Oh dear…I have neglected my promise!  Don’t worry…we have been eating Homemade Gourmet all week…I just haven’t been mindful of writing about it!  So let me catch you up! 

Gumbo was dinner the night I last wrote.  I had been craving it since I had read a comment about one of you serving it and I needed something to make fast and easy after a long day at the office.  It was great!!  I had a friend come over and share, and while she was here I bagged up several 4m4m meals for her to take home and add her meat.  She was so excited! 

One night we had a variety of pasta dishes that we are ‘testing’ for the spring…they were yummy ~ more to tell in March!

Friday night was my daughter’s 18th birthday party (she turns 18 on the 30th…but this was the day we were all in town to have a party).  We didn’t have dinner that night because the party menu was a variety of finger foods.  Let me just say…the hit of the evening was our Enchilada Sausage Dip! (recipe in the front of our old slow cooker cookbook). 

Today was clean the fridge day…I had some cooked pasta bagged up from the earlier  ‘testing’ so I used it in the following ways.  I heated up some of the leftover sausage dip with a little milk to thin it out and had sausage enchilada pasta.  I heated up a can of diced tomatoes, some chicken broth and garlic basil seasoning  and added to it some of the leftover grilled chicken from the ‘testing’. 

It was all good and made for a nice lunch buffet! 

What do you do with your leftovers?

God Bless and Keep You,

Tami
