When life gives you leftovers…

make Sunday brunch!

Steak & mushroom omelette with sauteed mild Italian sausages & zucchini and warmed ciabatta.

Serves two:  2 eggs, 2 egg whites, splash of skim milk, s&p, sprinkle of dill.

Cook in a sprayed non-stick pan until firm and fill with browned steak, onions and sliced mushrooms and a sprinkle of old white cheddar cheese

The baguette got a little hard overnight, so I sliced it up and spread a little Becel between the slices.  Wrapped in foil and heated in the oven while the omelette cooked.

Served with Starbucks Christmas Blend that I picked up on Saturday…

Yummy for the tummy!

Later, I turned the leftover chicken into enchiladas!

Quickly poached the chopped chicken in a non-stick pan with some of the ‘failed’ fondue chicken broth and finished off with some of my homemade Mexican seasoning

Mashed some navy beans

Added the chicken and shredded it…

Mixed with a scoop of salsa, a splash of enchilada sauce, about 1/2 oz of shredded part-skim mozzarella, and some green onions…

Rolled the filling into 6 small corn tortillas

Sprayed and lighted coated a small glass baking dish with enchilada sauce and laid the rolled tortillas in line…

Topped with remaining sauce and sprinkled with another 1/2 oz of mozza and the last few green onions…
