Good everyday cooking is usually less about finding the “perfect” recipe and more about making a useful decision with the food, time and energy you actually have.
Start with what is already useful
Start by separating the leftover into its role: cooked protein, cooked carbohydrate, vegetables or sauce. It is easier to create a new meal when you think of yesterday's dinner as prepared ingredients.
Make the ingredients work harder
Change the format. Roast chicken can become wraps, curry or pasta. Cooked potatoes can become a hash. Roasted vegetables can become soup, pasta sauce or a grain bowl.
Turn the idea into a repeatable habit
Add one strong flavour direction rather than lots of random ingredients. Soy, sesame and chilli can push rice towards fried rice; tomato, garlic and herbs can turn cooked vegetables into pasta.
