Pot Roast Leftovers

Updated: Jan 17


After a delightful Christmas dinner featuring my homemade pot roast, I found myself with leftovers – a perfect opportunity to get creative in the kitchen. Transforming leftovers into something new and exciting is one of my favorite culinary challenges. It's a chance to bring out the flavors in a new light and enjoy the fruits of your labor in a whole different way.



For a hearty, comforting lunch, I turned some of the pot roast into scrumptious sandwiches. A little butter spread on a slice of baguette, ciabatta, or your bread of choice, toasted to crispy brown, and then loaded with the warm, flavorful pot roast – it’s simple yet so satisfying. The rich flavors of the roast paired with the crisp, buttery bread create a delightful contrast in textures.



And for a fun twist, I also whipped up some quesadillas using the leftover pot roast. Just imagine – tender pot roast and melted cheddar and red cheddar, all encased in a crispy, golden tortilla, finished with a sprinkle of parmigiano reggiano. It’s a fusion of flavors that brings a whole new dimension to the leftover game.


These easy, delicious dishes are not just about using up leftovers; they’re about celebrating them, turning something familiar into a brand new experience.
