Homemade T.V. Dinners

Remember the days when we had T.V. dinners? It was usually when we had babysitters or our parents were too busy to make dinner. Well now, we can have our T.V. dinners again, but with more of an accomplishment!

After dinner, I almost always have leftover vegetables, so I put them in a jar and save them in the refrigerator. I do the same with leftover meat and potatoes. Mashed potatoes make a great lunch addition.

Take small glass bowls and put the leftovers in them. When I was taking Home Ec, I was taught that the food on the plate had to be different colors and textures. This is somewhat easy to do if you have a variety of leftover food. You can use up your leftovers and at the same time provide a halfway nourishing meal!

You could even add leftover peach or cherry cobbler or apple pie to this dinner!
