Extra Inspiration for Extra Ingredients
We’ve all been there: no matter how perfectly you plan, there always seems to be a little extra of some ingredient left over. Guess what? That’s good news! That means you have plenty of opportunities to create something amazing at the dinner table. In fact, strategically stocking up on certain staple ingredients is a fantastic way to get more for your money on those big shopping trips. If you find yourself with some extra chicken, spinach, tomatoes, or even pasta, you can find plenty of delicious ways to use them up right here.
Cheers to Chicken
Leftover chicken is one of the secret weapons of the kitchen. It’s a huge time-saver, and since you prepared it perfectly the first time, it’s a flavorful central ingredient. So why settle for simply reheating yesterday’s chicken in the microwave? Instead, create something bold and flavorful like One-Pot Creamy Chicken and Roasted Red Pepper Penne. Smooth tomato sauce with just the right amount of spice transforms the chicken into something a whole lot more flavorful. Or try something totally different, like Chicken-Bacon Alfredo-Stuffed Crescent Ring. It’s an unexpected way to serve up classic chicken alfredo, every bite bursting with rich, complex flavors.
