Quick Tip
To shred a rotisserie chicken, pull off the breasts and legs with your hands (if you're squeamish, you can use a knife); remove
the bones and, using 2 forks, pull the meat apart. A 2 1/2 pound rotisserie bird will yield 3 1/2 to 4 cups of meat.

FRESH PICK
Cranberries
High in vitamin C, these hard, tart berries are grown in bogs in colder regions of North America and Europe. They’re almost
always eaten cooked, as in the classic Thanksgiving relish.
