Introduction

     I thought it might be a good idea to start off by explaining the purpose of this blog. I do not believe in throwing anything away just because we do not want it anymore. Either you find another use for it or find someone else who can use it. This philosophy goes double for food, especially in today's economy.
     If I had a dollar for every time I have been told "I cannot stand leftovers" or "My husband, and/or kids will not eat leftovers" I would be a very wealthy woman. I often have leftovers, but my husband and kids seldom knew it. I think I can show you how to take that leftover and create something completely new with it.
     Now there are some meals like lasagna that just can not be improved upon, but it freezes so well that it is not an issue. So next time the kids are off to some after school event and it is just you and the spouse for supper, nuke the lasagna and add some candles and garlic bread and you are all set for some quality time.
     So, what I will be doing here is, each week I will post both a recipe and what to do with any leftovers so that you and your family can enjoy them twice
