One thing I love is making something that will last all week with leftovers or be versatile enough to make multiple meals. Like a roast chicken. Cook it on Sunday and you could have a few meals out of it based on the size of the chicken.

Glamour’s September issue (on newsstands now) has a fun food piece with the women of Julie & Julia - Meryl Streep wrote a piece about how to make a roast chicken last all week, plus the story also features personal recipes from Amy Adams (guacamole) and Nora Ephron (a spaghetti dish).

And here is a sample of one of the great recipes you will get from the article:
