Notes

For chicken – you can use a store bought rotisserie chicken or leftover chicken you have on hand. To cook chicken breasts, preheat oven to 350. Line a baking sheet with foil. Season chicken breasts with salt, pepper and a dash of oregano. Bake for about 40 minutes until cooked thoroughly. Set aside until cool to touch. Shred with a fork.
