The Cheaper Chicken....

Does anyone remember that scene from Father of the Bride?  Anyway...I wanted to share with you a way to buy chicken cheaply.

Last night I had to run into Kroger late.  Ok, I didn't have to run, I wanted to go to the store at 8pm to buy some milk and other things that I couldn't live without.  I also wanted  needed a few minutes to myself.  I love Krogering for that reason.

I was getting ready to leave when I went past the rotisserie chicken stand.  The packages were marked down to $2.99 from $5.99.  These chickens come in handy for so many recipes!  They can be pulled apart and frozen for future recipes and the best thing is that the meat is already seasoned!  I was able to get about 3 cups of meat from one chicken.

I made my hubby chicken salad for lunch and will be able to make two chicken potpies (using chicken from another rotisserie chicken also) and freeze them for a later date.  The meat could also be used to make BBQ chicken sandwiches, enchiladas, tacos, and/or soups.

The cheaper the chicken, the better!
