Leftover Loves

Isn't it nice to have an evening off from cooking without having to order to go or spend money dining out? Isn't it nice when you can say, "We're having leftovers tonight," is met with an exuberant, "Yay!"

Well I'm going to give you a leftover remix that is sure to please your tribe. Our family recently had Chicken Teriyaki for dinner. It's a super easy meal to make with those frozen vegetable mixes. I also bake egg rolls or spring rolls to go with it and add a side of rice (brown, basmati, jasmine, etc.) and it's a complete filling meal. Well, after our Chicken Teriyaki dinner I put the leftovers away. It wasn't enough for another family meal so we could not have it again the following night.

An idea came to me to make the leftovers Chicken Fried Rice. The following night, I made a little more rice to add to what we had. Then cut the chicken up in bite size and smaller pieces. Another bag of frozen vegetables was added - this time a bag of broccoli florets. One egg was cooked up to add into the rice. There was another box of egg rolls in the freezer (love those BOGOs!) And the meal was ready for a remix repeat. It was loved by all AND we had enough leftovers to have it a second night!

Share your remix repeats with us (successful or otherwise!) We find leftover love stories some of the tastiest stories around. We can really sink our teeth into them.
