I usually do my cooking for the week on Sunday. Because I was in Phoenix last weekend for the Paratriathlon National Championships, I did not do my usual weekend cooking.
I got home late Tuesday, So later in the week, I found myself grocery shopping after working out.
I picked up a rotisserie chicken from the deli. I had thought about getting Chinese take out. It's tough to find time to cook during the week. Because by the time I work out and check e-mail my evening i pretty much done. The chicken from the deli was a great solution. A bit healthier than take out and cheaper considering how many meals it makes for m.
Paired with vegetables and some mashed potatoes it is an easy meal. I used part of that chicken for this recipe. Hope you like it.
