Had to use up some leftovers for dinner last night, had some Italian sausage and peppers left over from the weekend, plus a piece of chorizo, so I made two flatbreads using Cozmos pitas (my personal favourite, I buy them by the bag).

On the left is Chorizo, poblano peppers, onions, avocado and habanero/peach hot sauce.

On the right is the Italian Sausage/pepper mixture, onions, Boston lettuce parsley and basil.

Not terribly intricate but a good use of leftovers if I do say so myself.

MichaelGA: I logged in just to say that puttanesca lasagna, with pepperoni, sounds AMAZING. You say it jumped the shark, but did it work minus all the other stuff?? I might have to try this at some point.

It did work well, a spicy, salty, cheesy gut bomb. :P

Made a dry rub for these ribs last night:

Cajun Seasoning, Jalapeno Garlic Salt, Ghost pepper infused pink salt, and black pepper. Tossed them, roasted them on low for about three hours, served with (pre-made) fries, avocado, lime and hot sauce. Came out very salty but very tasty.

I know the shot glass is a tad pretentious, but I wanted to drizzle as I ate and it was the most appropriate sized container in my house.

Wanted to make burgers, but forgot to buy Hamburger Buns?

No problem, make one skillet sized burger and use pita's!

@EnglishFoodie: Nice idea! So you just put some oil in a non-stick and do it kind of like a tortilla?

@felinefan: My boyfriend is a fish biologist who works on the boats in the Bering Sea. When he's done his seasonal contract, he brings home a care package :)

@Sparrow Seed Lucky you! It's hard to find good fish in Ottawa.
