I have been asked to maybe do a post for those who are alone or maybe just have two to feed now. Well, I always had two - but always made lots of extra. Hubs was a huge fan of leftovers. That was always lunch, sometimes breakfast, and maybe dinner. He wasn't picky. I was so fortunate.
I went a long time just having a sandwich or a salad - no desire to cook. Now I do cook and enjoy it.
I keep it simple and very frugal. No busters here!!!!!!
Today will be a lot of pics and ideas of things to do that are tasty and frugal. Ways of using leftovers in new ways. ENJOY
CHILI - top - over rice with sour cream and fresh tomatoes. Bottom over hotdogs with chips and veggies. I love chili over baked potatoes as well. I make taco salad with it and even add to nachos.Chili over corn bread waffles!Sliders made with biscuits! A small can (indiv. size) of beans all jazzed up
Biscuits with sausage gravy and a scrambled egg. Breakfast is always an economical dinner.
Still extra biscuits were eaten with butter and jelly for a snack on a later date!
A very small pork loin with potatoes, carrots and a can of diced tomatoes. Made in slow cooker.
Leftover pork and veggies with peas and seasoning and pasta added to make lo meinTaco flavored meat with beans added and served over tator bites. Kind of like nachos - tot-chos!!!Added rice to leftover taco meat and beans - topped with corn chips and sour cream.Fish stick soft tacos and chips. Topped with slaw mix and ranch dressing.Nice salad and a tuna patty (make like you would salmon). Super healthy.2 smoked sausage links, a tad bit of kraut (found in frig) and mashed potatoes
Leftover potatoes made into potato cakes Made of meal of them and had some left to freezeRoll-ups. Add meat, cheese and veggies you want - dressing - roll it up and eat. Can make with any type of filling - breakfast ones are great too. Add scrambled eggs, cheese, bacon - whatever you want.

There you go. A few ideas - to maybe help you decide on something different. Easy cooking, low budget, tasty, and quick to prepare. Doesn't get much better than that!!!!
Just remember - you don't have to complicate things. As long as you are full and the food tastes good - that is all that matters!!
I hope this gives someone an idea of something they can make for fun and new!!!!
ENJOY!
