If I go back to May 2015, and especially after the Heart Attack in October 2015, there are going to be a rapid increase of Chapter Counts.
I actually thought of this idea of naming the food pictures with LeftOvers ‘The LeftOver Chronicles’ after the introduction of the first Chronicles, ‘The Poop Chronicles”.
(By the way, The Poop Chronicles #3 is being processed at this time and will be expelled soon!)
This installment of Chapter 1 in The LeftOver Chronicles was, as usual a creation at a meal time, and I was feeling lazy, yet with a burst of original creativity.
(As often occurs, the ‘BETTER HALF’ opted out and went for the ever ‘safe’ Green Salad.) [Don’t get me wrong, SHE IS a brave soul, she married me…. but ….]
But my ‘work of art’ tonight started with plain white corn tortillas baked crispy in the oven while resting on the ‘silly cone’ liner or what ever you call that red thing in the picture. It is great for baking in the oven and clean up is quick.
Here come the left overs….
The Eggplant from the Pizza the other night had a little more time to marinade, so I diced a few big spoon fulls in the the skillet on the stove top… along with mayacoba beans, rice, quinoa and some of the three bean stew Betty made the other day.
After the tortillas were crispy, I placed a layer of all the aforementioned items on the top, and stuck back in the 425 degree oven for about 5 minutes, then I placed the tomatoes, red onions and purple cabbage on top…..
and then, it happened ….
I saw the half of an orange sitting in the frig waiting for Bettys BREAKFAST tomorrow morning.
(She doesn’t know about this yet so keep quiet ok!?)
I diced the orange and spread it as far as I could on the finished products.
Good thing I wasn’t Russian.
(( get it?! … … … finnished>>>Russian?? ))
Ok, sorry ….
I did add a little HOT SAUCE before I grabbed the spoon and napkin and devoured all six delights!
I did mention I don’t Count Calories, Measure Protein, NOR FEAR CARBS!!
RIGHT!?

yum yum! (but it was a good thing I had the napkin AND spoon!)
OH! HERE is the picture !
They were sooooo good!
BUT NEXT TIME!…. more Oranges!
