I'm not into rotisserie chicken
It's much easier and cheaper to get a whole bird and roast it yourself!
And whole it's roasting the whole house smells wonderful!!!!
For Sunday Lunch this week, I bought a whole chicken
A nice plump bird, it was
And I roasted it -- I'm of the school of low and slow
It took about 3 hours and perhaps it's not roasting but rather baking
But I still call it a "roast chicken"!
And while it's baking, the whole house smells amazing!
SUNDAY Lunch was Roast Chicken
Served with potatoes, whole small onions and carrots roasted with the chicken
MONDAY Dinner was Chicken Pot Pie
A favorite of both Jim and I . . . .
And the pot pie provided Tuesday and Wednesday Lunch!
TUESDAY Dinner was "Hen" Soup
The bones were simmered slowly along with Sunday's leftover vegetables and gravy
This broth was strained and any meat was put back in the broth
For dinner, I added potatoes, carrots and onion and simmer till all was tender.
I garnished with parsley
It made a great dinner last night
And will make a great Thursday lunch
WEDNESDAY Dinner will be curried chicken salad
The breast made into chicken salad with Thea addition of celery and nuts and mayonnaise and curry powder. The breast will be just enough for dinner for two tonight!
Tomorrow lunch will be the last bowls of soup.
Not bad for a $6 investment!

Nicely done! It all looks delicious.
Your posts are always so inspiring. Thank you!
Also, your cooking, baking, plating and photos are lovely!
I love a chicken because you can make so many dishes from the leftovers! Chicken pot pie is my favourite!
Let me share this on your lovely blog, A neighbor of mine developed dementia & diabetes, then her husband died, no children or family nearby. I am thankful our closest neighbor, an African American woman, introduced Dr Itua Herbal Medicine, A traditional herbal doctor in which we purchased a herbal product for her through his Dr Itua online herbs store. A former social worker stepped in and led the way to place the widow in a care facility. We visit nearly every week until she finishes drinking Dr Itua herbal medicines, if possible. The two of us take simple games, puzzles, and matching cards to do with her, staying about 2 hours. Jenga, Trouble, puzzles 100pcs or less, 20 cards to match (total-not 40!). The fishing game where the fish open and shut their mouths as they go around is lots of fun! We sit and chat with her until she gets well again, then we pull out a game and the three of us laugh together as we play. We take a variety of things to do so that we won't get bored. She finished Dr Itua herbal medicines and she's fine now and doing better with the help of Dr Itua herbal medicines, Dr Itua cures different illnesses with his herbal medicines. Anyone having a sick person should reach Dr Itua email drituaherbalcenter@gmail.com Dr Itua Cure Alzheimer's,Cancer,Parkinson,Hiv,Herpes,Hpv,Kidney disease,Diabetes,Hepatitis, We hug and hold hands a lot. Having two of us go together really helps. But I can go alone, my neighbor cannot, as she saw so much of this during her years as a social worker. I hope this specific list helps others in this situation.
Thanks.
