Cooking & Baking

...but when I buy one of those roasted chickens from Costco, I'll eat the pieces I want then dump the rest in the pressure cooker with some water. I cook it about 20-30 min (lately I've been doing it in the Instant Pot--easier), let it depressurize naturally. The meat just falls off the bones and the bones basically disintegrate--except for the leg and thigh bones. I remove those, use the broth (add more water if needed to make 2.5 cups) and meat with a cup of rinsed brown rice, a half cup of steel cut oats, a couple of diced carrots, a cup of frozen green peas and a cup of frozen green beans (sometimes I add 1 cup chopped cabbage). I cook it about 10 min under pressure. This is food for my dogs. They are in hog heaven! Dog food is getting really expensive but this helps keep costs down. You may have to adjust proportions...I rarely measure--but I think they're about right.
