Let's talk about one of the most underrated time-savers in your grocery cart:
The rotisserie chicken. 🐔
Whether you're brand new to meal prepping or just want something quick and realistic for the week ahead, this is one of my absolute favorite hacks.
Here's why I love it: ✔️ It's already cooked—zero prep needed ✔️ It's affordable (usually under $8!) ✔️ It's incredibly versatile—use it for lunch, dinner, or even snacks ✔️ It helps you avoid takeout when you're too tired to cook
Here are a few of my go-to ways to use one rotisserie chicken:
🥗 Layer it into mason jar salads for quick grab-and-go lunches. I love this using it in this Greek Mason Jar Salad. 🍚 Toss it into rice or grain bowls with veggies and a drizzle of dressing 🌮 Stuff it into wraps or tacos for easy dinners the whole family loves 🍲 Add it to soups, casseroles, or pasta to stretch it into multiple meals. This Chicken, Broccoli, and Rice One Pot Meal is PERFECT for rotisserie chicken. 🍗 Use the leftover bones to make homemade chicken stock (bonus win!)
With just one chicken, you can easily prep 3–5 meals for the week. It's the ultimate low-effort, high-reward ingredient.

📌 I put together a full post showing exactly how I break down, store, and use rotisserie chicken for meal prep.
Plus, I included my favorite recipes and combos so you can skip the guesswork.
If your week is busy (and let's be real, when isn't it?), this simple strategy can help you eat better, save time, and avoid drive-thru dinners. 🙌
