  • @Skeezon, I cook a lot of chicken in the Crock Pot, shred or dice and freeze it.  Then it's easy to thaw and have over different salads, use in tacos or quesadillas, etc.  DH also grills a lot, which means I don't have to heat the kitchen up.

    These are a couple of good "salad" recipes that are pretty filling - a decent sized portion of these could definitely be a meal
