Summer is a difficult time for me in the kitchen. I feel less inspired to look through cook books and turn on the oven. It also seems that we are always running low groceries. I think all of the outside activities results in bigger appetites.
Last week I found myself scavenging through the fridge to put together dinner. I had just a little bit of this and a little bit of that. What came together was surprisingly received by the whole family. With a bit of chopping, dicing and arranging, the kids loved creating their own salads. In the end there wasn't a scrap left.
What are some quick meals you are able to pull off from what you have on hand?
Leftover pasta(tortalinni) with ham chunks(frozen in tiny cubes) and sprinkled with cheese. I had no energy tonight so that is what I pulled off and the kids inhalled it!
