Hey there everyone! How was your Monday?? Mine has been long and productive! I’m thankful to have tonight off from teaching so I could be home to get some things on my to-do list knocked out!

Yesterday was a beautiful and sunny day here in Springfield, but I still decided to break out my Crock Pot! I love my free time on the weekends too much to worry about cooking a big evening meal on Sundays. So ‘set it and forget it’ cooking is a must!

On Sunday morning I hopped on Pinterest to find a recipe for some Crock Pot chicken that used ingredients I had on hand. I pieced a few things together and came up with a great combo that Nick loved!

This recipe is just about as simple as can be!

Ingredients:

• 4-6 frozen chicken breasts
• 1 bottle BBQ sauce
• 1 large can of sliced pineapple in juice
• 2 tbsp minced onions
• 2 tsps garlic salt

Layer your frozen chicken in the bottom of the slow cooker. Then pour about half the bottle of BBQ sauce evenly over the chicken.

Sprinkle the minced onions and garlic salt on top of the BBQ sauce, and then layer the pineapple slices on top.

Pour any remaining pineapple juice over the top of the pineapple. Lastly, pour the remaining BBQ sauce over the top of the pineapple layer and cover it.

Set that baby on low…

And let it cook for 4-6 hours. It should start looking like this!

I gave it a good stir around the 4 hour mark, and then let it continue cooking for 2 more hours.

It’ll be nice and dark when it’s all ready to go! It’s amazing how well the pineapple slices hold up and actually soak up a lot of the BBQ sauce. They ended up being Nick’s favorite part! I served the chicken in whole breast pieces with a pineapple slice or two on top with some extra sauce as well.

Lots of chicken and pineapple chunks on my plate! Along with a few veggies…

The chicken turned out extra tender and was a big hit! I made a large batch so we would have leftovers to eat on this week.

Yum yum yum!! This recipe was wayyy too easy. I think next time I make it, I’ll use crushed pineapple and shred the chicken at the 4 hour mark. Then I can serve the meat on some sweet Hawaiian rolls for a tasty meal that could feed a crowd!Whip up this easy and tasty meal the next time you’re in a bind for something different and quick!

I hope you enjoy slow-cooker cooking as much as I do. It’s a big staple around my house, especially during this time of year!

Have a great evening everyone. Comment and let me know how your Crock Pot recipes are turning out! Nighty night!
