Leftovers be gone. Baked Tomato Chicken and Baked Shells and Cheese.

There are days when I forget to defrost something from the freezer for dinner and we must scramble for dinner that night. A piece of grilled chicken was left over from a previous glazed chicken post. Refrigerated grilled chicken quite honestly does not look appetizing. Instead of throwing the chicken in the microwave simply for substance for our stomachs, I livened it up a bit with some canned tomatoes and spices (mainly garlic, salt, pepper, and a bit of chilies). I pre-sliced the chicken for easy serving. It turned out looking and most importantly tasting better than microwaved chicken.

Additionally, a side dish was needed. I found some shells and cheese in the cabinet, and cooked them as the label instructed, then I mixed in some extra Parmesan cheese and topped it off with Parmesan and bread crumb crust. Voila!
