Three Easy Recipes That Start With Store-Bought Rotisserie Chicken

Meal planning can sometimes be a bit of a slog—and it's all too easy to get stuck in a rut with the same old lunches and dinners. Fortunately, there are ways to work smarter (not harder!) to make some tasty, healthy meals without a lot of fuss (or even turning on the stove).

On this week's episode of Simply, host Haley Cairo walks us through three fun super easy recipes you can make with a store-bought rotisserie chicken—no cooking required! Another bonus: Most of the dishes can be easily made ahead—which makes them perfect if you're looking to pack a healthy lunch to go.

Haley recommends using the Cozi app to hunt for recipes and add ingredients to your shopping list—so you don't forget that all-essential peanut butter for the satay lettuce cups.
