I made some tomato sauce over the weekend to serve over some baked chicken, and I've found myself with a lot leftover. It's kinda basic, with garlic, mushrooms, carrots, and celery. I've already used up some of it by mixing it with ground sausage for stuffed peppers, and I was hoping for more ideas to try and get 1-2 more meals out of it. I'd also like ideas that don't involve pasta, since that feels a little too obvious and I want to be a bit more creative if I can.
Watching beef prices rising like some kind of memecoin, its just insane. I know mass cattle farming is terrible and we should eat less. But this was kinda the last straw. Just cant justify the cost anymore.
Edit it was 90/10 from safeway
So I have a freezer bag in my freezer where I collect scraps to make into stock. Chicken backs, carrot peels, onion trim etc. But I’ve realized that most of the bones from the meat we eat end up on peoples plates. Bbq rib bones, t bones, chicken bones from roast chicken etc…
Is there any reason to not take those and add them to the frozen stock scraps?
