Ty Mandy, I’m gonna try the last recipe but on toasted English muffins since I don’t buy pizza “crust@ or pillsbury rolls to roll out as a crust. I think fresh pineapple sounds amazing! Maybe next time; I’m using what I have on hand today. 🙂👍🏻
Yes I would like to see easy to make recipes. I have can chicken and canned salmon in my cupboards. It is hard for me to cook because I drop things and make a mess. I like snacking size items I really enjoy your show and your family. I really enjoy Gracie Lou and her personality. Thank you.
I like to mix canned chicken (drained) with Alfredo sauce, shredded Provolone, shredded Parmesean, and some pepper. Spoon onto French bread slices and bake until bubbly. I also make Knorr noodles (or rice) with a twist. Cook Knorr according to package directions. About halfway through cooking time, add canned chicken (drained) and frozen peas. Continue cooking until noodles are done, and have a one pot meal ;)
My mom makes chicken roll ups with canned chicken. So it’s canned chicken, ranch, cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, seasonings (salt, pepper, garlic powder) and then you spread it on tortillas and slice it up. It’s literally so delicious and I always ask for them when I host a party.
Keep the pantry staples coming, girl, we need all the help we can get with these grocery prices and shortages, gotta be creative. And, yes, pineapple on pizza 🥰🥰.
I always keep plenty canned chicken (and canned tuna) on hand because my dog has periodontal disease where his teeth are all loose (they'll eventually all fall out), and he can't eat hard foods anymore. He can't eat his dog food at all, and he loves canned chicken, and any soft canned meat.
@@soniabergeron8711 that's so sad, poor puppy-dog. IMHO, it's terribly sad when poor innocent animals suffer, as they bring such joy into our lives. I pray your furbaby gets well.
Hi Mandy, love the recipes . Here is a tip, that chicken juice in the can of chicken has a really good flavor. It enhances every recipe I use it in. If I'm not using it in the recipe my kitty cat loves it as a treat. She comes running when I open the can. Many people think it's really salty but it's not, it has about a much as chicken broth. Just thought I would share that with you. I would like to see recipes using crescent dough, either the individual ones or the the crescent dough sheets.
Great video. Right down to business, no repetitive blathering on. Love your creative editing. That soup is brilliant. So glad I found your channel. Stay real girl, you’re awesome.
My family uses canned chicken for enchiladas. They are delicious! 2 cans of chicken, tortillas, rotel, 2 small cans of cream chicken soup, 1 cup of sour cream, shredded colby. Rinse and shred the chicken, in a bowl mix soup, sour cream, and rotel.. put a few spoonfuls of chicken in each tortilla with a little filling and shredded cheese. Save the rest of the filling and cheese for the top.. bake at 425 for about twenty minutes or until bubbly. I usually get 7- 8. I've been making these since I was a teenager, for over ten years. My kids devour these!
TY! I too, keep canned chicken in the pantry. I buy the stack of 4 cans when Walmart has them on sale ~ I buy 2 stacks of 4 cans = 8 cans, and I primarily use them for many versions of chicken salad. I make my own salad dressing, BTW. My favorite chicken salad recipe is 1 can of chicken salad, minced onion, minced cornichons, or sweet gherkins, or halved seedless green grapes, and coarsely chopped walnuts. I add a little cracked pepper and enough mayo to coat everything. I prepare this ahead of time so that all the ingredients can get acquainted. Serving this chicken salad on croissants, I agree wholeheartedly, is the only choice.
I keep lots of canned chicken on hand! I make soup with it. Super easy! Also use for sandwiches. Make a white sauce and add 6 boiled eggs chopped, a can of chicken and favorite seasonings and serve generously on a piece of toast. A go to favorite.
I stocked up on Sam’s canned chicken in 1999. There were rumors about “stuff” happening when the century changed to 2000. So, the year changed any nothing happened, and I had all this chicken. I started making my “Y2K-sadillas”. I drained the chicken, added grated cheese and picante sauce. I put this mixture on a flour tortilla, added extra cheese on top, topped with another tortilla and browned in the skillet. I cut into wedges and served with sour cream and picante sauce. I’m still making them now.
Since September is preparedness month, I’d love to see your ideas for some completely shelf stable meals! No fresh or refrigerated foods! Something you could make your family with just a heat source as we’ve been prone to lose power after hurricanes or sometimes bad storms. Love your channel! Thank you for sharing all your time and ideas with us!!
I rarely used canned chicken until recently. Now it is a staple in my emergency pantry. Bumble Bee chicken has less sodium than most other brands and the salt is easy to rinse out. I also save the drained liquid to add to broth or soups as it is easily stored in the freezer.
Literally just made chicken tacos with canned chicken today lol. I have a bunch of canned chicken in my pantry and had no idea what to do with them so this video came at the perfect time!
Good Afternoon Mandy - I’ve always kept the canned chicken in my Hurricane Prep kit. I love all the ideas for using it - your recipes look yummy!! I have used it to make easy Chicken Enchiladas, chicken salad and soups. I love these themes you are doing: potatoes, rice, canned chicken! Please keep them up. My husband loved your cilantro lime rice! Maybe canned salmon or tuna next? Or canned pumpkin with fall coming on? Thank you!
I desperately need a recipe for canned salmon! Here in Virginia I cannot find Pacific salmon ~ only Atlantic! I insist on Alaskan and/or Pacific salmon and can only get Alaskan wild caught salmon in cans. My salmon patties always fall apart in the frying pan. HELP!
You can make chicken enchiladas with the canned chicken?? I have been wondering about using it for enchiladas. Do you happen to have a recipe for them.
Quick tip - You can soak your onion in cold water and it will help to omit some of the "strongness" of the flavor. Thanks for sharing! Those croissants from Sam's are literally my favorite! I will snack on them too! 🤣 Delicious! I can't wait to try some of these. Canned chicken is so easy to use for chicken salads!
@@busygirl4474 Yes! I learned that trick about 15 years ago and I tell everyone! Lol. Typically, in my area, certain onions are cheaper than others so I will substitute them and soak them if the dish doesn't need the extra "flavor". And my daughter LOVES to eat them.
Thanks so much for the tip about soaking the onion, I never thought of doing that before...I don't enjoy cutting onions, so I must try that next time I use an onion... Have a beautiful day!
I do keep canned chicken in the pantry for “just in case” use - it’s pretty good! I also keep Better Than Bullion to make stock with. Easy pantry staples. Love this video.
🍁 I have never thought of buying canned chicken, i do not trust canned meat. But that is silly, our armies in ww2 would have had canned meat! So is a good idea actually, i will buy some, all depends on the cost! Lol
@@AvaT42 it's actually really good! Canned tuna is pretty good right?😊 I have not tried anything other than canned chicken or tuna, so I can't speak to the canned beef & ham & others lol.
@@AvaT42 I use canned chicken a good 75% of the time I'm making "homemade" chicken noodle soup, especially when I'm sick or in a pinch. No one in the house is ever able to tell! 😂 I just make sure I let it boil at least an hour to make sure it's really moist & tender! 😊
@@AvaT42 I have a quick easy canned chicken casserole recipe to try. You will not know it is canned chicken. Mix canned chicken, mixed veggies (you chose), cooked pasta, and an Alfredo sauce (you can make or use a jarred sauce). Mix up, put in a casserole dish, bake 350* for 30 min. You can add cheese if you like. I had a man make this for me on a movie date at his house. SOOOO good!!!
I use canned chicken all the time, one of our favorite ways to use it is with rice! I make a few bags of Knorr rice and add a few cans of chicken have a salad and broccoli on the side and it is such an easy weeknight dinner and everyone loves it! Thank you for these ❤️
Mandy.. don't know if you do this or not, but if you will put the pizza stone into the oven and heat it to the 400° before you start putting your items on, it will begin cooking the bottom of the crust while you are layering it. You just have to be careful as you're laying your sauce and toppings on. It's absolutely delicious that way. I also put a little bit of olive oil around the crust, when it comes out of the oven but before I put the sauce on. That's only if I'm making a regular pizza. Got the tip from a young man who was attending a cooking school.
I make chicken salad out of canned chicken all the time. I think the texture is so much nicer. I also use it in chicken casseroles like chicken and rice or chicken noodles. Oh and I love pineapple on pizza.
I use canned chicken A LOT! We just polished off a 5 qt pot of chicken noodle soup: 1 can chicken, not drained; 4 cups chicken broth; 1 cup dehydrared mixed vegetables; seasonings ... water if needed, and Amish ABC's pasta. My 40 year old son loves his ABC's😂 All ingredients are shelf stable, easy to put together and feeds a lot. Love watching you both! Such fun and inspiration, recommended by Momma Mel!❤
I love this video idea-- keep the canned chicken series coming. It's so neat to see what others might use it for. I typically only use it for making chicken salad, BUT I have used it once in chicken casserole, when in a pinch on time. No one was the wiser. :) Edited to say, I could see canned chicken being a delicious addition for making a chicken cheese steak for a quick night meal. Warm chicken through on the stove with some spices, melt some cheese on top, put into a roll, and air fry to get the bread crisped up. YUMMY! I bet this would also be delicious used in a chicken florentine ring (like you would make on a baking stone), YUM!
Yes, please! More canned chicken, rice-a-roni, stove top stuffing recipes! These meals fill in the gaps and help us not to blow our grocery budget on busy days!❤
I make bar-b-q chicken, bacon, jalapeño pepper, pineapple pizza. It's AMAZING! My kids are grown now with kids of their own and they make this for their kids, just like I did for them. Ahhh the memories. 😊
I mixed cream of chicken soup with carrots and potatoes with the canned chicken, onion and poultry seasoning. Then made stuffing balls in oven to be crispy on the outside. Then poured the soup mixture over the stuffing. Husband loved it, he said it was like thanksgiving leftovers.
I became addicted to Arby's Pecan Chicken Salad Sandwich. You can imagine my heartache when I went to get my weekly sandwich and to be told it is a seasonal item and won't be on the menu until next summer. I would not settle for that!! So after some brainstorming. I made up a list of the ingredients that were in it and proceeded to trying to copy the salad. I have to admit, when I first saw the sandwich on the menu, I thought it was weird, but I am a foodie and like trying different foods. I purchased the sandwich, but also got French Dip in case I didn't like it. BOY WAS I WRONG! I make this salad all the time now (just can't get enough of it). I don't measure, just eyeball and go with my taste buds. Ingredients are chopped celery, cubed Honey Crisp Apple (squeeze lemon juice over all the apples to prevent them from changing color), Red Seedless Grapes halved, 2 cans of drained chicken, chopped Pecans. I still haven't figured out the dressing they use, but what I make is close enough and good. For the dressing, I use mayonnaise with just a dab or pinch of sugar in it to give it a little sweetness. Then I stir it all together. The crunch & salty of the nuts mixed with the sweetness of the apples and grapes, then add in the savory chicken...............OMG!! Sometimes I spread it on bread for a sandwich, or on a romaine lettuce leaf for a roll, or just by itself. Now I have to go make some more! I also use the canned chicken when I make soups, I like adding chopped Green Chiles to almost all my soups or casseroles for that extra kick of flavor. Thank you for sharing these recipes, I will have to try them when I have more room in my freezer. I freeze my leftovers for those days when I just don't feel like cooking and doing dishes. Yep! I am lazy in my old age! Thank you for all the wonderful recipes you share with us.
I haven't had Arby's chicken salad sandwich but if it's anything like the Napa Chicken salad at Panera, I'm almost certain that I would 😊 I found a dupe recipe for the dressing online though and it is spot on! 👌 All it is is Dukes Mayo, a drizzle of honey, fresh lemon juice, sour cream or Greek yogurt, a little basil, onion powder, and dried ground mustard (go super easy on the ground mustard it is very potent it only takes a pinch...too much and it will give an awfully bitter taste), a little salt and pepper and you're good to go! Like you I really don't precisely measure anything, I just mostly eyeball and go on taste. I mix the dressing in a separate bowl and then add it to my chicken. I usually always have cubed apples, pecans or walnuts (depending on what I have on hand). Sometimes I'll add sliced grapes or even a little grated sharp cheddar. I prefer to make it with a rotisserie chicken I pick up at Walmart or Costco but I've made it many times with the canned chicken and it's still amazingly good. I think the secret is the ground mustard and the honey...before I had found that recipe, I had never thought about adding either of those ingredients to my chicken salad. Lol that first day I made it like that and tasted it...I was like, YES!! I did it! ❤😊
Bowl cozy. I make and use them for both hot and cold. These recipes are AWESOME! I'm going to share with my granddaughter. She has 5 young children. Plus my husband and I are raising our 5 youngest grandchildren (8,7,5,3,&18 mos). These recipes will be great for my family.
Mandy, I love to watch you! I'm always looking for new recipes. I dislike any canned meat but I'm excited to try the recipes with a rotisserie chicken. I just bought one at the grocery. My cat Wheel-Well is ecstatic. His love of chicken rivals Grace-Lou's love of cheese. He can hear the crinkle of the chicken bag in the next room. He loses his aloof dignity everytime he smells chicken.
I love the name Wheel Well. Bet we can figure out why Kitty Kattie has that name? We had a cat named "Shorty's Cat" because it was our dog Shorty's. When Shorty was no longer with us his cat got in the fan belt of the SUV. She survived but her name changed to "Fan Belt Kitty". Should have been "Vet Bill Kitty" but she was worth it.
Hi Mandy ! I prefer fresh chicken to the can !but it’s good to know I can resort to the can if I need to . The recipes look delicious and will try them . I tried the potato recipe. The French onion one! I didn’t have gruyere cheese . It didn’t taste bad at all all using Parmesan! But I think the gruyere cheese will be better tho! Tks for the great ideas!
I always keep canned chicken on hand. I use it for chicken salad, casseroles, and sometimes soup! I have to try that 7 can soup. That looks like a real winner! I hope your husband's headache got better soon.
I make this soup regularly but as an “8-can” taco soup…add a can of cream of chicken. Also, use Rotel instead of the diced tomatoes…takes it to a whole new level.
Never saw your channel before and don’t usually have canned chicken on hand. Now I’m a subscriber and I’ll be picking up the chicken the next time I go shopping. I hate to cook because I have better things to do than to figure out recipes that take forever to prepare. These I LOVE! Thank you!
I had canned chicken so found a chicken and noodles recipe on Pinterest. We had it tonight and it was delicious. Now I have more canned chicken recipes. Thank you Mandy
Greetings from connecticut...I some how stumbled upon ur channel and no lie iv spent the past 2 hours going thru ur videos....1st off congrats on your 21 years of marriage...amazing....I love u and think ur channel is awesome!
I always have canned chicken on hand. I use them from salads to soups to baked dishes. One of my favorites is adding precooked rice or mashed potatoes and a can of peas and carrots with a tablespoon of Better Than Bouillon Low Sodium Chicken Base. Mix this all together with a healthy dash of Tony Chachere's Creole Seasoning and top with your favorite cheese. Bake till cheese is melted and browned. Love your vlogs! Keep cooking!
I have never used canned chicken! These all look awesome and the soup how much easier can you get ☺️ love it! I so enjoy your channel and my cat Blossom comes running to watch whenever she hears Gracie Lou! Love your family and so enjoy watching all your content. God bless! ❤❤
Mandy, I use one can chicken, mix vegetables, gravy, 2 crusted pie. So easy to make for dinner. You can add potatoes, sometimes I add cream of mushrooms. Who doesn't like pot pie. My granddaughter is coming over next week to make it with me. Passing it along, I hope she likes it. Thanks for your other recipes to share. Yummy.
I enjoyed your additional ideas on how to use canned chicken since I go gung-ho when I buy it from Costco but the best thing I got out of your video was your soup cozy!!! I immediately pulled up Amazon and ordered two sunflower ones!! I never thought they existed!
It's a bowl koozie! We love making quesdaillas with the canned chicken. I season the chicken like tacos, but don't go as heavy on the seasonings. It's a great quick weeknight meal!
We always keep canned chicken in our pantry. We use it primarily for chicken salad and chicken alfredo. The pizza looks amazing, and as you were making it I thought to myself I would swap the poblano pepper for a bell pepper, and add pineapple. It made my pineapple pizza loving heart happy to see you add it on at the end! I think you should consider adding a pantry staple video for oatmeal. It may seem weird, but I add it into my meatloaf instead of bread crumbs. You can't even tell it's in there, but it's so delicious!
I have always been hesitant to use canned chicken. I didn't expect that the quality would be very good. Thanks for showing me that it's better than I thought.
This is a terrific go-to recipe. you can also add a packet of dry hidden valley ranch mix with the taco seasoning, it adds a lot of flavor. I'm usually doing it with ground beef and w/o the green chili sauce. But the canned chicken is great to have on hand. In fact.. with the economy they way it's headed and food shortages on the horizon it's a real good idea to have a bunch of canned items on hand. chicken , tuna, salmon, etc. they last a long time.
I use canned chicken mostly for chicken salad and buffalo chicken dip, but i’m certainly going to give these a try! thank you for this content. I love your videos!!
Chicken salad made with canned chicken is pretty much my favorite chicken salad. I also use canned chicken to make my own condensed cream of chicken soup because my wife is gluten free. Great channel and content Mandy!
Thank you for your recipes. Yes, we keep canned chicken in our pantry. Hoping to do my own canning soon. One of hubby's favorites is a chicken ramen soup. I put 2 cups water in a sauce pan on high. Chop 1/2 an onion and toss it in. Slice 1 med carrot (or chop if a big one) and toss it in. Add about 2 handfuls of frozen cut green beans and bring to a boil. Once boiling add 1 can chicken breast with the broth. Cover and bring back to a boil. I break up the chicken a little bit so they are not big chunks. Add the bullion packet to the boiliing water, break the ramen in quarters and cook 3-4 minutes covered. I let it stand about 15 minutes to absorb some of the broth and to cool a bit. Stir and it is ready.
My husband adores chicken tortilla soup. I am always looking for the recipe he likes best. I seem to have found it in the seven can recipie! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
I love to use canned chicken. My favorite thing to do with it is to get the Knorr pasta sides or Pasta Roni or anything similar and cook it per the box directions, then add cream cheese, canned chicken, some kind of vegetable (peas, green beans, broccoli etc) and top with some shredded cheese. Great for customization by not adding the cream cheese or using different veggies or different kinds of cheese. Quick and easy meal!
I usually fix Chicken Salad with canned chicken, but in January 2022, I made a quick Chicken & Noodle Soup with the canned chicken. It wasn’t bad! I would like to see recipes made with staples, something most of us has in their pantry. Thank you Mandy, NORMA COLLINS FROM TEXAS
Yess! I always keep canned chicken on hand I use it in the suddenly pasta salads as a quick pasta salad lunch and I also use it to make chicken salad. All of these recipes looked yummy and will have to give'em a try!
Yes I keep canned chicken on hand, I make barbecue chicken quesadillas, 1 large can chicken, touch of taco sauce, a little salsa, and barbecue sauce, 4oz green chili's, (optional) shredded cheddar, put mixture in tortillas, fold, fry in pan until golden with a bit of butter, so good and so easy! 🤗 I love all your videos Mandy 🙂
I love these recipes. I started buying canned chicken several months ago as part of my prepper pantry, but I find myself using it for some of my every day cooking. I can’t wait to try these recipes. So far I’ve mostly used it for tacos. Maybe you could think about doing a video on canned tuna?!
Hey Mandy! I made the chicken salad with two small tweaks from this Texan LOL. I added some jalapeño juice (you could dice up some pickled ones too and add if you want). And I served wine some avocado - cheers! Thanks for sharing. It was YUMMY
I always keep a couple cans of chicken in my pantry. I’ve made tacos, soup 🍲, quesadillas and different variations. I also love pineapple on my pizza but hubby doesn’t, although I do sneak some in once and awhile. Thanks again for some great ideas 💡🙏🇨🇦
I have Never used canned chicken. I’m 62. Wow, used it for quick crunchy chicken patties. Yum. Your soup and the pizza I want to try. You make it look so good. Have to make my husband like it.. Glad to make something new. Thank you!!
I like having canned chicken on hand to make a quick chicken salad I try and do lower sodium too, I like to add whatever veggies I have on hand to add to the chicken salad too, I like to use a little bottled Ranch dressing when I use mayo too, I would love to see more canned chicken recipes, thank u for your videos too!
Loved all these options for canned chicken! And yes, yes pineapple does belong on pizza.....I think that's what I will try on our BBQ chicken pizza! Thanks so much, Mandy! Hello to all and have a great week!🥰
Have to admit I’ve never used canned chicken but I’m definitely trying some of these recipes. Not too sure about the pineapple but I would try it. I love all your videos . You’ve given me so many different options for recipes that we now use consistently. Can’t thank you enough for breaking the monotony of the same recipes week after week in my house . ❤️
This is such a great idea to use the pantry staple food. I struggle with doing new things with them and this is perfect. Thanks so much and keep them coming ☺️
I agree, pineapple belongs on pizza. I love your videos!! Thank you!! What a wonder family ya'll are. Your bright personality brightens up my day. Sheryl from New Orleans ❤️
Pineapple would be fantastic on that! I never used to use canned chicken, but when we started worrying about supply chain issues and food shortages, we started adding it to the pantry. Now I use it quite a lot, and am always pleasantly surprised by the results. I always rinse mine in warmth water when I drain it, and it eliminates the canned taste completely. We just finished up a southwest chicken and rice casserole I made with it that my family went crazy for. But I most often use it fir chicken salad sandwiches, chicken fritters, and melts. All are a great book club food.
I recently started using canned chicken and my husband won't eat chicken salad any other way. It's tasty, cheap and easy to keep in the pantry. Thanks Mandy for additional recipes I can experiment with.
Not a big fan of canned meat of any kind but would like to try these recipes using a Rotisserie also almost all your recipes I can tweak for my Husband he's Diabetic but would like to see recipes specifically for a Diabetic
Hi Mandy, I am a "food prepper" and I can chicken and keep it in my pantry all year long. I use it for a quick meals like creamed chicken over biscuits, chicken potpie, buffalo chicken dip.... The recipes are endless. Oh did I forget to say I love to can my own food, especially meats? Love your videos. ❤ ❤ ❤
@Donna( Firefighter wife) In your comment you mentioned that you use can chicken for cream chicken over biscuits. That sounds so yummy!!! Was wondering if you follow a recipe or is it something you put together?? Thank you in advance for responding.😀
I always have a can on hand. I use it wherever I use chicken. I add a can to a can of chicken noodle when I am in a hurry. Chicken salad..I also add real bacon crumbles to my chicken salad. It's so versatile and handy. I think I am going to try the pizza with pineapple. I think you are right. It would be sweet and savory.
Used can chicken for soups, chicken salad, and homemade chicken pot pie! I'm new to your channel. I made your blueberry muffins recipe Saturday morning and we loved it. Also made you breakfast casserole yesterday morning. yum.. 😋 i will be trying more recipes for sure!
I am pro Pineapple especially on pizza! I am excited to try the Sandwich too and Chicken Salad Sandwiches used to be a staple in my meal plan so easy. Yes please continue the pantry series as you are helping so much to get simple but delicious meals on the table quickly using what I already have on hand! Thank for great channel and content 😀
I made the soup tonight, OMG it smells delicious. always keep canned chicken on hand. use it for Buffalo chicken dip, chicken salad, basically anywhere I need to use shredded chicken it works.
Hi Mandy! Great recipes in this video. I am looking forward to trying them. I think Gracie Lou was meowing so much because she wanted chicken not cheese. Cats are carnivores so they love meat. Try giving her some chicken and I bet she gobbles it up!!! My cat, Jessie is now 18 years old and a little diva. When she wants something she will meow and meow until she gets it. My cat loves cheese and meat!!!! Have a super week. 🐱💟💖
I agree I think Gracie was saying she wanted chicken not cheese! I am cat person and so I totally get this comment. They say dogs have owners cats have staff for a reason. Your Jessie sounds wonderful. My mom got a cat when she was pregnant with me. Mitzie lived to be 21 years old. She was half pure bred registered Siamese and half really lucky barn cat. With her being half Siamese you can imagine the personality. The joke in our house was I needed to mind my P’s & Qi’s because the cat had seniority. 🐈🐈🐈 I was going to comment about my opinion on pineapple on pizza 🤮 but then I saw the raw tomato in your recipes and I thought maybe I just won’t say anything. 😁 I feel about raw tomato the way Steven feels about cream cheese in savoury dishes. LOL. I am mostly thumbs down on cilantro’s but i like Thai food so I can take it in small doses. I can’t wait to make that soup it looks delicious. And I think I even have everything in the house already.
Pineapple definitely belongs on pizza…so freaking good! It’s like eating Oreo’s and plain potato chips together, you get the sweet with the salty…nom nom nom. I don’t buy canned chicken, too expensive. However, we do can our own when we get chicken on sale. We love having it on hand for quick meals. BTW, that soup looked amazing!
Ps) Mandy, you know how you timestamp your recipes + the intro in your description box? Could you please start time-stamping Gracie Lou cameos?! 🤣🤣 she makes my day!
I have canned chicken and, tuna on hand all the time, I'm going to try all of these recipes, they looked so good and, I know my family will love them! Thanks so much!
Cozy. We always have the canned chicken from Sam's on hand. I only use it for a simple lunch with chicken, diced onion and Miracle Whip. I will give some of your recipes a try. My husband is not always open to change, but he will try. He may like the BBQ one. These recipe all sound delicious. Thank you!
I also keep canned chicken on hand. I use it when I make buffalo chicken dip. Makes it a tad faster to make. I also add it to chicken flavored rice mixes. Have used it for quick chicken quesadillas too. These ideas look AMAZING!!!! Thank you and I love your channel!!!!!!! 😊
Thank you for the video. It gave me creative ideas for the numerous cans of chicken I have in my pantry. When I don’t have time to break apart 2 rotisserie chickens to make white chicken chili, I use canned chicken and add a little Smoke in the bottle to it.
Want to watch another video using another common pantry staple?? Here you go! th-cam.com/video/pl2UMsqoASs/w-d-xo.html
Yes pineapple on barbecue chicken pizza
How about canned smoked oysters? My wife makes a delicious Oyster Stew and sauteed with a chipotle and tomato based sauce over rice.
Ty Mandy, I’m gonna try the last recipe but on toasted English muffins since I don’t buy pizza “crust@ or pillsbury rolls to roll out as a crust. I think fresh pineapple sounds amazing! Maybe next time; I’m using what I have on hand today. 🙂👍🏻
Yes I would like to see easy to make recipes. I have can chicken and canned salmon in my cupboards. It is hard for me to cook because I drop things and make a mess. I like snacking size items I really enjoy your show and your family. I really enjoy Gracie Lou and her personality. Thank you.
I like to mix canned chicken (drained) with Alfredo sauce, shredded Provolone, shredded Parmesean, and some pepper. Spoon onto French bread slices and bake until bubbly. I also make Knorr noodles (or rice) with a twist. Cook Knorr according to package directions. About halfway through cooking time, add canned chicken (drained) and frozen peas. Continue cooking until noodles are done, and have a one pot meal ;)
Your baked bread treats sound delicious, too.
Sounds good, ty!!
@@sonjabaker426 .
Ty, sounds delicious!
Chicken enchiladas
My mom makes chicken roll ups with canned chicken. So it’s canned chicken, ranch, cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, seasonings (salt, pepper, garlic powder) and then you spread it on tortillas and slice it up. It’s literally so delicious and I always ask for them when I host a party.
Sounds delish! Are they eaten cold or hot?
Keep the pantry staples coming, girl, we need all the help we can get with these grocery prices and shortages, gotta be creative. And, yes, pineapple on pizza 🥰🥰.
Oooh, yes, pineapple goes great with barbecue sauce!
I always keep plenty canned chicken (and canned tuna) on hand because my dog has periodontal disease where his teeth are all loose (they'll eventually all fall out), and he can't eat hard foods anymore. He can't eat his dog food at all, and he loves canned chicken, and any soft canned meat.
@@soniabergeron8711 that's so sad, poor puppy-dog. IMHO, it's terribly sad when poor innocent animals suffer, as they bring such joy into our lives. I pray your furbaby gets well.
Hi Mandy, love the recipes . Here is a tip, that chicken juice in the can of chicken has a really good flavor. It enhances every recipe I use it in. If I'm not using it in the recipe my kitty cat loves it as a treat. She comes running when I open the can. Many people think it's really salty but it's not, it has about a much as chicken broth. Just thought I would share that with you. I would like to see recipes using crescent dough, either the individual ones or the the crescent dough sheets.
Great video. Right down to business, no repetitive blathering on. Love your creative editing. That soup is brilliant. So glad I found your channel. Stay real girl, you’re awesome.
My family uses canned chicken for enchiladas. They are delicious! 2 cans of chicken, tortillas, rotel, 2 small cans of cream chicken soup, 1 cup of sour cream, shredded colby. Rinse and shred the chicken, in a bowl mix soup, sour cream, and rotel.. put a few spoonfuls of chicken in each tortilla with a little filling and shredded cheese. Save the rest of the filling and cheese for the top.. bake at 425 for about twenty minutes or until bubbly. I usually get 7- 8. I've been making these since I was a teenager, for over ten years. My kids devour these!
P
Do you soften the tortillas (if corn) in oil or anything?
@@jellicle1684 I don't.. I've only ever used flour tortillas. I don't think it'd be good with corn ones
This sounds delicious 😋
TY! I too, keep canned chicken in the pantry. I buy the stack of 4 cans when Walmart has them on sale ~ I buy 2 stacks of 4 cans = 8 cans, and I primarily use them for many versions of chicken salad. I make my own salad dressing, BTW. My favorite chicken salad recipe is 1 can of chicken salad, minced onion, minced cornichons, or sweet gherkins, or halved seedless green grapes, and coarsely chopped walnuts. I add a little cracked pepper and enough mayo to coat everything. I prepare this ahead of time so that all the ingredients can get acquainted. Serving this chicken salad on croissants, I agree wholeheartedly, is the only choice.
I like this series because of the looming food shortages we keep hearing about, thanks Mandy.I love Lou, she is so cute!
I keep lots of canned chicken on hand! I make soup with it. Super easy! Also use for sandwiches. Make a white sauce and add 6 boiled eggs chopped, a can of chicken and favorite seasonings and serve generously on a piece of toast. A go to favorite.
When making the 7 Can Soup.. use the chicken broth from the can- FLAVOR! 💥
I stocked up on Sam’s canned chicken in 1999. There were rumors about “stuff” happening when the century changed to 2000. So, the year changed any nothing happened, and I had all this chicken. I started making my “Y2K-sadillas”. I drained the chicken, added grated cheese and picante sauce. I put this mixture on a flour tortilla, added extra cheese on top, topped with another tortilla and browned in the skillet. I cut into wedges and served with sour cream and picante sauce. I’m still making them now.
Since September is preparedness month, I’d love to see your ideas for some completely shelf stable meals! No fresh or refrigerated foods! Something you could make your family with just a heat source as we’ve been prone to lose power after hurricanes or sometimes bad storms. Love your channel! Thank you for sharing all your time and ideas with us!!
I rarely used canned chicken until recently. Now it is a staple in my emergency pantry. Bumble Bee chicken has less sodium than most other brands and the salt is easy to rinse out. I also save the drained liquid to add to broth or soups as it is easily stored in the freezer.
Excellent ideal.......saving the drained liquid!
Literally just made chicken tacos with canned chicken today lol. I have a bunch of canned chicken in my pantry and had no idea what to do with them so this video came at the perfect time!
Good Afternoon Mandy - I’ve always kept the canned chicken in my Hurricane Prep kit. I love all the ideas for using it - your recipes look yummy!! I have used it to make easy Chicken Enchiladas, chicken salad and soups. I love these themes you are doing: potatoes, rice, canned chicken! Please keep them up. My husband loved your cilantro lime rice! Maybe canned salmon or tuna next? Or canned pumpkin with fall coming on? Thank you!
YES! I would love to see canned tuna or salmon, too. Or even more chicken recipes! It can be so versatile.
Great ideas!!
I desperately need a recipe for canned salmon! Here in Virginia I cannot find Pacific salmon ~ only Atlantic! I insist on Alaskan and/or Pacific salmon and can only get Alaskan wild caught salmon in cans. My salmon patties always fall apart in the frying pan. HELP!
You can make chicken enchiladas with the canned chicken?? I have been wondering about using it for enchiladas. Do you happen to have a recipe for them.
Here is a recipe in one of the comments before yours .Just .
Chicken and dumplings……chicken Pattie’s/nuggets….any casserole like broccoli and rice or mac and cheese…the list is endless
Quick tip - You can soak your onion in cold water and it will help to omit some of the "strongness" of the flavor.
Thanks for sharing! Those croissants from Sam's are literally my favorite! I will snack on them too! 🤣 Delicious! I can't wait to try some of these. Canned chicken is so easy to use for chicken salads!
I always rinse my onions in cold water when eating them raw. Definitely takes the pungent taste away and keeps the onion crisp!!
@@busygirl4474 Yes! I learned that trick about 15 years ago and I tell everyone! Lol. Typically, in my area, certain onions are cheaper than others so I will substitute them and soak them if the dish doesn't need the extra "flavor". And my daughter LOVES to eat them.
I didn't know that about onions. Thanks for the tip.
@@sharlaynecanesmom4839 You are more than welcome! 😊
Thanks so much for the tip about soaking the onion, I never thought of doing that before...I don't enjoy cutting onions, so I must try that next time I use an onion... Have a beautiful day!
We always have Cosco canned chicken on hand…love these canned chicken ideas, keep them coming Mandy, I love your voice it’s very soothing.
I do keep canned chicken in the pantry for “just in case” use - it’s pretty good! I also keep Better Than Bullion to make stock with. Easy pantry staples. Love this video.
🍁 I have never thought of buying canned chicken, i do not trust canned meat. But that is silly, our armies in ww2 would have had canned meat! So is a good idea actually, i will buy some, all depends on the cost! Lol
@@AvaT42 it's actually really good! Canned tuna is pretty good right?😊 I have not tried anything other than canned chicken or tuna, so I can't speak to the canned beef & ham & others lol.
@@AvaT42 I use canned chicken a good 75% of the time I'm making "homemade" chicken noodle soup, especially when I'm sick or in a pinch. No one in the house is ever able to tell! 😂 I just make sure I let it boil at least an hour to make sure it's really moist & tender! 😊
@@AvaT42 I have a quick easy canned chicken casserole recipe to try. You will not know it is canned chicken. Mix canned chicken, mixed veggies (you chose), cooked pasta, and an Alfredo sauce (you can make or use a jarred sauce). Mix up, put in a casserole dish, bake 350* for 30 min. You can add cheese if you like. I had a man make this for me on a movie date at his house. SOOOO good!!!
Try Keystone canned roast beef and canned shredded pork. Amazingly good.
I use canned chicken all the time, one of our favorite ways to use it is with rice! I make a few bags of Knorr rice and add a few cans of chicken have a salad and broccoli on the side and it is such an easy weeknight dinner and everyone loves it! Thank you for these ❤️
Mandy.. don't know if you do this or not, but if you will put the pizza stone into the oven and heat it to the 400° before you start putting your items on, it will begin cooking the bottom of the crust while you are layering it. You just have to be careful as you're laying your sauce and toppings on. It's absolutely delicious that way.
I also put a little bit of olive oil around the crust, when it comes out of the oven but before I put the sauce on. That's only if I'm making a regular pizza. Got the tip from a young man who was attending a cooking school.
I make chicken salad out of canned chicken all the time. I think the texture is so much nicer. I also use it in chicken casseroles like chicken and rice or chicken noodles. Oh and I love pineapple on pizza.
I use canned chicken A LOT! We just polished off a 5 qt pot of chicken noodle soup: 1 can chicken, not drained; 4 cups chicken broth; 1 cup dehydrared mixed vegetables; seasonings ... water if needed, and Amish ABC's pasta. My 40 year old son loves his ABC's😂 All ingredients are shelf stable, easy to put together and feeds a lot.
Love watching you both! Such fun and inspiration, recommended by Momma Mel!❤
I love this video idea-- keep the canned chicken series coming. It's so neat to see what others might use it for. I typically only use it for making chicken salad, BUT I have used it once in chicken casserole, when in a pinch on time. No one was the wiser. :)
Edited to say, I could see canned chicken being a delicious addition for making a chicken cheese steak for a quick night meal. Warm chicken through on the stove with some spices, melt some cheese on top, put into a roll, and air fry to get the bread crisped up. YUMMY!
I bet this would also be delicious used in a chicken florentine ring (like you would make on a baking stone), YUM!
Canned chicken in broccoli
Rice casserole if not enough of fresh or just
Heat a can for shredded
Chicken sandwich.
Yes, please! More canned chicken, rice-a-roni, stove top stuffing recipes! These meals fill in the gaps and help us not to blow our grocery budget on busy days!❤
I make bar-b-q chicken, bacon, jalapeño pepper, pineapple pizza. It's AMAZING! My kids are grown now with kids of their own and they make this for their kids, just like I did for them. Ahhh the memories. 😊
I mixed cream of chicken soup with carrots and potatoes with the canned chicken, onion and poultry seasoning. Then made stuffing balls in oven to be crispy on the outside. Then poured the soup mixture over the stuffing. Husband loved it, he said it was like thanksgiving leftovers.
I became addicted to Arby's Pecan Chicken Salad Sandwich. You can imagine my heartache when I went to get my weekly sandwich and to be told it is a seasonal item and won't be on the menu until next summer. I would not settle for that!! So after some brainstorming. I made up a list of the ingredients that were in it and proceeded to trying to copy the salad. I have to admit, when I first saw the sandwich on the menu, I thought it was weird, but I am a foodie and like trying different foods. I purchased the sandwich, but also got French Dip in case I didn't like it. BOY WAS I WRONG! I make this salad all the time now (just can't get enough of it). I don't measure, just eyeball and go with my taste buds. Ingredients are chopped celery, cubed Honey Crisp Apple (squeeze lemon juice over all the apples to prevent them from changing color), Red Seedless Grapes halved, 2 cans of drained chicken, chopped Pecans. I still haven't figured out the dressing they use, but what I make is close enough and good. For the dressing, I use mayonnaise with just a dab or pinch of sugar in it to give it a little sweetness. Then I stir it all together. The crunch & salty of the nuts mixed with the sweetness of the apples and grapes, then add in the savory chicken...............OMG!! Sometimes I spread it on bread for a sandwich, or on a romaine lettuce leaf for a roll, or just by itself. Now I have to go make some more! I also use the canned chicken when I make soups, I like adding chopped Green Chiles to almost all my soups or casseroles for that extra kick of flavor. Thank you for sharing these recipes, I will have to try them when I have more room in my freezer. I freeze my leftovers for those days when I just don't feel like cooking and doing dishes. Yep! I am lazy in my old age! Thank you for all the wonderful recipes you share with us.
Try using a little sour cream or Greek yogurt to your dressing
Ty for posting ty ty
That happened to me, too so I just kept driving through without ordering anything. Bummer, Arby's.
I haven't had Arby's chicken salad sandwich but if it's anything like the Napa Chicken salad at Panera, I'm almost certain that I would 😊
I found a dupe recipe for the dressing online though and it is spot on! 👌
All it is is Dukes Mayo, a drizzle of honey, fresh lemon juice, sour cream or Greek yogurt, a little basil, onion powder, and dried ground mustard (go super easy on the ground mustard it is very potent it only takes a pinch...too much and it will give an awfully bitter taste), a little salt and pepper and you're good to go!
Like you I really don't precisely measure anything, I just mostly eyeball and go on taste. I mix the dressing in a separate bowl and then add it to my chicken. I usually always have cubed apples, pecans or walnuts (depending on what I have on hand). Sometimes I'll add sliced grapes or even a little grated sharp cheddar.
I prefer to make it with a rotisserie chicken I pick up at Walmart or Costco but I've made it many times with the canned chicken and it's still amazingly good.
I think the secret is the ground mustard and the honey...before I had found that recipe, I had never thought about adding either of those ingredients to my chicken salad.
Lol that first day I made it like that and tasted it...I was like, YES!! I did it! ❤😊
Thanks that is one of my favorites also!
Bowl cozy. I make and use them for both hot and cold.
These recipes are AWESOME! I'm going to share with my granddaughter. She has 5 young children.
Plus my husband and I are raising our 5 youngest grandchildren (8,7,5,3,&18 mos). These recipes will be great for my family.
Mandy, I love to watch you! I'm always looking for new recipes. I dislike any canned meat but I'm excited to try the recipes with a rotisserie chicken. I just bought one at the grocery. My cat Wheel-Well is ecstatic. His love of chicken rivals Grace-Lou's love of cheese. He can hear the crinkle of the chicken bag in the next room. He loses his aloof dignity everytime he smells chicken.
My kitty too♥️
I love the name Wheel Well. Bet we can figure out why Kitty Kattie has that name? We had a cat named "Shorty's Cat" because it was our dog Shorty's. When Shorty was no longer with us his cat got in the fan belt of the SUV. She survived but her name changed to "Fan Belt Kitty". Should have been "Vet Bill Kitty" but she was worth it.
Hi Mandy ! I prefer fresh chicken to the can !but it’s good to know I can resort to the can if I need to . The recipes look delicious and will try them . I tried the potato recipe. The French onion one! I didn’t have gruyere cheese . It didn’t taste bad at all all using Parmesan! But I think the gruyere cheese will be better tho! Tks for the great ideas!
I always keep canned chicken on hand. I use it for chicken salad, casseroles, and sometimes soup! I have to try that 7 can soup. That looks like a real winner! I hope your husband's headache got better soon.
I make this soup regularly but as an “8-can” taco soup…add a can of cream of chicken. Also, use Rotel instead of the diced tomatoes…takes it to a whole new level.
Never saw your channel before and don’t usually have canned chicken on hand. Now I’m a subscriber and I’ll be picking up the chicken the next time I go shopping. I hate to cook because I have better things to do than to figure out recipes that take forever to prepare. These I LOVE! Thank you!
I had canned chicken so found a chicken and noodles recipe on Pinterest. We had it tonight and it was delicious. Now I have more canned chicken recipes. Thank you Mandy
Greetings from connecticut...I some how stumbled upon ur channel and no lie iv spent the past 2 hours going thru ur videos....1st off congrats on your 21 years of marriage...amazing....I love u and think ur channel is awesome!
These all look really yummy! The dill pickle chicken salad and 7 can tortilla soup are the first ones I want to try. Thanks Mandy!🙂👍
I always have canned chicken on hand. I use them from salads to soups to baked dishes. One of my favorites is adding precooked rice or mashed potatoes and a can of peas and carrots with a tablespoon of Better Than Bouillon Low Sodium Chicken Base. Mix this all together with a healthy dash of Tony Chachere's Creole Seasoning and top with your favorite cheese. Bake till cheese is melted and browned. Love your vlogs! Keep cooking!
I have never used canned chicken! These all look awesome and the soup how much easier can you get ☺️ love it! I so enjoy your channel and my cat Blossom comes running to watch whenever she hears Gracie Lou! Love your family and so enjoy watching all your content. God bless! ❤❤
Mandy, I use one can chicken, mix vegetables, gravy, 2 crusted pie. So easy to make for dinner. You can add potatoes, sometimes I add cream of mushrooms. Who doesn't like pot pie. My granddaughter is coming over next week to make it with me. Passing it along, I hope she likes it. Thanks for your other recipes to share. Yummy.
This video is timely as I have been staring at the canned chicken in my pantry wondering about new ideas. Thank you!
I enjoyed your additional ideas on how to use canned chicken since I go gung-ho when I buy it from Costco but the best thing I got out of your video was your soup cozy!!! I immediately pulled up Amazon and ordered two sunflower ones!! I never thought they existed!
It's a bowl koozie! We love making quesdaillas with the canned chicken. I season the chicken like tacos, but don't go as heavy on the seasonings. It's a great quick weeknight meal!
Great idea!! 👍 We love quesadillas.
Koozie is what I call it, too.
I do this too! The first time, I did it in a pinch, then discovered it was so good and easy that I kept doing it.
Always in my pantry. Great for quick soup, fav for mini chicken salad. As my family shrinks there isn't a need for large amounts to be prepared.
We always keep canned chicken in our pantry. We use it primarily for chicken salad and chicken alfredo. The pizza looks amazing, and as you were making it I thought to myself I would swap the poblano pepper for a bell pepper, and add pineapple. It made my pineapple pizza loving heart happy to see you add it on at the end! I think you should consider adding a pantry staple video for oatmeal. It may seem weird, but I add it into my meatloaf instead of bread crumbs. You can't even tell it's in there, but it's so delicious!
I use oatmeal too. Sometimes I use rice. It absorbs all the grease really well and tastes delicious!!
I have always been hesitant to use canned chicken. I didn't expect that the quality would be very good. Thanks for showing me that it's better than I thought.
I make the 7 can taco soup often but I usually use rotisserie chicken. It’s so yummy!! Eager to try these other recipes!
This is a terrific go-to recipe. you can also add a packet of dry hidden valley ranch mix with the taco seasoning, it adds a lot of flavor. I'm usually doing it with ground beef and w/o the green chili sauce. But the canned chicken is great to have on hand. In fact.. with the economy they way it's headed and food shortages on the horizon it's a real good idea to have a bunch of canned items on hand. chicken , tuna, salmon, etc. they last a long time.
I use canned chicken mostly for chicken salad and buffalo chicken dip, but i’m certainly going to give these a try! thank you for this content. I love your videos!!
I got a good buy on flakes of turkey, ham and chicken. I could do all of these recipes with each of them. Thank you from London, Ontario, Canada.
Chicken salad made with canned chicken is pretty much my favorite chicken salad. I also use canned chicken to make my own condensed cream of chicken soup because my wife is gluten free. Great channel and content Mandy!
I always have canned tomato sauce/pasta sauce, chick peas, canned pork, canned beef. Keep the pantry staples coming
I've always loved those 7 can recipes! Never had a bad meal 😋
Thank you for your recipes. Yes, we keep canned chicken in our pantry. Hoping to do my own canning soon. One of hubby's favorites is a chicken ramen soup. I put 2 cups water in a sauce pan on high. Chop 1/2 an onion and toss it in. Slice 1 med carrot (or chop if a big one) and toss it in. Add about 2 handfuls of frozen cut green beans and bring to a boil. Once boiling add 1 can chicken breast with the broth. Cover and bring back to a boil. I break up the chicken a little bit so they are not big chunks. Add the bullion packet to the boiliing water, break the ramen in quarters and cook 3-4 minutes covered. I let it stand about 15 minutes to absorb some of the broth and to cool a bit. Stir and it is ready.
Girl, YES!!! Pineapples are a NECESSITY for pizza!!! YES!! I'm so glad to hear someone else agrees😘
My husband adores chicken tortilla soup. I am always looking for the recipe he likes best. I seem to have found it in the seven can recipie! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
I love to use canned chicken. My favorite thing to do with it is to get the Knorr pasta sides or Pasta Roni or anything similar and cook it per the box directions, then add cream cheese, canned chicken, some kind of vegetable (peas, green beans, broccoli etc) and top with some shredded cheese. Great for customization by not adding the cream cheese or using different veggies or different kinds of cheese. Quick and easy meal!
That sounds good!
I do the same thing! I call them my concoctions.
Great idea
I usually fix Chicken Salad with canned chicken, but in January 2022, I made a quick Chicken & Noodle Soup with the canned chicken. It wasn’t bad!
I would like to see recipes made with staples, something most of us has in their pantry.
Thank you Mandy,
NORMA COLLINS FROM TEXAS
Yess! I always keep canned chicken on hand I use it in the suddenly pasta salads as a quick pasta salad lunch and I also use it to make chicken salad. All of these recipes looked yummy and will have to give'em a try!
Yes I keep canned chicken on hand, I make barbecue chicken quesadillas, 1 large can chicken, touch of taco sauce, a little salsa, and barbecue sauce, 4oz green chili's, (optional) shredded cheddar, put mixture in tortillas, fold, fry in pan until golden with a bit of butter, so good and so easy! 🤗 I love all your videos Mandy 🙂
I love these recipes. I started buying canned chicken several months ago as part of my prepper pantry, but I find myself using it for some of my every day cooking. I can’t wait to try these recipes. So far I’ve mostly used it for tacos. Maybe you could think about doing a video on canned tuna?!
Hey Mandy! I made the chicken salad with two small tweaks from this Texan LOL. I added some jalapeño juice (you could dice up some pickled ones too and add if you want). And I served wine some avocado - cheers! Thanks for sharing. It was YUMMY
I always keep a couple cans of chicken in my pantry. I’ve made tacos, soup 🍲, quesadillas and different variations. I also love pineapple on my pizza but hubby doesn’t, although I do sneak some in once and awhile. Thanks again for some great ideas 💡🙏🇨🇦
I have Never used canned chicken. I’m 62. Wow, used it for quick crunchy chicken patties. Yum. Your soup and the pizza I want to try. You make it look so good. Have to make my husband like it.. Glad to make something new. Thank you!!
I love making the chicken salad using chopped sweet pickles or sweet relish instead of dill.
Same!! I just can’t do dill in chicken salad!!😂
I like having canned chicken on hand to make a quick chicken salad I try and do lower sodium too, I like to add whatever veggies I have on hand to add to the chicken salad too, I like to use a little bottled Ranch dressing when I use mayo too, I would love to see more canned chicken recipes, thank u for your videos too!
Loved all these options for canned chicken! And yes, yes pineapple does belong on pizza.....I think that's what I will try on our BBQ chicken pizza! Thanks so much, Mandy! Hello to all and have a great week!🥰
You just blessed my household,I legit had two cans of chicken chuck. This was so goooood, thank you for sharing. ❤
Have to admit I’ve never used canned chicken but I’m definitely trying some of these recipes. Not too sure about the pineapple but I would try it. I love all your videos . You’ve given me so many different options for recipes that we now use consistently. Can’t thank you enough for breaking the monotony of the same recipes week after week in my house . ❤️
YES to pineapple. I've been using canned chicken for quite a few years. It's always handy when I've forgotten to prepare ahead. THanks for shairng.
This is such a great idea to use the pantry staple food. I struggle with doing new things with them and this is perfect. Thanks so much and keep them coming ☺️
I always keep canned chicken. We make all kinds of chicken casserole, chicken salad, dumplings, etc. All your recipes looked wonderful.
I agree, pineapple belongs on pizza.
I love your videos!! Thank you!!
What a wonder family ya'll are.
Your bright personality brightens up my day.
Sheryl from New Orleans ❤️
Pineapple would be fantastic on that! I never used to use canned chicken, but when we started worrying about supply chain issues and food shortages, we started adding it to the pantry. Now I use it quite a lot, and am always pleasantly surprised by the results. I always rinse mine in warmth water when I drain it, and it eliminates the canned taste completely. We just finished up a southwest chicken and rice casserole I made with it that my family went crazy for. But I most often use it fir chicken salad sandwiches, chicken fritters, and melts. All are a great book club food.
Could you share your chicken and rice recipe? I have a lot of rice and a lot of canned chicken 😂
Thanks for the info about warming the chicken. I am going to try it. Don't like that canned taste.
I like using canned chicken in salads and now with your ideas I have more options.
I like using canned chicken for chicken enchiladas! The sauce and sour cream really disguise the “canned” aspect of the chicken.
I recently started using canned chicken and my husband won't eat chicken salad any other way. It's tasty, cheap and easy to keep in the pantry. Thanks Mandy for additional recipes I can experiment with.
Not a big fan of canned meat of any kind but would like to try these recipes using a Rotisserie also almost all your recipes I can tweak for my Husband he's Diabetic but would like to see recipes specifically for a Diabetic
I have a limited food budget as a retied Nurse and I received 2 cans of chicken breast at a food pantry and have been searching for recipes. Thank you
Hi Mandy, I am a "food prepper" and I can chicken and keep it in my pantry all year long. I use it for a quick meals like creamed chicken over biscuits, chicken potpie, buffalo chicken dip.... The recipes are endless. Oh did I forget to say I love to can my own food, especially meats? Love your videos. ❤ ❤ ❤
My guess is your canned chicken is far and away better than what we but in stores. Wish I knew how to can meats at home.🌞
@Donna( Firefighter wife) In your comment you mentioned that you use can chicken for cream chicken over biscuits. That sounds so yummy!!! Was wondering if you follow a recipe or is it something you put together?? Thank you in advance for responding.😀
I always have a can on hand. I use it wherever I use chicken. I add a can to a can of chicken noodle when I am in a hurry. Chicken salad..I also add real bacon crumbles to my chicken salad. It's so versatile and handy. I think I am going to try the pizza with pineapple. I think you are right. It would be sweet and savory.
Used can chicken for soups, chicken salad, and homemade chicken pot pie! I'm new to your channel. I made your blueberry muffins recipe Saturday morning and we loved it. Also made you breakfast casserole yesterday morning. yum.. 😋 i will be trying more recipes for sure!
I do keep canned chicken but previously only made chicken salad with it. Thanks to your video, I now have more options. Yay!
I am pro Pineapple especially on pizza! I am excited to try the Sandwich too and Chicken Salad Sandwiches used to be a staple in my meal plan so easy. Yes please continue the pantry series as you are helping so much to get simple but delicious meals on the table quickly using what I already have on hand! Thank for great channel and content 😀
I made the soup tonight, OMG it smells delicious. always keep canned chicken on hand. use it for Buffalo chicken dip, chicken salad, basically anywhere I need to use shredded chicken it works.
Hi Mandy! Great recipes in this video. I am looking forward to trying them. I think Gracie Lou was meowing so much because she wanted chicken not cheese. Cats are carnivores so they love meat. Try giving her some chicken and I bet she gobbles it up!!! My cat, Jessie is now 18 years old and a little diva. When she wants something she will meow and meow until she gets it. My cat loves cheese and meat!!!! Have a super week. 🐱💟💖
I agree I think Gracie was saying she wanted chicken not cheese!
I am cat person and so I totally get this comment. They say dogs have owners cats have staff for a reason. Your Jessie sounds wonderful. My mom got a cat when she was pregnant with me. Mitzie lived to be 21 years old. She was half pure bred registered Siamese and half really lucky barn cat. With her being half Siamese you can imagine the personality. The joke in our house was I needed to mind my P’s & Qi’s because the cat had seniority. 🐈🐈🐈
I was going to comment about my opinion on pineapple on pizza 🤮 but then I saw the raw tomato in your recipes and I thought maybe I just won’t say anything. 😁 I feel about raw tomato the way Steven feels about cream cheese in savoury dishes. LOL. I am mostly thumbs down on cilantro’s but i like Thai food so I can take it in small doses. I can’t wait to make that soup it looks delicious. And I think I even have everything in the house already.
I love the fact you use what you have!!
Yes, more pantry staple recipes, please!😀
Some good recipes. I am definitely going to try the soup! Your little bowl thing is called a cozy! They are wonderful to have!
Pineapple definitely belongs on pizza…so freaking good! It’s like eating Oreo’s and plain potato chips together, you get the sweet with the salty…nom nom nom.
I don’t buy canned chicken, too expensive. However, we do can our own when we get chicken on sale. We love having it on hand for quick meals.
BTW, that soup looked amazing!
I keep canned chicken on hand and I use it for just about everything. I like the recipes you shared today.
Ps) Mandy, you know how you timestamp your recipes + the intro in your description box? Could you please start time-stamping Gracie Lou cameos?! 🤣🤣 she makes my day!
LOL!!!
Gracie Lou prob wants some of that chicken and the chicken water! Js!
I have canned chicken and, tuna on hand all the time, I'm going to try all of these recipes, they looked so good and, I know my family will love them! Thanks so much!
Yesss! Pineapple, and bacon, too! Here I come pizza, lol
Thank you, Mandy! And, as always, so happy to have Gracie Lou make her appearance ❤️
Cozy. We always have the canned chicken from Sam's on hand. I only use it for a simple lunch with chicken, diced onion and Miracle Whip. I will give some of your recipes a try. My husband is not always open to change, but he will try. He may like the BBQ one. These recipe all sound delicious. Thank you!
Pineapple 100% belongs on pizza. My favorite two pizzas are ham, Pineapple and tropical chicken from Boston pizza.
Mmm I absolutely love pineapple on pizza. Sometimes I get the special pizza with pineapple added on it and it is amazing!!!
Great ideas! All looked wonderful. I use canned chicken for a quick chicken pie. It's great! The family loves it!
She is adorable and all the dishes looked yummy.
I also keep canned chicken on hand. I use it when I make buffalo chicken dip. Makes it a tad faster to make. I also add it to chicken flavored rice mixes. Have used it for quick chicken quesadillas too. These ideas look AMAZING!!!! Thank you and I love your channel!!!!!!! 😊
Thank you for the video. It gave me creative ideas for the numerous cans of chicken I have in my pantry. When I don’t have time to break apart 2 rotisserie chickens to make white chicken chili, I use canned chicken and add a little Smoke in the bottle to it.
