Canned chicken 🐔 🥫

When I was at Aldi’s the other weekend I picked up some canned chicken after studying the nutrition facts. I was thinking canned chicken is a convenient way of having meat to add to various soups and stews I’m making up. Unlike normal chicken wrapped in plastic and Styrofoam, you don’t need to keep it frozen or even refrigerated, it can be stuck in cupboard or with other dry goods, and is ready when you need it.

Maybe canned chicken isn’t as healthy as canned tuna, as it’s an omega-6 rather then omega-3 fat but it’s good for a change and is a relatively healthy meat-protein source. It’s also very affordable, the package fully recyclable with urban recycling programs. It would be good in quick soups made up at camp, or even at home when I’m not really in the mood to do much cooking but want a quick chicken soup with carrots and other vegetables.
