Leftovers and Inventive Dinners

Other times, you may end up with extra meals and want to make them last. Here are some ideas to use up those leftovers:

Home Chef's Steaks and Eggs

When entertaining and extra steaks are made, freeze or store them away. When you're in a hurry and don't feel like cooking, grab a couple of steaks. Here's a quick and easy way to enjoy them:

Heat up a cast-iron skillet and cut some veggies for a side salad. Cut thick slices of bread and toast them if they are a day old. Bake them for 2-3 minutes if they are still fresh. Add steaks to an oiled skillet and add 2 eggs per person on top of buttered bread or toast. Turn the eggs over once they are done. Remove the steaks and let them rest for a couple of minutes. Add the salad onto the bread and top with the eggs. Season it to taste. Enjoy your 350gm steak sandwich, medium-rare, with eggs sunny side-up, in just a few minutes! Perfect with a strong black coffee on the side!

Just a skillet, a fish slice, and a cup to wash up, all on paper plates that can go in the trash. Quick and easy!
