wonderful ideas to use the leftovers
An easy way that I've found to use leftovers is to make a tortilla española. Brown onions in a skillet, add chopped potatoes, and then leftovers once the potatoes are done. Pour beaten eggs (like you would if you were to scramble them) over the food in the pan, and let it cook over medium-low heat until the eggs are cooked through. Uses leftovers of any quantity, and kids like it too!
