What to do with small bits of leftover stuff .. well you make soup ! We had some grilled salmon left over so it was go time. Added some fresh sweet corn which gave it another little something special and raw shrimp and it was a winner. The grilled smokey flavor of the salmon was so special, but you could even do this with baked salmon ! Next time I am adding scallops and clams .. why not make this the full meal deal! Super simple, no waste and delicious to boot !
