Saving Dinner

I know the other day I posted about the meal that really wasn't and how I used the meat in another dish. The other portion of the meal that was not eaten and used up was mashed potatoes and gravy. I was able to repurpose those items for a quick and easy dinner.

I made hamburger gravy. There are lots of recipes for hamburger gravy on the internet. I simply fried a pound of ground beef. Once all the meat was browned I poured in the gravy left from the last dinner and added a little bit of milk to the mixture to heat it all through.

I then reheated the mashed potatoes and poured the hamburger gravy over a serving of potatoes. I made a nice vegetable as a side dish and there was dinner.

Sometimes simple dinners are the best.
