Rotisserie Chicken Two Ways

One rotisserie chicken.

Two completely different meals.

I’m on it.

Last Friday afternoon I picked up a fresh rotisserie chicken, brought it home and immediately took it off the bone. Hint: it’s MUCH easier to get off the bone when it’s warm than when it’s cold.

I took half the chicken, chopped it up and added it to this crock pot lasagna recipe ~ lasagna with mushrooms, spinach and a bechamel sauce. I also chopped up one red pepper and added that in with the onion, mushroom and spinach mixture.

{Since Leah’s recipe didn’t include the chicken, I just went ahead and followed her directions and scattered the chopped chicken on top of each veggie layer}

Started the crock pot at 3:00pm and when we got home at 7:00pm from dance, dinner was ready!

Recipe numero dos….

I had the other half of the chicken ready for another meal and decided to make this curried chicken salad with almonds and raisins from Tyler Florence.

Two words ~ DEEEE-LISH!

I had all ingredients on-hand. LOVE when that happens.

I served it with some leftover quinoa.

Easy.

I don’t know about you, but Mr. Rotisserie and I are good friends. I can always count on him.

Please DO share some of your rotisserie chix secrets!

Happy Tuesday!

Mmmmmexican Lasagna!

If you’ve known me in the past 3 years, lived in my neighborhood and had a baby, then you’ve probably had this mexican lasagna.

It’s what I like to deliver to families with new babies or friends that just need a good home cooked meal at one time or another.

Another recipe from Rachael Ray which you can find here.

I hadn’t made it in awhile and was sort of craving it, so……guess what’s for dinner tonight!

I like to serve with a dollop of sour cream or a little guacamole.

Olé!

P.S. You could certainly add a small can of green chiles or chopped olives to the meat mixture, as well.
