We love Mother Nature and all of her bounty so you better believe we hate to see good plants go to waste! That’s why we love dishes that incorporate leftovers.Use up your leftovers to make this delicious and protein packed spinach salad. You can even switch up your veggies for any other roasted veggies based on what you have in your fridge. It’s that easy! Use cooked lentils to save time and easily crisp them up in just 10 minutes! This makes a great side salad, or hearty snack.
