Leftover ideas

Besides being tasty, this soup is also low in calories and fat, inexpensive, and very quick to make. The ingredients are ones that I usually stock in my kitchen, but aren't expensive to buy if you don't. They can be used in many other ways, too, so you won't be wasting anything. This soup reheats and freezes well.

Louise Martin of Denver, Pennsylvania writes, 'This simple but tasty blend will surprise you. It uses leftover chicken and frozen green beans, so it's fast to fix for a brunch or light lunch.' Our test kitchen figured this reasonably priced main dish costs just 81¢ a serving.
