On Cinco de Mayo eve, Z and I made these Roasted Veggie and Black Bean Burritos from Aggie's Kitchen (with a few tweaks, based off what we had in our kitchen...including using refried black beans). We washed the burritos down with some Skinny Girl Margaritas (much to Z's dismay).
Last night, I had a bunch of the roasted veggies leftover (sans beans) - and they were one day away from being past edible. I had picked up some whole wheat pizza crusts at the grocery store over the weekend, and we had some leftover goat cheese in our fridge. With those ingredients, a pizza was born.
The combination of the spicy roasted veggies with the cool, creamy goat cheese made this a delicious and innovative pizza. I enjoyed a slice alongside a simple green salad.
I was happy that we got to use these leftover veggies in a creative and successful way!
Are you a fan of leftovers? Why or why not?
Leftover pizzas is one of my favorite things to make! I usually make them on Joseph's flax pitas.
ReplyDeleteOooh, I'll have to try them with flax pitas next time. Thanks for the tip!
DeleteI love using leftovers for pizza, burritos or quesadillas. So easy and resourceful!
ReplyDeletelove leftovers! looks like an awesome pizza.
ReplyDeleteI love being able to repurpose leftovers like that. Much more exciting than having the same exact thing night after night.
ReplyDeleteI totally agree!
DeleteI love the challenge of making something out of leftovers. It looks like you had some good ones to work with!
