Making over leftovers.

Hmm, what's in the 'fridge? Some leftover fried chicken and french fries? Sure, that's a light snack for one person, but we can turn it into lunch for two with some work.

 The chicken was easy. Shred it up, add minced celery, green onions, cilantro, and bring it together with mayonnaise and a dab of sour cream. Chicken salad. The fries... well, we can cut them up, toss 'em in a hot pan with some oil so they crisp up again, add minced onions and some generous seasoning, and we've got home fries. Perfect! Let's eat.
There you go. Chicken salad sandwiches and home fries, from table scraps. Just takes a little effort, folks!
