If you watch my videos over on YouTube, you know I’m all about using what we have in the kitchen! I hate to see food I’ve already purchased go to waste, so I’m often trying to use up open packages of things, short-dated items, produce on its last freshness leg, etc.
The funny thing about this is that often when I’m tossing the fragments together to make meals, I can come up with some of our favorite recipes by sheer accident! I took the time to write down this recipe I threw together from some items hanging out in my pantry and fridge because it was super easy and delicious!
