Did you bring home too much food for the Easter weekend?
A big food weekend like Easter often means that there are leftovers of cooked food left in the refrigerator along with slightly different types of ingredients. Often, the leftovers from one and the same dinner are not enough for another dinner, but together with some new ingredients or by adding several leftovers from several different dinners, you can conjure up a good meal.
Don't throw away the leftovers, they can be a good basis for a whole new meal.
Are there any uncooked eggs over, maybe some cheese edges and some different kinds of vegetables that need to be used up? Then you can make a good and moderate omelette. Potatoes can be diced and fried with chunks of chicken and some slender root vegetables and pips so you have a wonderful homemade pudding pan. Herring can be put
on bread together with sliced potatoes. Top with sour cream or crème fraiche and cut over some chives so you have a good and tasty lunch sandwich.
Look at what you have
Look through the fridge and pick up a little of each, so you can make a pick meal of slightly different dishes. When the leftovers need to be eaten, not everyone around the table must eat exactly the same. Serve everything that is left in the fridge and pantry and make a lovely pick buffet. Cook some pasta, serve bread, butter and cheese as an accessory. Some leftovers may be able to freeze in and make food boxes off. Perfect to make that night when you can't cook dinner. Think creatively so you minimize food waste!
