3 Meals From a $5 Costco Rotisserie Chicken | Allrecipes

cream cheese

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: ricotta cheese

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

Alfredo sauce

🥗Healthier: light cream sauce

💰Cheaper: homemade white sauce

Homemade white sauce can be more cost-effective and customizable.

Take the rotisserie chicken and shred it, removing the skin and saving the bones for stock.

Boil the jumbo pasta shells until they are slightly undercooked.

Chop the shredded chicken into smaller pieces for the filling.

In a bowl, combine the shredded chicken, frozen spinach, ricotta cheese, fresh basil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and one egg (optional).

Mix the filling ingredients together until well combined.

Drain the cooked shells and rinse them with cold water to cool them down.

Spoon the filling into each shell and place them into a baking dish with a little olive oil at the bottom.

Spread some Alfredo sauce at the bottom of the baking dish before adding the stuffed shells.

Cover the stuffed shells with more Alfredo sauce, shredded mozzarella, and Parmesan cheese.

Cover the dish with foil and bake it until heated through, then uncover and bake until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
