Whole Fryer Chickens On Sale!

Harris Teeter had whole fryer chickens on sale this week for $.77 per pound.  So, I thought, why not...


I bought two and roasted them Saturday morning.  I pulled the chicken and shredded it.
So for $8.53 total I was able to prepare.....

2 batches of Tostadas or Tacos (two cups each of shredded chicken)
3 pints of chicken salad (I put 2 cups in the food processor with celery and onion.  I'll add the Mayo once I'm ready to serve)
1.5 cups for a Hamburger Helper meal this week

Then I boiled the bones to make broth.  I was able to freeze 15 cups of chicken broth.  I froze it in 2 cup batches ready for soups.  I made my money back in the broth alone...not to mention the 6 other meals I have prepped and ready to go.
