Ever wander what to do with leftover dinner ingredients? Look no further. This Instant Pot Thai Chicken Flat Bread is the perfect end of the week dinner to clean out your fridge.
In honor of Earth day, this month’s recipe redux challenge is to show how we reduce food waste. I LOVE this topic because many of my recipes come from using left over food. I hate throwing away scraps of food and leftover meals. It’s like throwing money down the drain- no one wants to do that!
Typically, I toss all of my leftover scraps in a wok and make an end of the week stir fry. As delicious as my random concoctions are, I thought I’d change it up a bit.
My most popular recipe is my Instant Pot Chicken Teriyaki. It’s quick, healthy, and most importantly tasty! It has become a staple for me and my roomie. I’ve gotta say, this flat bread take it to a whole new level. This insanely delicious recipe was made from the week’s leftovers. Don’t believe me? I’ll break down my menu. I put the ingredients used in the flat bread in parenthesis.
Monday- Kale Taco Salad (kale)
Tuesday- My Instant Pot Teriyaki Chicken +Quinoa + green beans (chicken)
Wednesday- One Pan Chicken and Roasted Veggies ( carrots and onions)
Thursday- Chicken from my one pan chicken topped with sun-dried tomatoes and mozzarella cheese + massaged kale salad (mozzarella cheese and kale)
