LEFTOVERS! It’s kinda my thing. I basically made my Special Potatoes last night. Had a small crowd so I had leftovers. I dolled them up with some sour cream and cheese and a fried crust on bottom, compliments of my iron skillet and a hot oven. I would’ve used bacon but I used it up already. My Special Potatoes have a stick of butter in them so keep that in mind when you prepare. If necessary, add melted butter to the mix to really get the full effect lol

I'm an army brat with a Cajun mother and an Irish dad. I'm married to the love of my life, David, and we have 2 daughters and 2 grandchildren. I've been a barber for 40 years. Im an old fashioned, old school cook and my recipes are basic. I change them up all the time.Since finding out I’m diabetic I’ve had to rearrange old habits. Any recipe I have can be made the old fashioned way OR replaced with lower carb options. Just ask and I’ll tell you what has worked for me.I’m the self proclaimed queen of the leftover. I have issues with leftovers looking back at me with the same sappy look they had the day before. Can’t do it. My super power is turning what I find in my fridge into something I want to eat. I work so much better under pressure. I live for shortcuts and not having to run to the grocery every day. Work with what you have. Adapt and overcome. Also, the less dishes, bowls, and pots I hafta use, the better. Hope some of these recipes work out for ya!
