    Stir Fry your vegetables and then add some of the chicken.

    Shredded Chicken goes well with cabbage. Here is my lunch for today (and the rest of the week, I make it on Sunday)

    Cabbage - Raw, 175 g (shredded)
    Carrots - Raw, 100 g (shredded)
    Beets - Raw, 125 g (shredded)
    Raw Sliced Almonds, 15 g
    Chicken - Breast, meat only, cooked, 100 g (Shredded)
    Apple Cider Vinegar, 2 TBSP

    Also, shredded chicken freezes very well, so I usually make enough for a couple of weeks and freeze it in portion sized baggies. (100 grams of chicken each).

    Sheesh, don't waste it on the cat! LOL I'm with Adini - great ideas! (I'd also quite like her figure, but that's another story! *grin*).

    You should go here, both today and anytime you have an ingredient you need ideas for:

    www.allrecipes.co.nz.

    It will jump to an aussie website but you can just ignore that haha. This is a place where people put up their own recipes, and all you have to do is put shredded chicken in the ingredient search box, and then you can recipe hunt at your leisure. Just did that, and that was a mistake... now I'm really hungry! LOL
  • Mix some shredded chicken and a chopped english cucumber with cucumber dill greek yogurt dip for an amazing chicken salad. I made some this weekend and it didn't last a day.
    Also, Buffalo chicken soup is easy to make and one of my favorites!
