BBQ in the crockpot-a working mom's dream...

Now that I have been back to work full-time I have been trying to make at least one meal a week in the crockpot. Last week I made another "whatever" I have in the pantry crockpot dinner. It was my first time doing boneless chicken breasts in the crockpot and it turned out amazing! So tender, tender enough in fact that my 11 month old could eat it. I also loved the fact I could just throw the chicken breasts in frozen because I HATE thawing chicken. I never can get it right before it starts to actually cook part way.

So a couple days ago was another day I needed to come up with a dinner right out of my pantry and I wanted to utilize my reliable crockpot. I decided I wanted to make bbq chicken. I found a recipe and I can report back that it turned out wonderful.

The first night I served it over rice and the next night we made bbq sandwiches. I also got a package of coleslaw to serve on the sandwich with the chicken, I love that combo! I can also report my little boy loved this recipe too! So a picky little one who is discovering his taste buds loves this recipe, I'm sure you will too!

1 cup kethup


4 tbsp lemon juice


1 tbsp honey
