Cooking is an integral part of RV traveling whether it’s on
the grill, on the stove, or over a campfire. One of the results of cooking is
having leftovers. This is good for the next day, but what happens if you have
something that produces leftovers for a couple of days? The answer to that is
finding innovative recipes to spice it up so it’s an exciting new meal.
