Leftovers

While Adam was in town, we took a hiatus from making healthy, homecooked meals because a) Uncle Scott was also in town, so we took him out for dinner, and b) my kitchen became dismantled during all the packing and moving, so cooking at home wasn't really an option.

Now that we're back to our routine (and have had our usual Wednesday stop at the Allen St Farmer's Market), dinner at home abounds once more.  However, so do leftovers.  Personally, I hate leftovers.  I definitely am very American in my eating preferences, in that I want to have something different to eat everyday.  But, since I hate to waste and am trying to instill good habits in B, I used some of last week's taco ingredients and put a slightly more Mexican twist on things.  Sauteed onions, tomatoes, peppers and garlic along with refried beans and salsa (with a squirt of lime for good measure; hence, the scowl on her face...) made for some tasty leftover tacos.  Of course, now there are leftovers of the leftovers...
