Whenever I see a great deal on those gigantic Perdue roasters, I make sure to grab one (or maybe more) for the freezer.  Yesterday we had the traditional roast chicken, so I knew there’d be lots left over and planned accordingly.

I pulled the meat from the bones and mixed it in a large pot with a bag of baby carrots, peas, two slivered onions, two containers of the flavored cooking cheese and broccoli. Since only the carrots needed loger cooking time, I nuked them for two minutes before added to the mixture in the pot. Cooked with a low flame for about ten minutes, just to meld all the flavors, then turned it into a baking dish and topped with a pack of the Fresh Take mozzarella/bread crumbs variety. Bake in a fast oven (I used 450°) for about 10-15 minutes, just to toast the crumbs and make it look purdy…

Guess it passed the taste test!

You can search older posts to find the actual OOP on the ingredients, but I believe the peas were free, the Kraft cheese was 23¢, carrots were free after store cat, cooking creams were also cheap – probably the broccoli was the most expensive part!
