Well, I will get 2 nights out of it, it appears!
I shred it up last night and got 3 pizza bagels out of it for me and the boys (I didn't overload the bagels, though, bc Conall is picky as all get out), and 2 chicken sandwiches for DH.
There appears to be enough to mix it into the cheesy broccoli pasta bake tonight.
And I have to add that it was a crappy chicken - I had asked DH to stop and pick one up before he got Gavin from school, but heaven forbid he should make more than one stop on the way home from work. *eye roll* The store had ONE chicken left when I went out at 5p and it was a bit crispy and not so meaty. Duh - everyone stops on their way home from work! Grrrr....
So, Caron, I applaud your husband for his anniversary dinner choice - I am highly impressed. You have a keeper!
My three sons!
I buy a Costco rotisserie chicken. They're huge, so I usually get two or three meals out if it as well.
This week I'm using one for chicken salad sandwiches for us, with fries, carrots and salad.
I also used it for indian butter chicken, and it made enough for two full meals for us,so three meals with one chicken.
This week I also did and egglplant/sausage pasta, and we're getting two nights of that as well.
Saturday - chili
Sunday - ranch chicken, mashed potatoes and roasted California blend veggies
Monday - chicken tenders Mac n cheese
Tuesday - taco pizza
Wednesday - turkey burgers, sweet potato fries
