After two days of having the Ethiopian food for dinner, we still have some left!! I found a way to not have it for another way OR throw it out!! I turned it into SOUP!! *grin*
I simply took the leftover lentils, vegetables (including fluid), and meat dish and put it all into a nice big soup pan. I then added two cans of tomato soup and one can of beef broth. I heated it up and voila - a wonderful beef and vegetable soup! And we all loved it!! Ethiopian Soup!! *smile*
As for the fall out from those Ethiopian dinners - my newly turned 3 year old son does not know whether to eat with his hands or his fork anymore! So most meals he looks at me as he stuffs his meatballs or chunks of chicken breast into his mouth! I think he feels he shouldn't be doing it, but HEY! Mum *insisted* I use my hands for those other two nights, so maybe I can get away with it now! *grin*

Hiya;
a tip!
Ethiopian food freezes very weel. The stews do anyway - injera, not so much. But you can serve the stews later with a slice of fresh bread or naan and it's super good reheated :-)
