Leftover Tuesdays #10 Round-up

What did you do with your leftovers this month?  That’s the question Leftover Tuesdays ask and this month’s Leftover Tuesdays event has some really unique answers!  In fact, I suspect the culinary creativity of your fellow foodies will amaze you as we have some great entries this month. So, without further ado let’s see what everyone has been up to this month with their leftovers…

Image Laurie from Tastes Like Home: Mediterranean Cooking in Alaska constantly challenges herself to create amazing Greek Cuisine with ingredients available in Alaska.  She has nicely accomplished that with her transformation of leftover halibut into Savory Fish Cakes.  And as if the transformation isn’t enough, she also shares with us her approach to recording her recipe creations for future use!
ImageFoodie Heather from here at Project Foodie created not just one but two meals from leftover Kale.  First, she used Kale, that she forgot to put in its originally designated meal, to create a wonderful hash.   Then she transformed the leftover hash into a Potato, Kale and Tomato Frittata
ImageTigerfish from teczcape – an escape to food may have out done us all this month with this mouthwatering creation.  Using leftover wonton skin, unused almond butter, and overly ripe bananas combined with a hefty dose of ingenuity, Tigerfish created Banana Peanut Butter Wonton Pockets.  Now tell me don’t those look absolutely sinful? Wow!
ImageWindy from Windy's Food Corner in England has transformed leftover Lamb into a great Korma Curry Lamb.  Not a big lamb fan?  Windy says this dish is also great with leftover chicken – yum!
Image

Foodhunter over at The Food Hunter’s Guide to Cuisine had several unused portions leftover from her Thanksgiving meal - sausage and mushrooms from the stuffing along with parmesan and mozzarella from a lasagna. The transformation?  Pizza! Which incidentally is one of my favorite ways to use leftovers.  Foodhunter's pizza looks really good.

ImageJoel from Food Monkeys made a grand slam out of a roast chicken. Following the initial meal of sliced chicken breast, the other breast was converted into Cranberry Wild Rice with Roast Chicken Breast, the next night one chicken leg was the star in a Chicken Pot Pie, and the final night the other chicken leg was used for Curried Chicken Leg.  Wow!  Four meals from one $2 chicken. And he also had a great leftover creation pizza this month What leftover devotion! 
ImageAnd finally, my transformation of leftover turkey from Thanksgiving into  tasty, albeit not photogenic, enchiladas.  Trust me these Turkey and Mushroom Enchiladas with a Spinach Cream Sauce really tasted great despite their appearance! 

Thanks everyone for playing along with Leftover Tuesdays.  Can’t wait to see your next creations!
