Leftovers are a real blessing, especially when you’re a mom. Sometimes trying to figure out what to make for dinner is harder than actually making dinner! All of a sudden you’re the one responsible for what everyone eats, its A LOT!
The beauty of leftover is that you can re-purpose them and the prep work is basically taken care of.
I started making this when I began hosting Thanksgiving dinner and we were left with TONS of leftovers. I hate wasting food so I try to re-purpose leftovers into something new and exciting! I don’t like eating the same thing over and over, so this way I feel like I’m on an episode of “Chopped”.
I hope you enjoy this recipe, let me know what you think in the comments. Enjoy!
