You can use any combination of vegies, if they are already cooked just add them with the fruit at the end.

This recipe is from a Canadian book Recipes for Leftovers by Jean Pare - a wonderful book with recipes for any leftovers.  I often cook up meat so that I will  have leftovers and that I can do some of her recipes. It is a very inexpensive book so well worth buying one if you can find it anywhere.

KerrynN - This was delicious. We had this with leftover roast pork from the weekend. I was a bit dubious about adding the peaches and I used different vegies but DH and I were very pleasantly surprised. We would definitely have this again. Thanks.

Mmm, nice one Judy. I love to make use of left overs. Now that there's only DH to make lunch for, I usually have a lot of left over roast meat.
