I ...I also have discovered the Sam's chickens. I pick one up on the days that I just do not feel like cooking anything at all. It's cheaper and tastier than giving in to that temptation to just go out.<br /><br />I also keep a "grid" of meals for the week, but don't assign them to a day, then I can just look at what is available and decide what to make. I try to put a combination of quick meals, favorites, and treats on there - then I buy just the ingredients for those recipes.Janethttp://godssmallestgraces.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2378566154264414320.post-91519028063733830622009-05-06T09:07:00.000-06:002009-05-06T09:07:00.000-06:00I am a thrifter as well and do many of the same th...I am a thrifter as well and do many of the same things you have listed - but I don't know if I'm brave enough to highlight my own hair yet.

I usually roast the chickens myself, but I'm going to have to compare prices with the rotiserie chickens next time I'm out.Buffiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07660856678001890152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2378566154264414320.post-26760230120497841522009-05-06T06:14:00.000-06:002009-05-06T06:14:00.000-06:00Sounds like you've got a pretty good system going!...Sounds like you've got a pretty good system going!<br />You may already do this, but once you've removed the meat from the rotisserie chicken, if you put the carcass in a pot and cover with water along with maybe a carrot and an onion, simmer for several hours, you have the best chicken stock! Great for sauces or soup or gravy! It freezes great too.John and Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04003995927332943576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2378566154264414320.post-82423002444017475262009-05-05T22:31:00.000-06:002009-05-05T22:31:00.000-06:00I buy the rotiseree chickens from Walmart and they...I buy the rotiseree chickens from Walmart and they are such a good deal!
