Rotisserie chicken cheese pasta recipe

Buying Rotisserie chicken for lunch is so easy and time saving! Especially when you get a good deal on it (like Costco rotisserie chicken)… My kids only like to chicken thighs and drumsticks to eat, so most of the time we end up with a chicken breast leftover. It can be used in so many different ways! You can try in easy rotisserie chicken frittata for breakfast or chicken salad for lunch.

I buy a rotisserie chicken once a week at least to make my life easier! Everyone likes it, and same with our house, we are left with the chicken breasts!

This is so cozy, and bonus, my kids will probably love it! I also have extra roasted chicken to use up too, so this recipe is perfect for crazy weeknights.
