Susan's Sunday Surprise

Sunday Leftovers

I've really started looking forward to cooking brunch on Sundays.  I take my inspiration from a woman I used to work for who has a cooking blog. She is the most amazing fly-by-the-seat-of-your-pants kind of cook I've ever run into.  She hasn't posted in a while but if you are an adventurous cook, you ought to check out her site at CSA Mom. 
 
Today I needed to use up a few things in the fridge so I decided to make it all worthy enough to sit on a tortilla shell.  I like flour tortillas and my hubby likes corn, so we keep both in the cupboard.
 
I made a homemade salsa with my ripe cherry tomatoes.  Now you gotta know there is love in that salsa if I'm standing there cutting cherry tomatoes into quarters. Hubby said maybe I should use the food processor next time. No. I wanted it chunky.
 
So the protein here is two hamburgers I had cooked a couple nights ago. I chopped them up and added them to some already sauteed mushrooms and some chopped up red pepper that was hanging out in the fridge.  If I had not had the burgers, I would have scrambled a couple of eggs or perhaps taken some hot links out of the freezer.  Or perhaps it would have been a vegetarian breakfast.
 
The hash browns were the only non-leftover item here.
 
Mmmmm!  My hubby loved breakfast today.  That's just what I was shootin' for!
 
What would you put in your leftover surprise?

Two Ingredient Lemon Bars

SO EASY ... I made these this morning and they are delish!

TWO INGREDIENT LEMON BARS
This is all you need:
 1 box angel food cake mix
 2 cans lemon pie filling
       (I used the 15 oz. cans)
Mix dry cake mix and cans of pie filling together in large bowl. Mixed it by hand.

Pour into greased 9 x 13″ baking pan.
Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes (or a little longer) or until top is starting to brown.  Store in fridge. Sprinkle a little powdered sugar on top before serving.

(I must credit FB with this recipe.)
