Leftover Goodies
Posted

I'm a martinet when it comes to general waste. I don't like to squander food, energy, money, time or anything else related to the daily mechanisms of life. Every minute of every day is put to good use, as are the peripheral objects involved.
I'm particularly happy to make good use of leftover food. Prices being as they are these days, it doesn't make sense to waste any of it. I don't advocate the use of stale or spoiled food by any means. However, I'm careful to make one or more meals from a specific food item if possible.
The other day we had corned beef and cabbage for dinner. There was plenty left over, so I went ahead and prepared my own version of corned beef hash. To be honest, it was better than the original meal of simple corned beef.
Corned Beef Hash
3 TBS butter
In a skillet, sauté onion in butter. Add cooked corned beef, potatoes, cabbage, carrots and mushrooms; season with salt and black pepper to taste. Stir in beef broth; simmer for about ten minutes or until heated through. Serve. Note: For a thicker consistency, mix one tablespoon of cornstarch with water. Stir into hash until mixture thickens.
