Slow Cooked BBQ Chicken Sandwiches

SO EASY. I couldn't believe it.

Slow Cooked BBQ Chicken Sandwiches
(for 2-4 people)

- 2 chicken breasts or chicken legs/wings
- 1 bottle BBQ sauce
- 1 onion
- 4 sandwich buns

Put chicken, onion and 1/2 bottle of BBQ sauce into the slow cooker. Cook on low for 6-8 hours, until chicken is falling off the bone. Pick out all the bones. Add the rest of the sauce (or as much as needed, save a little bit for the buns!) and mix. Add to buns, enjoy!

Goes great with those sweet potato fries!

Slow Cooker Enchilidas

I made this for the first time yesterday and man oh man, those are some good enchiladas. The slow cooker allows the chicken to fall apart, while frozen spinach and black beans provide a filling, healthy dish. This recipe makes 3-4 servings.

Slow Cooker Enchiladas

In the morning/the filling:
- 2/3 can of black beans
- 2 chicken breasts
- 1 package frozen spinach
- 1/2 cup salsa or tomatoes
- green peppers/jalapenos/chilies if desired
- 1 onion, cut into smallish slices
- 8-12 radishes, diced
- 1/2 pack taco seasoning (or 1tbsp cumin, 1tsp cayenne/red pepper, black pepper, garlic powder, cilantro)

Add all ingredients to slow cooker. Cook on low for 6-8 hours.

- 4-6 tortillas
- shredded cheese

After that, preheat the oven to 400. Spray a casserole dish with Pam. Set up 4-6 tortillas in a pan, side by side, so that filling can be easily added. Add 2-3 scoops of the filling into each tortilla. Wrap up each tortilla and place them side by side in the pan. Sprinkle with cheese, salsa, extra filling. Bake for 25 minutes.

Jambalaya

It's been awhile, eh? Here we go! This Jambalaya is very easy to make and makes a lot, which is good because the left overs are good for days. The flavors blend and make it a welcomed lunch. This is a good recipe to get in a lot of veggies without noticing, and except for the sausage is healthy. It's very versatile - use any veggies that are in your fridge and pick and choose your meats. 


Jambalaya

- garlic, onion, peppers - whatever veggies you have, dice them up into small pieces
- combination of chicken, sausage, and shrimp
- rice
- can of tomatoes
- 1/4ish cup water
- 2 bay leaves
- 1tsb oregano, chile powder, garlic powder
- 2 tbsp cajun seasoning (add all spices to taste, the better flavor the better!)


First, start rice in the slow cooker.

Heat some olive oil in a deep soup pot. Add onions, simmer until they begin to become translucent. Add the rest of the veggies except for the can of tomatoes. Saute for 5-10 minutes.

Brown chicken in a separate pan. Cut into chunks, add to the veggies. Add chucked sausage and shrimp to veggies as well.

Add tomatoes, water and seasoning. Simmer for 10ish minutes. Add rice. Simmer for another 10 minutes. Add to water (slowly!) as needed to maintain desired consistency. I tend to like it less watery, but some prefer a broth.
