Using up your leftover food can save you money as well as time so for today’s round up post I thought I’d share 20 ways to turn your leftovers into a whole new meal….
One of the things that makes me smile when I think about my lovely old Nana was how she could whip up a meal in the kitchen from practially nothing. There was nothing wasted and anything she didn’t use for one meal was incorporated into the next one – she really knew how to work those leftovers.
For years, I didn’t even think about leftovers – if it wasn’t eaten then it went in the bin (I know, I’m hanging my head in shame) but when I started meal planning that all changed and now I have plenty of recipes specifically to use up leftovers!
