Making a chicken last a week (well, almost)

A roast chicken on its own is a marvellous thing but I also love that the leftovers provide the basis of meals for the rest of the week.  I'm not sure I'll make my little chicken will quite last till Friday but it'll at least give us the basis of a chicken, leek and mushroom pie for a couple of nights and some chicken noodle soup for lunches.

Basics for the weeks meals

Sunday night's tea

Monday Chicken Leek and Mushroom Pie filling: Left over chicken and sauce is left over gravy

Cooked Pie

Eaten Pie (The rest will be scoffed on Thursday)

And Finally Chicken Noodle Soup for a couple of lunches - Broth stock was made from boiling the chicken bones, left over chicken added and spiced up with a few store cupboard ingredients
