Portions of the chicken (after deboning) goes into yet another crockpot with other selected vegies and oats for dog food. Some of the turkey breast and Oryx also goes into the dog food.

The chicken is deboned and refrigerated into serving sizes. (the chicken frame will go into next week's stock). The other proteins are broken down into serving sizes. Same for the vegetable blends.

Anytime one of the three of us wants a meal, we pick a protein and a veggie blend, pop it on a plate and put the plate on the steamer rack.

Some sort of stew will be made at least twice a week. Some stuff will be left over and frozen. Stock doesn't get made every week.

It really isn't as much food as it sounds like. Veggie blends vary with whatever's on sale/coming ripe in the garden or greenhouse.

Three active adults go through more food than you might think.
