I keep my cabinets stocked with basics like canned tomatoes, soups, vegetables and any left over any thing can be made into a meal the next day or used as some sort of side dish. LOL, around here we call them one of a kind meals, because there isn’t any recipe, and can never be duplicated again. Just about any thing can be stir fried by using a small piece of meat and a few vegetables.
Left over cornbread is cut into squares, then cut in half, spread a little butter on and toasted in a fry pan or oven. Left over vegetables taste great stir fried with some onions, and pasta mixed in.
