This holiday season, I have used (and will continue to use) tons of shortcuts. As much as I love to make my own stock, I rely on ready-made products like Pacific Foods Chicken Stock to make my food prep easy and quick. As delicious as fresh cranberry sauce is, I’m simply not going to have a chance to make my own.

Something I love about Pacific Foods products, as well as other products packaged in Tetra Pak cartons, is that there is little waste when it comes to the product packaging. It always makes me feel awesome when I know that I can recycle what is left, and that our precious natural resources are more wisely used and protected.
I have found the Tetra Pak packaging to be easy to use. I love that it’s easy to seal back up and stick in the fridge. I commonly use broth and stock from these cartons.
One of my favorite easy holiday meals is chicken and rice soup. I like to use ready-made stock or broth, a few scoops of rice, and some pre-cooked chicken breast strips. It makes for a delicious, warm, healing soup that is excellent for warming you up after being out in the cold!
