Scrumptious Sunday: Cook once, Eat thrice-Caribbean Nights

Nothing beats stretching leftovers into several meals, but it's particularly helpful when we are tired or when we are trying to avoid heating up the kitchen.  (Thank god for the break in heat here in the Northeast!)

Last week's menu included one of my favorite slow cooker dishes, Caribbean Nights. 
Here's a run-down on how we made it work for several meals.

Here it is the first night with salad and rice noodles on the side.


And the second night as an entree salad...

and, finally, it appeared on night three as a wrap or burrito!

Final thought: Getting creative with leftovers helps to encourage using them up!
