It’s Thursday night which means it’s another REMIX night in our household. Each week usually on Thursday, I will look in the fridge and pantry and pull out any leftover meats, veggies that we need to use up and add in a few fresh ingredients. The outcome, never planned is always delicious.
Tonight I had about a cup of cooked chicken left from the week. Definitely not enough to feed a family of 5 so I stretched it out with veggies and a frozen bag of cauliflower gnocchi I stashed away.
Don’t be afraid to remix it at your house and let the goal to not have waste be your motivation. Check out my Highlights on Instagram for inspiration:https://www.instagram.com/stories/highlights/17966190886283232/
