Notes

This recipe is very easy, practical, and great for eating something different and full of flavor.
You can easily adapt it to the ingredients you have at home. For example, use leftover chicken steaks, tuna, smoked salmon, you name it... just open the fridge.
The sauce I used for the toast spread, you can perfectly replace with what you have at home: mayonnaise, mustard, or simply some butter.
The most important thing is that you use your creativity and take advantage of the leftovers that are in the fridge. Do we accept the zero waste challenge?
