Leftover Beef Stew
Ingred-
Leftover Beef skewer ingred.
Leftover Vegie Tray remains
Water to cover
Cook on low all day, than enjoy :)
I had a lot of leftover vegies and beef chunks from our BBQ so I threw it all in the crockpot the next day for dinner. Yum :) Things were so busy that I didn't get to take any food pictures but I have a couple recipes for you.
Super easy crock pot shredded BBQ Chicken
Ingred.
5 frozen chicken breasts
1-2 bottles bbq sauce
(how easy is that huh? :)
Now I put my ingred. in the crock pot the night before, about 11pm, on low and left it overnight. At about 11am I opened it up, removed the meat, shredded it with a fork, then added it back in for a couple more hours on low. Because the chicken was frozen I didn't add water, I didn't want it to get too runny. It was perfect served on large kaiser buns. There was none left after the bbq.
Now for dessert my Hubby wanted Tiramisu, But I couldn't find ladyfingers when I went to the grocery store that usually has them & I didn't feel like driving all over looking for them so I concocted my own recipe that my sis named-
Black & White Trifle
Ingred.-
1 pkg chocolate wafer cookies
1pkg softened cream cheese
1 small pkg white chocolate instant pudding mix
1/2 cold milk
2 containers cool whip
Beat the cream cheese, slowly beat in the pudding mix, then the milk.
Beat until smooth, fold in 1 cont. of cool whip, whip it :)
Place a layer of cookies on the bottom your trifle bowl, add a layer of the cream cheese mixture, than a layer of cool whip, than a layer of cookies. Repeat until ingred. are gone.
Top with crumbled remaining cookies and keep overnight in the fridge.
This turned out really good, next time I make it I think I will double all my cream cheese ingred. except the cool whip. The way it was it only went about 3/4 the way up in my bowl. Because it sat overnight the cookies softened up, this reminded me of like a cookies & cream pudding or ice cream. Yummy :) Next time I will take pictures I promise!

I love the idea of using leftovers to make stew! The barbeque chicken and trifle sound good, too. And yes, I want to see a pic of that trifle next time you make it! I'll bet it was really pretty.
I left an answer to your question in the comments on my cupcake post, did you see it? I love making the filled cupcakes, it's so much fun and you can go crazy with fillings. I'm thinking about trying a sweetened cream cheese filling in muffins, next. Not sure if they'll be delicious or gross, but I want to try it!
I wanna see the trifle!! Give me a bowl of "lefovers" stew and pics of the trifle...then I'll be happy!!!
It all sounds wonderful, Lisaloo!! The trifle however is my very favorite.. do you have a picture? Id like to try..

This post is making me a "trifle" bit hungry! Ha Ha Ha Ho Ho, gee, I crack myself up sometimes. Loving these recipes!
Yum to all of it! I'm going to have to try your BBQ chicken. It couldn't be simpler!
Every time I come to your blog, I get hungry! Yum! I need to cook more! I just get so lazy and end up throwing something together at the last minute.
Erica that is exactly how it goes here most of the time. I'm lucky if I get 2-3 meals a week planned ahead.
