The Thrifty Chef - Use your Leftovers to Save Time, Save Money and Save the Planet

Are you looking to stretch your dollars? Eating leftover food works great if you:

- Are on a tight budget

- Want to create less waste

- Are concerned about the environment

- Want to cut back on spending.

Save Money: Eating leftovers lowers your grocery and fuel bill because you make fewer trips to the supermarket. The price of food is already high, add in the price of gas and you have a recipe for empty pockets. Limiting frequent trips allows you to put away the ATM card.

Save Time: Spend less time cooking and more time doing what you love. Who said you have to cook every night? Recycling leftover food allows you to stay away from the stove. By eating leftovers you can eliminate preparing a complete meal three nights a week.

Save the Environment: Spending less time in the car saves on producing CO2 emissions, as does using less electricity through cooking. Using leftovers means consuming less resources, creating less waste and is a responsible and smart way to live.

The Thrifty Cookbook shows you how to make the most of your leftovers through clever recipes and handy hints.

You'll learn how to use up your leftover meats including chicken, pork, ham, beef and lamb with exciting dishes such as Pesto Chicken Gnocchi, Pork and Gravy Stew, Shepherd's Pie, Mini Beef Pies and Ham and Split Pea Soup. Too much rice? Try our Brown Rice Summer Salad or Stuffed Tomatoes. Fruit and vegetables don't get left out either, with plenty of options like Peach Cobbler with Muffin Crust and Roast Vegetable Tart.

These delicious and thrifty recipes are sure to become staples in your kitchen!
