Food Watch: Helpful Hint: Double Duty Foods

Some foods are what I call "Double Duty" foods. These would be things like meats, leftovers, salsa, chicken broth. These are foods that you can make in a couple of different ways.

For instance: You have leftover turkey the day after Thanksgiving, and you can make a lot of different new recipes out of it. Or you make sausage, and then can make gravy our of the pan drippings. Or you decide you want chicken for dinner, so you make chicken broth out of the boiled chicken, and then use the cooked chicken for other recipes.

Using the same food several different ways helps a great deal to stretch a budget.
