Everything is pretty much an everyday standard. Perfect for leftovers as well.
Pasta Mushroom Stir-Fry
I’d be hard pressed to choose a favorite between a stir-fry and a pasta dish. This combines both!
The recipe calls for lentil pasta although you could easily use your favorite and it does need to be cooked before you begin.
This is all about mushrooms and the flavoring that go along with that. You end up with a dish that is the definition of hearty and satisfaction!

However, if you have any leftovers that need eating, substitute those and the essence of this dish remains the same. Enjoy!

Spicy Stir-Fried Szechuan Eggplant
If you’re new to eggplant, you may want to learn a little more about them. It’s certainly an interesting vegetable, some people love it and others not so sure. From my experience, if you have a really good eggplant recipe, that normally wins over most people.
I think for a Szechuan dish, eggplant is probably one of the best ingredients. Amber has done the perfect job in illustrating this with the recipe.
You need just 6 ingredients and a couple for garnish. It really is that simple and I guarantee you’ll never have take-out again after eating this.
Thai Basil Tempeh Stir-Fry
If you like Thai cooking, you’ll be right at home here.

The recipe is also versatile, so you can swap out green beans with any leftover vegetables you have. Fantastic for a multitude of reasons!
