I'm a mom of 4 who loves shopping at Costco. Here are my favorite ways to use the $5 rotisserie chicken.
As a mom of 4 who's been shopping at Costco for 10 years, the $5 rotisserie chicken is my go-to.
I shred it as a base for yummy salads, use it to make crispy tostadas, and turn it into chili.
I use the remaining parts of the chicken to make a tasty broth in bulk.
I've been a Costco executive member for 10 years, and as a mom of four, the store's rotisserie chicken is my secret weapon.
From delicious salads to savory soups, here are my five favorite ways to feed my family using the $5 rotisserie chicken.
I shred the chicken and add it to a delicious quinoa and sweet potato salad.
I love adding rotisserie chicken to a quinoa and sweet potato salad recipe I found on Sprouted Kitchen.
The salad includes lots of nutritious ingredients like sweet potatoes, kale, quinoa, lentils, and vegetables. The rotisserie chicken also boosts the protein content, making this salad a well-rounded meal.
The chicken tastes great as part of a tasty tostada recipe.
Mixing the leftover chicken with canned green chiles, tomato paste, spices, and chicken broth gives it new life.
I like to pile that mixture on a crispy tortilla topped with pickled onions, avocado, and romaine lettuce. In less than 30 minutes, I have a dinner that makes my entire family happy.
A creamy chicken chili makes the perfect dinner on cold nights.
Cool fall nights call for chili, but when I don't have time for my pot to sit on the stove all day, I make a quick, white-chicken version instead.
I like to use a recipe from The New York Times, which calls for an onion, a jalapeño pepper, garlic, cannellini beans, diced green chiles, chicken broth, corn kernels, and spices.
Costco's chicken is the perfect addition to a classic Waldorf salad.
I like to use shredded chicken as the base for a Waldorf salad, which also includes lettuce, grapes, walnuts, apples, celery, and mayonnaise.
It tastes great on its own or piled onto crackers or bread.
I use the leftover chicken to make a broth.
