Featured Recipe: A Big Batch of Poached Chicken
Here are some wonderful ways we like to use poached chicken:
- As a topper for chef salads and Cobb Salads. We especially like it in Bowtie Pasta Salad with Chicken, Grapes and Peas.
- Added to casseroles.
- As a base for chicken chili.
- As a base for chicken-vegetable soup.
- Mixed with a little mayonnaise, celery and sweet pickles for quick chicken salad.
- As a topper for Mexican snacks such as quesadillas and nachos.
- Sliced for sandwiches.

What you're saying..
I purchased your Cheap, Fast, Good! cookbook about 6 months ago and I use it weekly. I enjoy cooking and have used many cookbooks, cooking magazines and Internet cooking sites to glean inspiration for feeding my family well. Your cookbook has beaten them all hands down. I have particularly enjoyed the chapter on big batch cooking. It gives me so many options and everything is so quick!
Thank you,
