Clean out the fridge concoctions

What's the most surprisingly yummy dish you've cooked up in an effort to clean out your fridge or pantry?

I hate to waste anything, so when I have several random items in the refrigerator that are precariously close to their expiration dates, I throw them all in a skillet and hope for the best! Do you do the same? If so, what crazy-sounding combinations have you discovered that are actually quite yummy? Have any "clean out the fridge" meals made their way into your regular repertoire? Any tips for using up disparate ingredients?

I recently threw together leftover white rice, hot-and-sour soup, kale salad (basically chopped kale dressed w/ lime juice, lemon and honey), parsley, cilantro, and a couple of eggs. After a few minutes in the frying pan, it was actually quite good!
