Crockpot Garlic Brown Sugar Chicken

I don't know where i got this one from...looking through my recipes and found it. Figured hey, i like sugar and i love garlic....lets do it!



When I plan to put chicken over rice or noodles or potatoes...I like to shred it. Not something it says to do, just my own little thing. I really liked this! It was a little bit sweet, my husband wanted to add a little more soy sauce to it. But i enjoyed it and will make this again!

Well folks, I am hoping that I messed up somewhere....because I will never make these again! I follow the recipe no problem. First batch out, didn't look so great so I tried without the parchment paper, even worse! We tried them, the had a very weird taste. So i put them in a cake pan with parchment paper and that was a little bit better, but it still had that same weird taste. Try it for yourself if you'd like, please tell me how they turn out..

Polka Dot Cake

I have been working on things for my daughters 1st birthday. I found this and could not wait!!

Sorry its a horrible picture. This is the test run cake. I will put more pictures on when i make the real one. It was so easy! I could not believe it! It was also cute!! I did 12 in a 8 inch round pan, not enough. I will do more this time!!

Pizza Monkey Bread

My cute husband got on my pinterest and found this, and....he didn't repin it. So I can't remember the site I found it on. I changed the recipe as always :)

2 cans of grands biscuits
1 can prego spaghetti sauce
Lots of cheese
Pepperoni's (we used a entire bag of mini's)

Cut the biscuts into 4ths, add almost all of the prego(i left about an 8th of it). Add about 1 cup of cheese and most of the pepperoni's. Stir until all the biscuits are covered with sauce. Put in greased 9 x 13. I cooked it about 40 minutes at 350. The middle wasn't cooked enough, make sure that you check the middle to make sure it is done.











We really enjoyed this one! Easy!! Hardest part is to figure out the cooking time.

Chicken Wraps

Alright...So this one is a dinner FOR pinterest. I made this one up after seeing lot of similar recipes.

1 can cream of chicken soup
1 package of cream cheese
3 cans of Chicken, or any cooked chicken
Seasoning of choice (tony's for me)
3 cans crescent rolls

Mix cream of chicken, cream cheese, and chicken in pot over heat. Once cream cheese is melted, spoon into crescent rolls. Bake at 350 15-17 minutes.



I also made a gravy to go over...I totally made up what i put in it. I used the same pot, not cleaned so it still have some yummy stuff in it. I added chicken bullion, water, garlic salt, flour, and onion flakes. It was very good! I can't wait until I make it again!

Slow Cooker Buffalo Chicken

How good does that sound?? I love the slow cooker part, because that means I dont have to spend hours cooking!

http://www.emilybites.com/2012/07/slow-cooker-buffalo-chicken.html

Ingredients:
3 lbs raw boneless skinless chicken breasts (the original recipe used frozen breasts, but I used them unfrozen, so it appears you can do either)
12 oz bottle of Buffalo wing sauce (I used Frank's Wing Sauce)
1 oz packet of dry Ranch mix (I used Hidden Valley)
2 T light butter

Directions:
1. Place the chicken breasts in your slow cooker. Pour the bottle of wing sauce over the top of the chicken. Sprinkle the packet of ranch mix over the top of the wing sauce. Place the lid on your slow cooker. Cook on low for 7-9 hours until meat shreds easily.
2. Remove meat and shred it using two forks. Return shredded meat to the sauce and add the butter. Stir to combine. Continue to cook on low for another hour so the meat can soak up the sauce. Serve however you like!

What did I change? I thought you'd NEVER ask!! I didn't add butter....and I only did 4 chicken breasts. We loved this! Put it on some warm homemade bread. YUM! I also cooked on high for about 3-4 hours. Keeper :)
