Oddly enough, although Irish boarding school ruined me for several food categories, shepherd's pie was not one of them. I liked the version the school cooks (I use the term loosely 
) made, and I like my own. However, DH does not, so we don't have it very often.
Potato pancakes with mashed potatoes are great, and I make them fairly often.
So, what do you do with other leftovers? I just made a white (chicken) chili with the rest of the roast chicken, which went over well. It seems that a lot of people use up leftovers by piling them in a baking dish, and covering them with cheese - Hmmm ... sounds good to me
. Unfortunately, my poor deluded DH doesn't eat cheese duc), so that isn't an option I can follow. He also has totally different food memories than I do ... so comfort food for him does not equate to what I think of in that category. I've learned to adapt over 38 years, but I still sometimes feel like 
. He likes to try new things, just not too new. No that's not right. New is good. Leftovers (obvious leftovers) are not so good. I think it has something to do with growing up in post war Germany, at a time when food was still kind of scarce.
Any suggestions are welcome.
