Leftover chicken, some leftover carrot and broccoli, day old mash potato, cabbage, rice, sausages all mixed together into a stodgy lump with cheese on top

I'm not a fussy eater at all but the combination of the leftover foods is making me want to vomit it looks like dog food

That’s grim! Too many things. Ex MIL would have loved it!

Literally a dogs dinner, and I’m not fussy! Why on earth did he mix all that together?!

Sounds awful. Who even mixes potato with rice? Envy

The cheese on top makes it sound not so bad.... I would eat it.

🤔 does sound a bit odd. We had leftover cauliflower cheese, chopped roast potatoes, quorn roast mixed with some freshly made cauliflower cheese tonight. And a pack of tomato and cheese tortellini between 3.

It’s the rice that really making me Hmm

I’d go down the chippy personally. Or have a jacket spud & beans. Or toast Grin

Yeah, no. It’s the rice and sausages that make it too strange I think. Is that two days worth of leftovers then??

I like a bubble n squeak. I like to minimise waste.

But just how many meals have contributed to these leftovers?

It looks and tastes disgusting and I don't like cheese on top of things except for pizza or pasta anyway! But the cabbage is like a bloody month old Envy and the combination is too wrong in my mind to mix together to try and ignore it to try it more than a tiny bite

Isn't that effectively bubble and squeak? (Although I'd have chucked the rice if it were me).

I would require sauce though. Maybe a chicken gravy?

The chicken mash and a few vegetables are from the roast yesterday, the rice and sausages are fresh he threw them in, I'm a bit worried what else he put in there as I wasn't in the kitchen the whole time but yes the 'stew' technique used to effectively boil together old mash and rice with meat is literally horrendous in my opinion!!

I'd fry it up like bubble and squeak with a fried egg on top with ketchup.

Apparently this is a version of stew

I'm all for frying up yesterday's leftovers in a bit of butter in a frying pan. Topping off with grated cheese and grilling if appropriate.

But the foods in your OP sound like too many leftovers from too many dinners.

Chicken, mash and leftover veggies fine, I’d quite like that

I avoid reheated rice though, and that and the sausages don’t seem to belong anyway
