meh you work it in new dishes
Exactly right. My husband calls me the leftovers queen.
For those who don’t know how to use leftovers, here’s what I do. I like leftovers a lot, but usually not for dinner the next night. So I skip a day, and then use the previous days leftovers in a new dish.
As as example, I used grilled chicken and serve it Thai style. Two nights later, we use it with Mexican or Italian seasonings. If the seasonings are already added, we make a salad and use it as the topping.
With a steak or ham dinner, we use that sometimes as breakfast in the next day or two. There are lots of ways to get creative. Don’t be afraid to try new combinations or new ingredients.
