Cooking Tip

Lowdown on Leftovers

• For an interesting side dish, stir-fry leftover spaghetti noodles until golden, then add uncooked scrambled eggs. Cook until eggs are firm.
• Leftover sausage and vegetables make a quick and tasty meal when stirred into prepared macaroni and cheese.
• Mix leftover crushed pineapple with applesauce for quick, refreshing salads.
• Chop leftover cooked meat and use it in salads, soups, stir-fries, dumplings, omelet fillings, stuffed peppers or acorn squash, meatloaf, pasta sauce, tacos or burritos. Or simply slice and use it for sandwiches, or combine with a sauce and serve over rice.
