Hi,

I made some Mexican mince chilli a few days ago and am wondering if it will still be ok to eat. I am usually an "eat it within 48 hours" girl but I know my Mum would keep leftovers longer than that. Need to plan something else for tomorrows lunch if I have to bin it!!

Thanks :)

The smell test works wonders!  But my guess would be a few days and your chili is just fine.  I sometimes keep chills and casseroles in the fridge for a week once everything is cooked and have never had a problem with it.

I generally use meals with tomatoes and chiles within 4 or 5 days or freeze them.  I mainly stick to this for all foods and love having a full freezer with a variety of foods to choose from!
