I think that cooking is an experimental art form, and that all foods are better with tzatziki. I love to eat my leftovers cold, over the sink, directly out of the container. But I know most people don't, so this is an effort to remake them. Be inspired to make your own meals. And don't waste food.. -Crystal

Cooking With Leftovers believes in not wasting food, which leads to some really strange meals. But don't just make the recipes, make up your own. And don't waste food!
