(Lemon Tilapia and Fresh Pasta)
For those of you are new to my blog I write these weekly plans to help me spend less (I kinda of love grocery shopping, yea I know I’m weird), to save time and to try and help us eat in more often. Also I love knowing what other people eat so I thought it would be fun to share. For a while I’ll be adding my plans for what greens. I’ll be eating since one of my resolutions is to build a habit of introducing more green veggies into our diet. Maybe some day it’ll be so normal for us that I won’t have to mention them any more.
It’s been a long week and there aren’t signs of slowing so I’m grabbing myself a rotisserie chicken from Costco on the way home from church and I’ll make it last. I’ll put what piece of the chicken I’ll use for the meal just for fun.
What ways to you use rotisserie chickens? I’m looking for more ideas since it’s such a great cheat but I tend to fall back on the same old ones.

some of my go to recipes are:
chicken salads
– basic one with grapes, chicken, some dried minced onions and seasoning
-curry-fruity chicken salad with glazed pecans
-terriyaki chicken salad with pineapple
chicken pot pie with biscuits or puff pastry
creamy chicken noodle soup
creamy chicken chili
cheesy chicken and broccoli casserole
chicken pizzas
-pesto, sun dried tomatoes and chicken
-bbq sauce, red onion and chicken pizza (also can up zucchini on it)
