Mega Cooking!
Pecking Order Puts Chicken on Top
Four recipes using chopped cooked chicken.

Cook lots of chicken at once, chop and plan for some delicious quick meals. These recipes serve a dozen people. So if your family is smaller...you'll get just that many more dishes for your freezer! I like to spend a day doing the chicken and vegetarian dishes and another doing the beef dishes. When I'm done my Month's Worth usually turns into six weeks worth of planned dishes. It costs up front to buy that much groceries but it saves both money and time over the next several weeks.

Instructions and ideas for Mega Cooking found in Chicken Day! and in The Return of Chicken Day!

Managing a kitchen in a large family can be a pretty exhausting task. It certainly isn't something that can take care of itself! With that in mind I am always looking for ways to make the kitchen experience easier, more enjoyable, or just plain manageable. Mega cooking, recipes, teaching children how to cook, organizing the kitchen are just some of the topics addressed in my Kitchen Chaos series. This index contains the entire series, not just the recipes.

Kitchen Chaos Individual Recipe Index

I have posted more than one recipe on each of my cooking pages. For your convenience I have submitted this individual index so you can find which recipe is on which page. I hope you enjoy them. Remember that my recipes are altered to be for a family of twelve. If your family is smaller, many of the recipes can be prepared as is and then divided and frozen for additional meals during stressful times. This index is just for listing the recipes and does not include the other kitchen and cooking articles.
