A great recipe for leftover pork chops, roasts, and more. A few bits from the fridge turn into a tasty dinner in less than 45 minutes. If I have a leftover grilled pork or the tail of a roast, I'll freeze it until I have enough for this dish. You can also use chicken or substitute some of the veggies for what you have on hand when cleaning out the fridge. Serve with sweet Thai chili sauce on the side.

Best Beef Dip Ever
This beef dip recipe is a favorite with all my family and friends. I refuse to give them the recipe because it is so easy. I love it when they keep asking for it! I often throw all the ingredients into a slow cooker and head to work. We all eat it when we get in the door. The au jus is great. Add beef to lightly toasted buns, then dip away in the au jus.
