Recycled Foods

Ten days of cooking in the new kitchen, the new fridge filled up and time to recycle some of the leftovers. Here are three Kitchen Tips on recycling foods.

Recycled Pasta

You have leftover cooked pasta and leftover sauce, why heat up and eat when you can turn them into a more exciting meal? Mix the cooked pasta and sauce, sprinkle with parmesan cheese, and bake on 350 for 30 minutes. A delicious crunchy top yet soft inside baked pasta dish!

Recycled Stew Sauce

 

Nice leftover lamb stew sauce filled with spices, tomatoes, onions and chard. Bring to boil, turn off the heat, add a cup of couscous and let it sit for 20 minutes. A flavourful couscous dish is now served!

Recycled Vegetables

Few leaves of lettuce not enough for a salad, half a dozen heads of Brussels sprouts not worth cooking with anything, and two stalks of celery wilting away. Chop all, fry some onion and garlic in olive oil, add the vegetables, sprinkle with salt and pepper, cook for five minutes or so, squeeze some lemon juice on top and enjoy!
