Pure winter comfort food tonight. I got chicken for 99 cents a pound yesterday, so I cooked it all up today, made some chicken salad for sandwiches, made chicken supreme for tomorrow tonight, and I have chicken and dumplings planned for tomorrow, made with homemade chicken stock.

4 or 5 heads of broccoli
