    We tend to buy a pre cooked chicken reduced each week if we can. We use it for sandwiches, to top a pizza, use the breast for a roast dinner, boil the bones for chicken stock and make rice with that with chicken pieces and peas in or make a chicken soup, we make curry, wraps, chicken enchiladas (shred up the breast, mix in enchilada sauce etc.), chicken tacos....
    It's a really cheap source of meat and goes a long way. If we have too much, we freeze some for later.
