Going to the Farmer's Market this time of year is so rewarding. So many fresh vegetables at great prices. It makes putting together a simple, healthy dinner really easy.
1 cup pineapple juice
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/3 cup light soy sauce
2 lbs chicken breast
Cook in crock pot on low 6- 8 hours and it should just fall apart.
Note: I brushed the chicken with some BBQ sauce and put under the broiler for a few minutes, to blacken the outside.

The best thing about this dinner menu is that by using the crock pot, I was able to spend the afternoon at the pool and come home to a dinner already cooked. It was a relaxing Sunday, with a healthy meal to end the day.
And the big news of the day was - my husband got his first hole in one, playing golf in the afternoon!

Congrats to your hubby....wow that is awesome and not easy to do! I'm going to make this for sure. One thing so far I have enjoyed about an empty nest is making all the meals my daughter turned her nose up at...but cooking less has been a struggle. I'm a huge one pot cooking fan. Happy Monday!
ReplyDeleteYummy recipe, thanks for sharing! I love fresh veggies! Congrats to the HUBS on the hole-in-one:) I bet he will do it again! Hope you have a wonderful day!
ReplyDeleteLooks delicious and so simple! Just pinned this! :)
ReplyDeleteStopping over from Mom's Test Meal Mondays.

ReplyDeleteI'll definitely have to give it a try!
I might even toss in some strips of green peppers!
Sounds like a delicious meal Vicki

Hiya, I found your blog on 'blog hops everday' and I am now following you. I have to say that post has made me really hungry. Those vegetables look lush! Can I have an invite for dinner ;-)
ReplyDeleteHope you can stop by my place too!
Congrats to hubby! And your meal looks fabulous! We'll have summer a little longer here in FL...I'm so glad! Enjoy your week!
ReplyDeleteThis chicken sounds delicious! I am going to make it - I usually do not do crock pot recipes in the summer- we normally grill. But... for this I will make an exception! We go to our local farmers market here and we have a garden plot in our community garden too - we have tons of fresh stuff every weekend- I love it!!
ReplyDeleteJust love using the crockpot and always looking for new recipes to make in it. So convenient. I'll be trying this one soon. Joined your site as a follower, so I'll be back to see what you have in store next. Karen @ BakingInATornado
ReplyDeleteLove the look of that chicken. I must go to more farmers' markets. Have a good week.
ReplyDeletePS I know you have probably been busy. Just a wee reminder that it would be great if you followed Carole's Chatter back. Cheers
