Pantry Slideshow 1 

When you look into your fridge, and lament that it is empty, with no chance of filling it again soon–clean your fridge! Its empty shelves will sparkle at you and amazingly make you feel better.

Then look to your pantry for ideas, and pretty soon, there will be something in your refrigerator: leftovers!
The meals on this menu are made strictly from shelf-friendly items found in my pantry.
