Take-out Tuesday, BBQ Sundae, with Sunday Potatoes
Celebrate March 1 with a Sundae! 🍨 A BBQ Sundae that is!
There are many legends about the origin of the ice cream sundae, one being that it was created by the popular fountain treat, the ice cream soda, which is made with soda topped with ice cream
In one establishment it was a treat served only on Sundays. The spelling of Sunday was changed so as not to offend the religious meaning of Sunday, and because it was so popular it was eventually served everyday.
This is a sundae not made with ice cream and chocolate sauce, but with leftovers and Sunday Potatoes {recipe below}
BBQ pork, sauce, macaroni, pickles, grated cheese, potatoes and a tomato topper
You can set out different foods to make a “Sundae Bar” and let diners make their own creations 🎨
It’s a fun presentation
And a great way to jazz up your leftovers
You can provide a plate for easier eating 🍴
I didn’t have any cooked veggies on hand, but sauteed spinach or kale, broccoli or green beans would be a great addition to this sundae…
Endless possibilities here, and a fun party/buffet idea-

Jenna, now this is a fun idea! I love using leftovers and serving them in a different way and you did it so creatively! Happy Tuesday!
Jenna, We’ve picnicked with a BBQ sundae in a jar for easy toting! I’ve only used cole slaw layered with BBQ and a pickle on top, but I love your addition of the mac ‘n cheese and/or your Sunday potatoes 🙂
What a fun idea, especially on a picnic. Love all the recipes, it’s early AM and you have me wanting BBQ for breakfast! Who doesn’t love a Sundae………
Ha! I hope you stay safe in the storms later today, we are luckily on the coast with spring like weather… >
Jenna, I could eat this right now, and it’s just breakfast time!! Yum! What a great idea for making leftovers seem special. Linda
Looks so yummy! My husband and daughter can’t have any of their food touching on their plates… this would send them into DT’s! lol! But not me, I would love it!!! Thanks for providing the recipes! ~Rhonda
