...when leftovers make a sensational lunch?
When Pam announced April's edition of Leftover Tuesday, I knew exactly what my contribution would be.
I've been on a panini kick for the last few weeks, despite their exorbitant retail price. When I whipped up Joe's Cocoa Chili Rubbed Chicken (itself a product of leftovers and pantry staples) last week, I knew that the two leftover breast fillets would make a sensational chicken salad.
I shredded the chicken, sliced up a shallot, added in a handful of dried cranberries and tossed it all with a tablespoon of mayonnaise. Piled the salad on some crusty wheat bread with a couple slices of avocado and a handful of spring greens. Warmed it up on the grill pan and served it with the ubiquitous broccoli salad.

In 2007 I cooked with quinoa to combat cancer.

Almost seems like the perfect storm of leftovers. I'm always amazed how many meals a single chicken can be used for!
You can make me left overs any day my dear.
