Making do with what you have on hand...

So I have a few items in the fridge that really need to be cooked/eaten so they aren't wasted but they're kind of mismatched and I dunno what to do with them....spicy sausage, baby spinach, cucumbers, tomato, and sliced mushrooms...what do you do with that?!?! I don't want pizza, was thinking maybe a stir fry of some sort? Or something sausage-y with a salad? I need ideas lol

You lost me at "I don't want pizza"...

I did the tortellini "stir fry" and it was ahhhhmazing, and promptly disappeared before I could even take a pic...imagine that!

Pizza was the first thing that came to mind here, then I got to the "No" part… Pasta? Add an onion and slice up, chop up everything (except the cucumber) and fry it up. Serve with grated cheese over pasta. The cukes can be a salad on the side.

I do dry-ish pasta dishes like that all the time, it's actually quite nice!

Bahaha I have pizza dough rising as we speak... Ironic timing huh?

Well, I kinda inspired myself here a bit yesterday evening. I'm off to make pizza for dinner tonight. I kinda feel that I have to now!

YES! I can shop in Ireland!

I would cook up the sausage and make a salad, but I like salads and mix all sorts of stuff in them
