Make leftovers into salad
Green beans, Brussels sprouts, leeks…the list of veggies that can be transformed from hot, dinner side dishes into delightful, lean salads is long and varied. Today, challenge yourself to make a little extra at dinner tonight and save your leftovers for salad. When you wake up tomorrow, quickly toss leftovers with a homemade vinaigrette, and take them to work for a tasty healthy treat.

I try to make extra veggies and then put them in a container with salad dressing. The next day I make a bed of lettuce & fresh tomatoes then pour the leftover veggies onto it. Makes for a great meal!

I am making a 100% organic veggie dinner tonight (which is not that easy or that inexpensive)! I will double-down on the ingredients and enjoy the leftovers in a salad for lunch tomorrow. Thanks for the wonderful challenges!
