Now that I'm cooking three meals a day, seven days a week (3/7?) we have a fridge FULL of leftovers.
And as tomorrow night is date night - and I KNOW Hubster will take me out for date night since he totally blew me off last Friday - this stuff needs to be eaten, post-haste.
So here's the dilemma: How to tie together roast pork, roast chicken, barley salad, biscuits and gravy, and fruit salad.
I guess I'll freeze the gravy and serve the biscuits... OOOO!!!! No! I'll put the pork on the biscuits for breakfast tomorrow with poached eggs...sort off Eggs Benedict, but more like Eggs Dumpster because their primary purpose is to use up leftovers. With the fruit. Brilliant.
So tonight, roast chicken, the barley - I could saute green beans in butter, shallots and thyme - to tie that mess together. Loving this idea.
This is like playing Door Knock Dinners. All by myself...how sad.....
Tomorrow afternoon's project: Pierogi assemby. This house has run dangerously low on Polish carbs.

Welcome to my world. I/we pack three lunches a day on most days. And you would be AMAZED what leftovers can morph into, given the right motivation! And The Nice Kid has a microwave at school!
