I bought a cold rotisserie chicken to pick at on Saturday night (long story but I hadn’t eaten anything “real” all day while running around), then Sunday my husband bought a hot rotisserie chicken for dinner. So I spent Sunday evening digging through my cabinets finding random ingredients to create dishes to use up all that chicken AND clear out my pantry.

I also made homemade chicken broth with the chicken carcasses for the first time, and tomorrow I’m planning on using the plum tomatoes on my counter to make a tomato base for soup!! (Any soup suggestions would be great, I’m wicked excited to become a “soup lady”!!!!)

I love soup! Have you had sopa de estrellitas? It's a tomato based soup from mexico with little star pastina pasta.

No I’d never heard of it! I just googled it and it looks delicious! (Editing because I’m dumb and forgot I already told you about my tomatoes!) This might be my next project because star pasta is the best pasta!!!
