On Sunday I made a Chicken Stir Fry for dinner.
I worked today and wanted to make something quick for dinner. I thought about several different options and then remembered I had leftover stir fry, but I knew it was not enough to feed three people.
Hmmmm.....what to do? What to do?
I decided to drain the broth from the can of soup and add it to the stir fry to s-t-r-e-t-c-h it to feed all three people. Well guess what? The one who said they didn't like this soup asked for second helpings!!
Ha, Ha, Ha, I love it when that happens. :)

“Use it up, wear it out, make it do, do without”
Of course you saved the broth?
ReplyDeleteDefinitely! :) I thought about that after I wrote my post too. lol
DeleteSmart move!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Shara. :)
DeleteToo funny about the one who doesn't like chicken with rice soup!
ReplyDeleteGood idea to add the drained soup to the leftovers. And now you have some wonderful broth to make some gravy with, or a pot of "homemade" chicken soup.
LOL, it was funny, Lili. I'll probably add the broth to some homemade soup to stretch it out. :)
DeleteGreat thinking there Belinda, anything with Campbell's just has to be good.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Fiesta. :)
DeleteIt's amazing what people will eat when they don't know what they are eating or think they know what they are not eating because they don't like it. Does that make sense?
ReplyDeleteGood job Belinda. Did you reveal what you did to this person?
Thank you, Mary Lou. No, I didn't reveal it to that person, but I might do that today. lol :)
DeleteAnd yes, that did make sense. :)
DeleteThere is nothing like creativity. How funny that the person who wouldn't eat the soup wanted seconds of the stir-fry. You never can tell!
ReplyDeleteSo true, Pamela. :) lol
