It is hard to get everything right and get it all done when you are a new mom with little ones underfoot. The days that I can get supper accounted for and in the crock pot are days when there is a bit of a bounce to my step!
Here are some really easy things to do with chicken.
Start with boneless, skinless, chicken breasts (a less expensive option would be thighs--they're just as good. Be sure to take the skin off!)
- Mexican chicken. Add a jar of your favorite salsa.
- Italian chicken. Add a jar of your favorite spaghetti sauce.
- Orange chicken. Combine orange marmelade, BBQ sauce, and a dash of soy sauce. (Sorry I don't have exact measurements here, but I really don't think you can go wrong. If you like it sweeter, go heavy on the marmelade. If you like it more BBQ-y, do equal parts.)
Cook on Lo for 8 hours or Med for 4-6.
I'm all for doing things as easy as possible. What good is a good meal if you are exhausted and cranky when it is time to sit down and eat it?
Better to live in a desert than with a quarrelsome and ill-tempered wife.
(Proverbs 21:19)
