Shoutout to mastering the art of repurposing leftover roast chicken
I recently figured out how to stretch a single roast chicken into MULTIPLE meals, and it has SLASHED my weekly food costs. After we enjoy the initial dinner, I immediately pick the carcass clean and save every bit of meat. Those scraps get transformed into things like hearty chicken salad for lunches or a quick fried rice for another dinner. The real magic is simmering the bones with some onion and celery ends to make a rich, homemade broth. I use that broth as a base for a giant pot of soup, which easily provides two more meals. Learning this systematic approach has made me feel like a kitchen NINJA, and it eliminates so much waste. Honestly, investing that extra hour on a Sunday sets up my whole week for delicious and AFFORDABLE eating.
