ahead so tomorrow's lunch is already done. A roast chicken midweek is the sammie engine, its carcass becomes soup, and Carrot Cake lands one night for dessert.
