💜 Melanie’s Tips

• Use rotisserie chicken to save time
• Don’t overthink measurements — use what you have
• Add a little extra BBQ sauce on top after baking for more flavor
• Let everyone customize their half (less complaints 🙌)
• Use the Simple Slicer for the red onion — setting 1 for thin slices, setting 2 if you really love red onion, or skip the red onion for those picky eaters 💜
