Refrigerator clean out:

Cooked a pan of brown rice~
Sautéed red and yellow peppers with shallots, added pieces of roasted chicken ~
Tossed in leftover homemade cream of mushroom soup, added ground sage~
Side of beets~
Made chopped salad with iceberg lettuce, tomatoes, carrots, black olives, feta~
Dressing- olive oil and red wine vinegar~
Lemon water to drink~
Dessert later- homemade sour cream/lemon cookies with hot cocoa~
Nothing fancy, but refrigerator has fewer leftovers and the meal tasted good.
