[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here is what we have done for years - buy a Costco chicken.  Eat it for a couple of days, save the carcass, throw it in instant pot with frozen vegetable inedible parts I save from cooking in a special bag (like onion peels, butts of squash etc).  Stock regime for 30 minutes.  Throw out the bones and inedible veggies (squeeze them out first) and make soup.  It makes an amazing stock.

So you have 2-3 days worth of meat for dinner and then soup stock for $5.

In the meantime, for 2nd part of the week get 1/2 salmon for $30 or, if you eat pork, pork chops at Aldi are good quality and excellent price.
Another really good option is Costco lamb, imported, tends to run about $3 per lamb chop, one is enough for dinner, easy to cook.
We also routinely get chicken thighs with bone, easy to cook, taste great, can also save bones for soup

ALways look at Whole Foods app and buy what is on sale there, quality cannot be beat.[/quote]
