It seems like every time I make baked chicken the leftovers don't get eaten. You see, I'm not a huge fan of reheated chicken. I don't know what it is about the flavor of it, but no matter how it is prepared or spices used - it ALWAYS tastes the same and unfortunately it's a taste I don't like. So, this leaves David to eat the leftover chicken. For some reason, when I make baked chicken he never seems to pull it out of the fridge and eat it. Last night while I was making room in the fridge for a bowl of cantaloupe I had just cut up I found the container with a baked chicken breast from a few days ago in it. Well, I don't know why the idea occurred to me for the first time last night but it's OK. I'm glad it did.I pulled the chicken out of the container, took all of the meat off the bone and threw it in a baggie. I plan on using the chicken for the kids for lunch today. David even mentioned the fact that I could probably stick it on a sandwich as well. Sure could! So, in the future, I think I'll be sure to de-bone before I even put it in the fridge. Maybe it'll get eaten that way.

As a child, whenever my mom made baked chicken she made two and then de-boned all the leftovers and froze them. Then she would use the chicken for casseroles or various other meals (fajitas, stir-fries, etc). It worked well for her too! :)
