So many good cooks on this site! Anybody want to discuss how to repurpose leftovers?

Tonight we had Cuban sandwiches, using left over pork roast. Cut up the potatoes and onions from the roast and "fried" them in a skillet.

We will take leftover ribs and pull all the meat off. Then eat it on sandwiches the next day with jalapeño cheddar cheese. Sounds weird, but its good.

On the contrary, that sounds delicious!

Wife made tacos Tuesday. I used the leftovers as a pizza topping Wednesday. Probably wierd, but it was pretty good.

The best use of leftovers I've ever done -

Made these Sausage & Eggplant stuffed shells: Sausage and Eggplant-Stuffed Shells in a Tomato-Basil Cream Sauce Recipe : Emeril Lagasse : Food Network

There was extra stuffing, so I used it as a topping for pizza.

yowza it was good

The pizza idea is really good!!

My ex-husband didn't like left overs. My current husband says he doesn't mind leftovers, but he's the type of man who won't complain about anything.

Leftover bratts diced up and made into an omelette is pretty good.

Turkey delight is pretty good,take some left over turkey,a can of mushroom or tater soup,some peas and some ground pepper

add rice or diced taters if you want,most any veggies will work

works with most any left over meat

We do something similar (without the rice or potatoes) with leftover turkey. We call it creamed turkey and put it over cornbread. One of my favorites.

 

[governmentmule]

I just add the rice or taters when I am in the mood


and I pour it over cornbread too

First it was chili, then it was 2nd day old better chili, then it was chili dogs.

Don't know what it is but chili is always best after it's sat in the fridge for a night

Apparently the same goes for pasta salad.

The creamy stuff over cornbread is interesting. Typically we have tomato bases stuff over cornbread.
