I love it when leftovers lend themselves to the creation of a delicious meal that tastes completely different than the original dish. The grilled BBQ chicken we had for dinner last night was great on its own and the remaining meat can be used in many different ways. I used a leftover BBQ chicken breast…
Butternut Squash and Apple Pizza
When I arrived home from work today a sorry sight greeted me. It looks like Grimace the pumpkin has officially kicked the bucket. Fortunately the other Halloween decorations are not perishable.
