Need to use up leftover cooked or raw vegetables this is your recipe! I use this with the leftovers from my Italian vegie stir fry. I use it to finish off the vegies from farmers vegie box( you know the vegies that worked their way down into the corner of your vegetable drawer). No matter how you get them this is the best way to get them out of the fridge and into your family. Not only can you use the borderline vegies but a way to use up the leftover sausage and bacon. But I have also used that lone leftover pork chop or piece of pork tenderloin. Not enough to make a dent in a normal recipe but great in this one. It can become a star. The bits and pieces in your freezer are welcome as well.

Really Good Banana Bread
I was not a fan of banana breads, nut breads, really most any quick breads. That is until I found this recipe years ago in Penzey magazine. I have made it so many times and made so changes to lack of an ingredients in the pantry that it has become mine ( at least in my brain).

Best Hash Browns ever!
We came across this recipe several years ago and over the years it has morphed many times. Herbs changed – bell peppers changed, added ans subtracted. Usually based on what was in the fridge at the time. This is a great recipe for cleaning out the freezer or vegetable drawer. I always save little bits of peppers etc in the freezer and since there are only two of us, the bag of potatoes is always too large so I boil them and then cube, cool and freeze. This combo works for these hash browns, roasty potatoes and vegies , soups and stews but I have even reheated the potatoes and mashed.
