Good use for those "blase' " chicken breasts that you don't care for @Baymule . I might have to try it with the ones I have.
Try it out, it really makes store bought chicken more edible...least the stuff i have been seeing up here for 2 yrs now. Intermuscular fat on chicken breasts is so wrong and gross. If i get the really little pre-frozen ones they dont have it..yet.

We are hoping to raise meat birds this coming year.

Yep. DW isn't all that fond of roast chicken (DD2 "allows" one meal with chicken per month) but she's OK with it in salads, stir fries, etc. She really liked the chicken and apple salad. I could add some onion, have plenty of that. No grapes or celery (I don't think) and I'm not putting nuts in it, not a big fan of that much "crunch" in my salad.

I'm glad you found something your wife liked!

That's how I make my chicken salad too, only I never put apples in it..... sounds good! Got to have pecans in it!

I knew you were my kind of women Bay!!:lol:

Correct. We got a fresh chicken at the Farmer's Market last Saturday. Roasted it Sunday (Saturday is burger (from the market of course) night ;) DD2 will eat only the legs, DW only the breast. So I eat the thighs, dark is my favorite part anyway. The leftover breast will be put in the chicken salad tonight, I ate the wings and some of the first breast Tuesday when they had sushi (which I don't eat, no raw fish for me thanks) from the health food store. I go on Tuesdays because there is a discount on bulk foods and DW likes that stuff, especially the ridiculously expensive dried Mango. It is 25 miles one way to that store.

I might add that DD is spending the afternoon down in Burlington with a high school friend. She will be sure to get something for dinner so she can easily avoid the chicken tonight. Of COURSE she wouldn't even try it just in case it might be good, that is not her way.

Too bad that we aren't next door neighbors!

I know right

I would just like to say.....You must love your family very very much to put up with all the "rules". I don't think I would be able to handle it personally but I am cheap and was raised around ag my whole life and I know not everyone was that fortunate.
