After the Game Party

Some of the people we know think that an industrial size quantity of perishable food is a nice, thoughtful gift for a party host. Y'know what?  IT'S NOT. 

What the f*ck are we going to do with SIX POUNDS of cheap salsa???

We had this problem earlier this summer and we used it to poach eggs for breakfast a couple times and that was really tasty. Basically you heat up the salsa to a simmer with some added broth/tomato sauce/water to thin it out a little. Then add the eggs to the pan and poach.

I suppose you could also use it to marinate some meat for roasting or grilling.

Compost. Or if you don't have a compost heap, just dig a hole and bury.

What? You'll be feeding the worms and microbes, right? It's a good cause.

I was going to suggest freezing too, but in smaller size containers than 3 cups.

My big gripe about party food is the people who bring those stupid 2-liter bottles, usually of some cheap store brand that no one wants to drink, and usually not chilled, thus reducing the likelihood of anyone even considering opening it. Least of all, of course, themselves.

Give it to a food pantry or similar operation.
