Last week something very strange and odd happened. We ran out of frozen chicken broth.\u00a0 I actually used some turkey broth in the chicken and dumplings I was making. The easiest solution would have been to just add chicken broth to the grocery list. Instead I added a rotisserie chicken to the Costco list.\u00a0 The total cost of the chicken was $4.99.\u00a0 We ate it for dinner on Saturday night, I had left-overs on Sunday and I think at least one other person did as well.\u00a0 Today (Wednesday) I pulled the rest of the meat off the bone\u00a0 which was almost exactly a pound and used in our new recipe, Chicken Tetrazzini. The bones and skins went into the crockpot with 24 cups of water to make broth out of.\u00a0 So instead of spending $5.00 on chicken broth, I spent $5.00 on three meals and made the chicken broth for free!<\/p>\n
