Friday Recipe: Slow Cooker Barbecue Chicken

I just love good slow cooker recipes, especially on the weekend.  I used to think of slow cookers as winter appliances, but they are great to use in the summer also.  A slow cooker does not really heat up the kitchen like an oven and who doesn't love a great barbecue sandwich in the summer :-)


One of my family's favorite recipes is Zesty Slow Cooker Chicken Barbecue found on allrecipes.com (one of my favorite places to find great recipes!).


Ingredients:


6 frozen boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
1 (12 ounce) barbecue sauce
1/2 cup Zesty Italian Salad Dressing
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce


Directions


1.  Place chicken in a slow cooker.  In a bow, mix the barbecue sauce, Italian salad dressing,
     brown sugar, and Worcestershire sauce .  Pour over the chicken.
2.  Cover and cook 3 to 4 hours on High or 6 to 8 hours on Low.




I take the chicken out and shred with a fork, then spoon some of the sauce over the shredded chicken.


That is it! 


Serving options:


1.  Serve over sandwich rolls with chips and fruit.


2.  Serve with fresh green beans, corn on the cob, and big fluffy biscuits.


YUM!


Blessings!

Military Welcome Home Banner

I always get teary-eyed watching our military return from duty on the news.  Yesterday was one of those days and then I had an idea... a military welcome home banner.  So I sat down last night and created a banner with yellow ribbons, stars, and stripes.  I have listed it on my Etsy storefront for $1.00.  Each section is 7 1/2 inches from top to tip and 5 1/2 inch wide.  There are two options for hanging the banner- It could be one long banner with yellow ribbons as each end or in two sections with yellow ribbons at the end of each sections.  It is just one simple way to say thank you to our troops and their families for the sacrifices they make for our freedom.


Blessings!
