Tonight we had “Busy Day Chicken” Served with macaroni and cheese with green beans tomatoes and bacon and cheddar bay biscuits.
Ingredients
- 1 (4 pound) whole chicken
- 1 1/2 cups prepared barbecue sauce
Directions
- Put chicken, legs up, into slow cooker. Pour sauce over and inside the chicken. Cover.
- Cook for 8 to 10 hours on low setting. It is not a good idea to check it, as steam escapes and it takes quite awhile to reheat.
I’m gonna say that this recipe DID NOT taste how I thought it was going to. The ratings on it were 4.5/5, This chicken did fall right of the bones, but it was FLAVORLESS and a little dry.
If we were rating this chicken alone we would probably say 3/5 stars at the very most, I would not be making this chicken again. The rest of the chicken I don’t want to waste so, I will be making it into chicken salad for sandwiches.
For the biscuits I used the Bisquick recipe
Ingredients
- 2 1/4 cups Original Bisquick mix
2/3 cup milk
Directions
Heat oven to 450. Stir ingredients until soft dough forms. Drop by spoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheet.
I added a cup of shredded sharp cheddar cheese and garlic pepper.
They turned out amazing
Tonight was Shake-N-Bake pork chops, Mashed potatoes and Gravy with Green beans tomatoes and bacon.
Very easy and delicious.
I always only use Baby reds for mashed potatoes [fake potatoes gross me and everyone in this house out :P], I am lazy and I hate peeling potatoes, you can leave the skins on the reds, and the amount of vitamins in the skin is amazing, so good for you.
The pork chops are just covered in Shake-n-Bake and cooked until they internal temperature reaches 165 F.
Green beans, is two cans of green beans one can of fire roasted tomatoes and crumbled cooked bacon. My family will not eat the green beans unless they are cooked like this.
This was the 1st time in my life that I have made edible gravy from scratch, EVER. I watched an instructional video that was made by my cousin on how to make the gravy. It turned out perfect infact my dad was raving about this gravy.
Family rating : 4/5 stars
Good Morning foodies :)
This morning my family wanted waffles and bacon for breakfest so that is what we had :)
I used Bisquick for the 1st time this morning to make the waffle batter, I ususally make it from scratch but the Bisquick was on sale at Sams Club and I needed it for another recipe I’m making a little later in the week.
- 2cups Original Bisquick® mix
- 1 1/3cups milk
- 1egg
- 2tablespoons vegetable oil
Just put it into the waffle iron (I have a Warning Pro iron) until the steam stops coming out of it.
I also added butterscotch chips to the waffles for a sweet treat, you can add so many things to waffles, I will be showing more variations later.
The bacon I cooked on the George Foreman grill, I never cook bacon, well because I hate to be splashed by the grease, then my dad brought to my attention that if I cooked it in the grill that this would not happen. The bacon came out perfect.
