Tuesday's meal is often leftovers. Last night's was built around cold chicken from Sunday's roast. It's been a long time since we had a cold meal. The wind of the last few days has abated and the evenings are not quite so cold.
The rice left over from Monday's jar supper became a salad with chopped peppers, red onion and olives. My mother called it a Nicoise salad, but as my cullinary explorations have shown, it isn't. I also admit that I am not fond of rice or rice salad with mayo, so this is as close as it gets for me. The Husband, on the other hand, lurves rice. My little bowl was a sop.
To the green salad, I added the leftover roasted butternut and steamed green beans.
I dressed both salads in a vinaigrette made from the olive pickling brine.
Yay for the warmer weather and for leftovers that make the supper-making super easy.
Until next time, be well

- re-vamping old recipes. As I do this, I plan to add them in a file format that you can download and print. If you download recipes, buy me a coffee. Or better yet, a glass of wine....?
- and "re-capturing" nearly two years' worth of posts.
