This is a good week to shop for immediate needs with the knowledge that holiday sales are just around the corner. Chicken is a good bet and offered at most stores: Albertson’s whole fryers (.48 lb), Basha’s split chicken breasts (.88 lb), and Fry’s skinless boneless chicken breasts ($1.77 lb) are the best buys.
I like the split chicken breasts as the bones are not that much labor to remove. Place the breasts in a large pan with a quarter-inch of water. Cover the pan and simmer for about 7-10 minutes. Let the chicken cool. Slice the breast diagonally from the thickest meat and pull the meat from the bone. The sliced and torn meat goes very well in a chicken tamale casserole: tear up corn tortillas, add the chicken, a can of cream of chicken soup, sharp cheddar cheese and some water. Cook in a closed casserole dish.
If you get tired of chicken, Safeway’s London broil or Fry’s corned beef brisket makes for a nice change of pace. Sunflower has an intriguing group of bison products also for sale. Sprouts has large, raw shrimp for $2.99 a pound.
Food City as usual has an excellent variety of fruits and vegetables for sale along with Dos Ranchitos corn tortillas and Rogelio Bueno mole mix. Also check out Sprouts and Sunflower. Basha’s green cabbage is a must.
Apples are also plentiful and priced to move. If you’ve never made homemade applesauce you are missing a quick and easy dish that is sure to please. Peel, core and slice your apples. Place in a suitable saucepan or pot, and barely cover with water. Cook on a low flame, stirring the apples periodically. Add sugar and cinnamon to taste.
