Get Creative with Expiring Items
I made a tuna fish casserole the other night with tuna fish that was expiring next week! I wouldn't have thought to make my casserole but I received a text this morning that let me know that I had several packets of tuna fish expiring next week. To my delight I had all of the ingredients on hand. I normally add peas but this time I happened to have a bag of peas and carrots that had been in the freezer for a while so I used that. I also added artichoke hearts. Artichoke hearts are a fun way to add another layer of vegetable and it gives it a tang! I used low fat shredded cheddar cheese too. On top of it all I made croutons with old hot dog buns I found in the basement freezer!
