Leftovers Recycled

Writing a book like When Rivers Burned: The Earth Day Story has made me hyper-sensitive to environmental issues. Americans throw so much food away. Wouldn't it be valuable to come up with new ways to recycle leftovers?
So here's my contribution:
Take leftover rice. Add brown sugar, raisins, milk, and a touch of cinnamon. Heat it in the microwave for 45 seconds.
Presto, delicious breakfast!

This sounds good! I have to try it. My kids always sigh when they ask me what's for dinner and my response is, "I'm doing an experiment!"

Worse is when my family loves my experiment and I can't remember what I put in it.
