It happens to all of us, whether we finish or start the week with leftovers, we often end up with different parts of meals that can't possibly form another meal together. With a little imagination these leftovers can serve as a foundation for delicious noodles, a complete and comforting meal. You can also serve it with rice, cooked green vegetables, quinoa or couscous.
