    after you eat what you want, boil it off the bone and then make chicken and dumplings. there is a low cal recipe on spark people, that is pretty good...

    Chicken tacos! Or mix it into a marinara sauce and serve over pasta or squash.

    Chicken and mushroom omelette is a good fallback in my house, 5 mins and you have a good protein rich meal.

    I do really love just having chicken with a little salad cream as a dip so that's my normal choice but you could make a quickie pizza using a wholewheat wrap, some tomato sauce and veg,the chicken and a little cheese, then pop it under the grill.

    I cannot remember the site I read it on, but if you search for 'a week of meals with a rotisserie chicken' it will give you a lot of great recipes.

    I love eating chicken with salsa on it! So good, and salsa is super low calorie so it adds nutrients and flavor without adding a lot of calories.

    Eat some plain with delicious side dishes tonight, pick the easy-to-get stuff off the bones and use it in chicken tacos, boil the rest off to use in soup/stews.

    I have a recipe for mac n cheese where instead of just cheese you use a salsa and then mix in the chicken. I think it's called "mac cheese chicken", and I use the rotisserie chicken for that. It's yummy!

    I always use them for soup. Shred it up and put it in with some veggies and chicken stock and rice/pasta. I also have made this chipotle chili with a rotisserie chicken: http://budgetbytes.blogspot.com/2012/10/chipotle-chicken-chili-or-c3-951-recipe.html
