This morning I dumped all of the leftover mashed potatoes and gravy in the crock pot. I added the leftover steamed broccoli, since I had it, some chopped ham, and enough beef broth (since the gravy was beef) to nearly fill up the crockpot. Then I set it on low for 8 hours. I stirred it a couple of times throughout the day and, just before serving, stirred in some sour cream. I served it with honey whole wheat rolls.
About 6 cups leftover mashed potatoes
1 cup leftover beef gravy
2 cups chopped ham
1 cup leftover steamed broccoli, chopped
About 6 cups beef broth or stock
1 cup sour cream
Salt and pepper to taste
Mix all ingredients except last 2 in crock pot. Cook for 8 hours on low, stirring once or twice. Just before serving stir in sour cream, season to taste with salt and pepper.

I love this idea! We had Mexican food last week and I took all the left overs and made like a taco soup. It was so yummy! First thing I though was YES! I learned this from Renee and she is Brilliant!!! It was basically seasoned chicken left over from homemade flauta plus beans, cheese, loads of salsa and the broth that the chicken had boiled in that had taco seasoning and stock cubes in it. I added extra stock cubes plus the other stuff and BAM!!
