Tonight For Dinner...

Tonight for dinner, I decided to use up some stuff I had in the freezer and fridge.  I also, picked up some stuff from the ward thingy.  I actually tried jicama for the first time today - it's alright.  I don't think I would ever crave it though.


 So, here's my leftover whatever is in the fridge and freezer meal.  In the left corner is one of those cool round zucchinis stuffed with chicken stuffing and sauteed portobello mushroom. 


Chicken wrapped in phyllo dough leftover from a berry tart I made yesterday.  There is a layer of some more sauteed portobello mushrooms with creme fraiche between the phyllo and chicken. Homemade mashed potatoes (before the potatoes go bad) with yummy homemade gravy just from a leftover half can of chicken stock with shallots and thyme, salt and pepper and a little bit of cream to smooth it out.

The carrots were YUMMY!  They are orange glazed carrots, because I have a little leftover orange juice and wanted the container out of the fridge and into the trash.  Just sauteed the carrots with butter, salt and pepper, then poured in the orange juice and let it reduce to a glaze.  It was a delicious meal for a bunch of leftover, get rid of this and that type of meal.
