You have come a long way already. You did your intensive research and already hatched (or purchased) your chicks. You have built the proper shelter for your flock, with proper temperature, flooring with pine shavings, platforms and shaving areas, all specifications followed by the book. The question that will require you to think thoroughly this time is what to feed chickens? This is one aspect that will require most money because it involves daily consumption.
Raw celery can be added to tuna fish, Waldorf, or slow cooked mediterranean chicken recipe. Stick a stock of raw celery into a tomato-based health drink. Use it to mix the drink and eat it as a crunchy and healthy snack. If adding meat to the soup such as chicken you have some options on how and when to add it to the pot. For some soups (liken homemade chicken) you will just add it to the pot and cook along with the other ingredients. For other soup (such as beef barley) you will want to brown the meat to add more intense flavor. Note: I did not include the 10 hour slow cooker chicken cooking time into the overall 'recipe time' because once the slow cooker is turned on, you don't have to do anything until it's done and ready to eat (except clean up and wash all your dishes!). Since you can do other things during those 10 hours (like sleep or go to work), the 10 hours are omitted. I usually make the stew Sunday evening and have it ready for Monday morning. Salt and pepper the chicken on both sides. Place one tablespoon olive oil into a pan and saute chicken on high heat until it browns, about 20 minutes. Place all the ingredients in a slow cooker or crockpot. Cover the pot and cook on low setting for 8 to 10 hours. Remove the chicken from the pot. Pour the chicken broth through a strainer and store in the refrigerator in a covered container. Allow to chill. As soon as the mediterranean chicken pita is cool enough to handle, remove the meat from the bones, discarding the skin and bones. Store chicken in another covered container in the refrigerator to use as needed.
