Waste Not, Want Not!
Times are tough folks!!! Besides both my Gandmothers (who helped raise me) lived throught the Great Depression - so I hate to through ANYTHING away (esp. food!!!)
So...here are a couple of great ways to make the most of your time, money and thus your meals. Enjoy!
When I have a small amount of left over meat (steak or pork) I dice it up and then save it to make fried rice a day or 2 later. I usually use brown rice, as it is a healthier choice. I also make the rice a day or 2 ahead, which I understand is what the pros recommend. I add some, soy sauce, sesame oil, frozen peas and scrambled eggs to the rice. Yummy! All you need now is your favorite fresh veggies for a stir-fry and you have a complete meal! Yay!!!
Left-over Chicken gets diced and turned into chicken salad for lunch wraps the next day. Always tasty!
I am posting these ideas as I have used them both this week with the leftover chicken from my greek salad nite and the maple pork as well.
