Leftover Tuesdays #9: The Round-Up

Got leftovers and not sure what to do with them?  That's why Leftover Tuesdays is all about.  This month we have a couple of stir fry's, some pizza, a Shepherd's pie, a pot pie variation, quesadillas, and more uses for leftovers ranging from chicken to duck to turkey to cornbread stuffing.  Check out the great dishes everyone has made from their leftovers…

 

ImageWindy from Windy's Food Corner created Quick Chicken Stir-fry from leftover chicken.  While Windy doesn't have leftovers very often this dish doesn't show it!  This simple and quick stir-fry is a great use for leftover chicken or other fowl…
Image
When Foodhunter from Food Hunter's Guide to Cuisine couldn't figure out what to cook, a pantry raid did the trick.  The pantry yielded leftover spinach and tomato pasta, which combined with some leftover mozzarella, was easily converted into Pasta Caprese.
Image
Tigerfish from Teczcape prepared an absolutely beautiful creation from leftover Duck.  This "colorful as the rainbow" dish called Stir Fry Shredded Duck comes with a detailed discussion of the ways to eat Peking Duck.
Image
Foodie Heather from here at Project Foodie had an early craving for turkey that produced some extra cornbread stuffing.  Her goal was to create some "autumnal, comfort food, reminiscent of my childhood meals".  The resulting Shepard's Pie is definitely some good comfort food.
Image
From "The kitchen scientist with a white rat hubby!" who writes  "The discovery of a new dish does more for human happiness than the discovery of a new star" (and who also likes really long names) we have Pizzas.  Using a wide range of leftover ingredients and hamburger bun bases she created 4 unique pizza variations.
Image
Zlamuska from Zlamushka's Spicy Kitchen transformed not only a leftover but something many people simply throw away into Granola.  The leftover ingredient?  Okara which is a leftover you get from making Soy Milk!  This Granola is not only a great leftover use but also a healthy one at that…
Image
Joel from Food Monkeys converted leftover turkey, carrots, onions and sweet potato into an awesome pot pie variation called Turkey Herder's Pie. While he had me at the wonderful name, the inclusion of the sweet potatoes really pulled me in and I can't wait to make this one!
Image
Last, is my leftover creation Shrimp Quesadillas from leftover frozen shrimp, corn, and jalapeños.

As always a great set of leftover creations from foodies all over the world.  See you again next month where in the US we have our biggest leftover generating event of the year - Thanksgiving…
