TIP OF THE DAY: Leftover Cheese Bits & Scraps
A salad pleading for those leftover cheese |
What to do with those bits of cheese left over from the party cheese board?
Don’t toss the tiny pieces or wrap up the bigger ones and stash them away. Instead, plan some recipes to use them up ASAP. Our favorites uses: • Cheese omelets and “mixed grill” grilled cheese sandwiches • Slice and add to a pizza, burger, sandwich or salad • Dice into a garnish for other foods, from soup to rice, potatoes and vegetables If there’s enough cheese, make: • Quesao asado (baked cheese, but you can microwave it), and eat it with tortilla chips • Fondue or macaroni & cheese |

Don’t hesitate to mix up the cheese flavors—some of the tastiest fondues are made from blends of four or five different cheeses.
