Monday night chicken for all week soup

Chicken second courses

A few years ago when we were trying to do the single family income thing, I was researching ways to bring down our grocery costs. I found several tips, including 1.) Use the leftovers of a rotisserie chicken to make your own broth and 2.) Use a slow cooker to make your own rotisserie chicken. Putting these together has saved me tons of time, and a reasonable amount of money over the years. This recipe is just for the chicken and the broth, but my own ritual includes saving the a breast from the cooked chicken and using it with the newly made broth to make soup for the week, usually a Chicken Tortilla or Chicken Noodle.
