What are some things you had sitting around that you threw together in a pinch?!
I had some leftover spaghetti but ran out of spaghetti sauce!. So I threw some butter, parmesean and capers on the spaghetti, heat it up and it was really good!

Just the other night I was going to bake a cake from a Devil's Food cake mix with a can of pumpkin instead of the oil and eggs!. A friend had told me you could do this to make a low fat recipe!. Sort of like using applesauce instead of the oil!. So I opened the can of pumpkin, but it was really old and had gone off!. So I had to toss it!. I looked for some applesauce to use instead but didn't have any!. I didn't want to go to the store, so was wracking my brain for what to use!. I found a can of apple pie filling and a can of pear halves!. I opened the can of apple pie filling to use, but then I thought that it was probably too sweet, so I only put in half of it!. Then I thought, "eh, pears are kind of like apples and canned ones are mushy, so I can squish them up like applesauce!." So I smushed up the pears and put them into the cake mix along with the pear juice!. Then I chickened out and figured maybe I'd better add the eggs anyways!. So I put in the eggs, but no water and no oil!. I mixed it all up and baked it and it was the BEST cake ever! I am definitely going to do that again!!Www@FoodAQ@Com
LOL this is a funny question!.
Once a friend of mine invited someone over to my place and I had no fresh food!. I did have left overs!. I had some red beans, some pepper steak and some rice!. The person they invited didn't eat onions at all!.
I just picked the steak out of the pepper steak!. Put that into the beans, added a harbanero pepper and put that over the rice!. It was like a new meal out of leftovers, so now I do this often!. Take leftovers and make a new dish instead of just reheating the leftovers!. No one really likes leftovers because you already ate it and had your fill!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

My favorite "we have no food" recipe is -
several frozen chicken breasts
a can of pasta sauce
rice
Place the chicken breasts in a glass pan, use 3/4 of the can of sauce poured over the chicken!.
Bake in a 425 degree oven!.
Cook rice!.
Slice chicken breasts, place on top of rice, and pour remaining sauce over top!.
