Lately, I have been trying my best to remix leftovers into something slightly different. We have a bit of a problem around here with picky eaters. Isabelle is getting much, much better but the hubs is not an eater. I love to cook so this leaves us with an ever occurring problem. Lots and lots of leftovers. I have a hard time eating the same thing over and over, days at a time so unfortunately a lot gets thrown out. Being a child from a "clean your plate there are starving kids in Africa" family, it KILLS me to waste food. So..I have been doing my best and here are some of the results...
Left over steak becomes a steak nacho lunch
Left over mac and cheese with a little ham becomes Ham and Cheese Cups for Isabelle's lunch...

| Line muffin tin with 2 slices of ham |

| Isabelle adding the mac and cheese |
 |
| Bake at 350 for about 20 minutes |
In case you missed it, I made jalapeno chicken on the grill and then used the leftovers to make some quick wraps..
 |
| Jalapeno chicken take one |
 |
| Jalapeno chicken take 2 |
I used the chicken a 3rd time in some more nachos! We had some yummy sliders on the grill, but forgot the picture and ate them all..No leftovers there :) Then of course there is everything else...
 |
| Fresh baked blueberry muffins, my fav |
 |
| I was a bad girl that day |
 |
| Purple flower and butterfly pancakes |
 |
| Regular pancakes |
 |
| Sprinkle pancakes....maybe we are eating too many pancakes? |
 |
| Egg whites, rye toast, granny smith apple |
 |
| Isabelle's maple brown sugar oatmeal |
We had a little fun with spaghetti and hot dogs. Another fun find courtesy of Pinterest...
 |
| A good way to sneak in the good pasta |
 |
| Isabelle LOVED this and had fun helping make it |
I talk a lot about what Isabelle eats, but there is a new eater in the house. Mr. Jude drinks a lot of these bad boys...
He is also taking a stab at holding it all by himself...
And he had rice cereal for the first time. Before I know it I will be getting to try making baby food {please share anything you may know about this particular project}
Sometimes I get hungry and jump the gun, eating before I can take a pic so here is a little something I am calling...Aftermath...
 |
| A demolished baked potato |
 |
| Steak from t he grill |
 |
| Carrabas inspired olive oil and herbs |
So that's it, for the most part. Please share..What have you been eating?
