Leftovers

I've been doing a lot more cooking and eating lately than the blog reflects. Something I've been enjoying is finding ways to use up leftovers.

I am ashamed to admit, though I doubt I'm the only one, that I often find containers of leftovers buried deep in the fridge that end up in the trash.

I have also been trying to cook and/or prepare less. Instead of planning menus we've been enjoying, what my husband affectionately refers to as, "potpourri dinners." I have also heard the concept referred to as the "Kitchen Special"...just open the fridge and eat what's already in there.
