Super frugal dinner
Tonight I made my dinner in the manner of Amy Dacyczyn's "refrigerator soup." The ingredients were:
appx. 1 c lentils, previously cooked and frozen
4 c chicken stock, made from a rotisserie chicken
appx. 2 c roasted root vegetables (onions, garlic, carrots, parsnips), leftover from Sunday
a handful of frozen okra from a bag I'm trying to use up (I found I disliked okra, so now I toss it in soups that cry out for something "green"--that way I don't really have to taste it!)
salt, pepper, cumin
And, to top it with, some leftover goat cheese--an idea I borrowed from English Major's Money.
The end result, while nothing I'd order repeatedly at a restaurant, was still pretty good! The broth was the best part--rich, earthy and brown.
