[QUOTE="donna723, post: 529517, member: 1883"] I'm very big on buying whole chickens and getting several meals out of them. I just put it in the oven and roast it for the first meal, and usually have sandwiches the next day. Then with what's left I make old fashioned chicken and dumplings - very filling and very economical. If you have the time, you can make your own chicken broth by covering what's left of the chicken with water, throw in some onions, maybe a carrot, and simmering for a while. Then pick the meat off the bones. Or you can use canned chicken broth. I put one can of chicken broth and one can of cream of chicken soup in a big pot and heat it up, add the chicken meat and a can of mixed vegetables. Then for the dumplings, I use one of those little envelopes of biscuit mix (around $1) or Bisquick, mix it with enough water or milk to make a soft dough, and drop it by spoonfuls into the simmering liquid. Cover the pot and let it simmer until the dumplings are big and fluffy and their surface looks dry. That's it. You can jazz it up but that the basics. And you can make it pretty much from leftovers!
