Rise and Shine is my way of sitting down and having a cup of coffee with you! We talk about the new deals of the day, highlights from yesterday, and anything else that might help us save time, money or energy. Published Monday through Friday – as I’m able.
Good morning! How’s your day going today? Is your week going well? I’m up to my eyeballs in garage sale stickers and cannot wait to be done with my garage sale this weekend! It always sounds like a good idea and then it gets a little overwhelming the day before. 🙂 Can anyone relate?
Do you have any fun plans this weekend? The weather here in the Pacific Northwest is supposed to be MAGNIFICENT! Please tell me if you plan to get outside and enjoy it! And if you live somewhere else in the country, I’d love to hear from you, too.
Last night for dinner we picked up a rotisserie chicken and had salads – fancy stuff. 🙂 So easy! If you’re going to buy a convenience food I think rotisserie chickens might rank as one of the best in terms of offering a solid protein that can be used in a variety of meals, plus you can make chicken broth with the carcass! I prefer Costco’s rotisserie chickens – but sometimes it’s just easier to get one from the neighborhood grocery store. What’s your favorite recipe with rotisserie chickens?

I had never purchased rotisserie chicken before last year. Alway roasted my own chickens. But I love Costco $4.99. Did you know that the Albertsons, Fred Meyer etc chickens are less than 2 pounds and like $6.99 for less than 2 pounds? A lady at Costco picked up several, put them back, and picked up another. I asked what she was doing. She said their chickens are guaranteed to be AT LEAST 3# and when you live them and compare, some of them are 4# for the same price. I put even the leg bones after dh eats the legs in the pot with the back and all the left overs and wings. I shred 1 breast in my kitchenaid and cube half of the second breast and get 3 meals out of it. With celery and onion and carcass and seasonings, I get enough meaty broth for soup and plain broth to freeze for chicken pot pie etc. I throw it all into my 8 qt electric pressure cooker, and voila, cheap soup and broth. I can’t believe how much they charge for qt chicken broth. My Goodwill buy of the week was a 5 1/2 qt bright cherry red Le Creuset stock pot for $7.50. It had a daerk black burned area, hot water and a box of baking soda soak for overnight and a day, and some Bar Keepers friend scrub and soak, it looks 85% better. Now just a spray of oven cleaner on warm pan in oven, or water with bleach and it should look just like brand new. No chips or anything. They were asking $14.99 and after showing them how black it was, they said how much are you willing to pay. I said half price. WOWzer
