Leftovers – Whats for Dinner?

We all know that not wasting food is one way to save money, but the big question is…Do we know how to NOT waste food?  Here are some simple tips that will help you answer that question.Have you ever had leftovers but they weren’t enough for everyone or everyone is tired of eating the leftovers?  Why not turn your leftovers into a totally different meal?  Add some new ingredients and see what happens…

Left over chicken?  Why not cut it up, add some mac & cheese, corn and taco seasoning…put in a casserole dish, heat up and serve with nachos…

Left over vegetable soup?  Add a can of cream of mushroom soup to thicken the soup, add some frozen meatballs, pour into a casserole, sprinkle with cheese and now you have a casserole dish and maybe even a new family favorite.

Try some of your favorites with a twist.  Instead of using hamburger, try chicken or sausage.

You can always add peas, corn, cheese, carrots, mushrooms, etc to leftovers and give them a whole new flavor.  Hide those leftovers and they’ll get eaten every time.
