AIBU to start to believe in the magical Mumsnet chicken?

[HootOwl]

Maybe it is actually real?! 🐔😆

I roasted an (admittedly huge) chicken and also this was all only to feed me and two small children so not huge portions but from one chicken we had:

Roast dinner
Chicken fricassee
Chicken risotto
Chicken pasta bake
Paprika chicken
Chicken soup
Crispy chicken skin (snack)

Will make the effort to roast a whole one more often! I swear it only had two breasts, two legs and two wings...

Same thing. And no, I cant eat those either, dont eat cold chicken cuts at all.

I love cold roast chicken, especially in summer with a salad and some colesalw, or cold roast potatoes. Such a shame you can't enjoy that. 😕

Ah dont worry, my dh and sons don't share my dislike so any cold cuts that come our way get eaten. No chicken ever wasted round here.

So wait.

On MN it’s “minging” and “grim” if a young child wears the same pjs for two days in a row, but it’s ok to feed that child meat cooked 5 days ago?!

'You've just demonstrated why buying a small chicken is a false economy. When I had me DH and 2 teenagers to feed I'd roast a large one and get a roast dinner on Sunday, risotto or curry on Monday, chicken noodle salad or wraps for Tuesday lunch boxes and a chicken and veg soup for Wednesday lunch.'

Whoah, how big is the chicken? An extra large Costco one lasts us 2 days and we re only household of 2 adults and 2 young dc.

Because you have larger portions of meat than her family does.

Simple.
