Dirty South Pasta Salad (from The North)


Tonight we had leftovers to use up in the refrigerator. Some chicken and andouille sausage left from the Jambalaya this weekend, remoulade sauce and some cooked shrimp coupled with tomatoes, yellow squash and zucchini from our garden.

What to do?

Well, Brownie found pasta in the pantry! So began his creation...

Dirty South Pasta Salad (from The North) - Brownie grilled the sausage and chicken and let them cool and chill, then tossed them with the chopped yellow squash and zucchini from our garden, cooked and chilled some pasta he found in the pantry and clipped some chives from the herb garden. Stirred together with the remoulade sauce... another delectable meal under his hat! That tomato out of the garden was the most flavorful garnish I could have imagined! Our tomatoes have so much character!

I dare say, this concoction will be our new go-to for bringing to potlucks and picnics! Creating food can't always be about expensive and hand-picked ingredients - sometimes all you have is what is left over. That's how amazing things are born in this house. I love us for this very reason.
