Leftovers. Unappealing to some. A repeat of the same ol' thing by some. Or a totally new and exciting meal by others!
For instance - I like to make too much rice. It's a good excuse to make a quick Spanish rice the next day. Or - depending on the meat I had the day before and if there is some leftover - stirfry over rice. Even re-heated in chicken broth with veggies.
Not enough stew to go around? Serve it over rice or noodles.
Warm leftover rice with chunks of ham, onions and carrots.
Open a can of kidney beans add rice and flavorings - easiest red beans and rice you'll ever make.
Combine leftover rice and whole kernel corn, chopped red and/or green bell pepper, diced onion and stuff tomatoes.
Add rice to your tomato soup on a cold day.
Use it in a casserole with leftover meat (or go meatless) and even leftover veggies! Add broth, a can of condensed soup of choice, top with cracker crumbs or bread crumbs and dot with butter. Or use toast points!
What are some of your leftover ideas??
