Apparently I can love leftovers for quite a while.
Remember that tomato soup that morphed into something like pizza stew and was going to become something like lasagna? It didn't. It became something else.
B was supposed to go to WLC (warrior leadership course or something like that), but he couldn't make weight. So he's back on a diet. He uses a coffee cup method. I used to use Bento Boxes, because they're cute and fun, and I like to play with my food. His coffee cup method is the same principle of portion control, just less entertaining.
So, I wanted something yummy I could put in a coffee cup and didn't require me to go to the store, because quite frankly we were broke, and payday wasn't until yesterday. I still have tortillas, the leftover soup, some leftover soup beans, and that sausage-cheese-salsa dip.... hmmmm.
I dumped it all in a pot (except the tortillas), and let it simmer together for a little while.
The initial dumping looked pretty gross.
Yeah... ew. I was sincerely hoping it would taste better than it looked. It looked better after it all melted in together. But the first view was a little off-putting.
Then I took the tortillas and folded them into a lightly oiled muffin tin. I baked them at 400 until they started to brown on the edges.
I steamed some rice, then layered rice, tortilla cup, soup-stuff, rice, tortilla cup, soup-stuff. It was good. I have no idea what to call it. Coffe cup lasagna? Heck if I know, but it was most assuredly edible. lol
