Alright. I am no self-proclaimed cook. At all. But here is what I do with it.
Evening #1. Pull off legs and wings. Eat.
I then take off the skin as I'm not a big seasoning/salty fan.
I cut all the chicken off the body and save in a Gladware container.
I then take the body and boil it (then simmer) in a pot with salt for broth. I don't add onion or carrots (well, because I don't like carrots) or pepper. I'm going to add noodles later on, and some spices if I need to. Basic Chicken noodle soup. Oh, and add some of the chicken cubed up.
Day #2. Breakfast. Eat soup.
Lunch. I heat up a pita. I spread on hummus or tzaziki (can also buy at Costco), put in some chicken pieces and lettuce and eat. You can also add tabouli (also at Costco, do you see a theme here?), cut up tomato, feta and roasted garlic pieces.
Evening #2. Make spaghetti. For sauce use any kind but add a cut up pepper (like orange, sweet) and chicken to sauce.
Snack #2. Cheese and cut up chicken in a tortilla. Make quesadilla or just roll it up, add salsa.
Day #3. More soup.
Lunch - put chicken in tortilla/wrap with feta, romaine, tabouli, any other ingredients you have laying around. I actually dip in habanero salsa, but that's just my deal. You can make either mexican with cheddar/jack and salsa, or mediterranean like yesterday, or whatever.
Dinner/snack. Shred the rest and make chicken nachos! All done!
I am just simple about this, as there are tons of recipes on the internet, but as I'm not a cook, it has to be fast and simple, or I'm not doing it. Just wanted to share what I'm up to when not crafting/gaming/working.
Of course, this is to save money to buy more shoes and crafts.
ReplyDeleteomg. The soup is awesome. Actual chicken chunks, and as a "splurge", I picked up some alphabet pasta @ DeLeon's for $.50. It's awesome. Bite me, Campbell's.
