Let's Eat! Leftovers!

 Usually, we'll have some 'leftovers' from a meal.  My Granny always called it "Mustgo"!  Since there is just two of us, always there are leftovers!  The story is always "what to have for dinner?'  An age old story for sure!  Sometimes, the leftover meal is good; other times, it's just so so!  One night last week, we had leftover salmon--and two fresh peaches!  What to make?  I always remember making salmon patties when the kids were home--but I'd used canned salmon (which wasn't too pricey)  and we were given a case of salmon from an Alaskan couple who fished for salmon every year and canned it.  That was a treat for us but......then there is only so much salmon one can eat!  Think that's why they gave us a case--just to get it out of their pantry into ours.

Step One:  prepare the peach salsa--yes, thought that would be a nice addition to top the salmon patties.  Look up recipe--wow!  recipes calls for 1.5 lb of peaches--I have only two!  We'll improvise--a little of this, a little of that--mix it up well and let set for several hours to marinade the flavors.

After all, it's peach season!  This is a perfect recipe!

Come close to dinner time--make the salmon patties:  

My recipe--mix flaked salmon with little chopped dill, lemon juics, chopped onion, add bread crumbs if you have them, mix in egg--shape into patties and air fry!  Got to use that air fryer that I received as a gift last Christmas!

And here is our complete meal!  Salad on bottom tossed with light vignette, add some steamed buttered asparagus--hubby even proclaimed it as a delicious!

Now, to use that leftover smoked pork tenderloin--quick and easy!  Yes, Pork tenderloin slices on sliders, topped with slaw--didn't have cabbage but did have broccoli so made a slaw with that. and there is still some tenderloin leftover (ha ha!!)  More recipes to use with that delicious little porkie!!  We buy the pork tenderloin when on sale--cut into two pieces; place on the smoker till it reaches temperature recommended.  

a few potato chips as a side dish--really nice meal as well as quick to prepare!
