Looking for the recipe for your rotisserie chicken leftovers? Try this rotisserie chicken cheese pasta recipe, so creamy and satisfying!
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.

Many thanks to John for providing our first Guest Post. In addition to his involvement with the William Temple Foundation John is also Senior Tutor on the CRES Diploma (see the CRES Button on the main web page).I thank John Reader for pointing out a more detailed article on the first Malvern conference and its environmental implications by Panu Pihkala. This article also considers why it was that the environmental ideas set out in the conference did not seem to get picked up on in the same way as the social agenda. Unfortunately, this article is behind a paywall.Pihkala, P. (2016). Malvern (1941) as a pioneering venture in Christian ecotheology. Journal of Beliefs and Values 37, 296-307.

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.
