When we were dating, Lauren was astonished by the amount of food that I wasted. Leftovers were routinely dumped in the trash, but now, I realize that she is an artist, a kitchen creator. Leftovers became new, dinner was always good, and the food budget went further than the garbage can. Lauren, the "Picasso in the Kitchen," re-creates food by knowing how to mix, match, and blend flavors of leftovers to create simple, delicious meals. We saved food, money, and time due to her ability to craft a new dining experience out of yesterday's meals. Please take a moment to heed her advice; your wallet and your stomach will thank you.
