This is how Dorinda Medley does it at Blue Stone Manor.

In a lunchtime rut? Take this tip from Dorinda Medley: Think last night's dinner, but with a twist. And to help you with some menu inspiration, here's an anecdote straight from the kitchen of Blue Stone Manor

How to Watch

On September 3, Dorinda's Instagram Story showed her getting ready for lunch. (We know, because the short video was illustrated with a bright orange caption that read, well, "Lunch!") As Dorinda stirred something up in a white bowl, the Story's narrator — whom we assume was her beau John Mahdessian — asked her what she was up to. 

"I'm making shrimp salad from yesterday," she said. "Remember? Now I'm going to put it on those nice hot dog rolls. We waste nothing in this house. It just keeps getting transformed into something else." Not bad for a summery snack!

This just goes to show: It's amazing what you can do with a hot dog bun and a little elbow grease.
