Weeknight Cooking: Just Add Chicken

Guys, let me introduce you to my new best friend. 
This chicken is the best thing we could have ever discovered! About a month ago it was on sale at Sam's Club so we thought we'd give it a try. 

I was a little skeptical because in the past, chicken like this has not reheated well, and gotten pretty gross. But this stuff is amazing! What we love about it is that its not just for fajitas, and you can throw it into so many different recipes for a quick weeknight dinner.

So far these are the things we've been able to make:

-BBQ chicken pizza
-Chicken alfredo pasta
-Chicken chow mein
-Two Timin' Pasta Bake (Not as quick, but provides lots of yummy leftovers for later!)
-Chicken Caesar salad
-Chicken quesadillas
-Chicken wrap
-Fajitas
-Teriyaki chicken bowls
-Chicken tacos
Those are just a few, the possibilities are endless. Our little one also loves this chicken by itself. We just zap it in the microwave for 10 seconds, and then her dinner is ready! 

I've done a post in the past about Easy Chicken Dinners using canned chicken as well, which is great too! But sometimes you just don't want to fuss with a can opener and those recipes actually take a little more time. 

I've seen this brand of chicken also at Wal-Mart, but in a smaller bag. I'm going to stick with this kind now that I know it reheats well and gives us so many options 
for busy weeknight dinners. 

Give it a try!
