Cooking your chicken in bulk is a great way to plan out your week's meals.
However, you'll undoubtedly end up with leftovers that take up space in your refrigerator. So, what are your options? Wait a few days for it to dry out and get rubbery before using it to produce a batch of uninspired, haphazard snacks?
Instead, utilize it to produce three days' worth of delectable, muscle-building meals that are also healthful to prepare.
