Tasty Tuesday

August 31, 2010 By Sarah F. Leave a Comment


For many, this week marks the Beginning Of School. Some of you lucky people out there may have already begun the school year, and yet others will have one more week of Summer. Hubby (local Chester County teacher) officially starts school tomorrow. Not only does he start school, but he also has his first grad class of the Fall. This means he leaves the house at 6:45am, and will not return until after 7:30pm.
That’s a long day.
I’m sure I am not alone. Whether it is a spouses crazy schedule, kids crazy schedule or YOUR crazy schedule, things are sure to be busy from time to time (or every day) this Fall. In some ways, I welcome it. As much as I don’t like being busy and unrested, I do like the routine and rhythem of the Fall. And cooler weather.
Today, I continue with my theme of EASY SCHOOL YEAR RECIPES. Try them. Love them. Print them. Rotate them. Save yourself the stress! In a few weeks, once I have spit out a solid 2 weeks worth of recipes, I’ll do a sample 2 week rotation, complete with links to the recipes. Hopefully, this will make mealtime easy on all of us.
I’m not really sure where I found this recipe. I made it once last year, and kind of forgot about it. The dish was really good though, so I am actually making it this week. I hope you do too!


6 tasty ingredients + slow cooker = awesome.

~~~~~

Slowcooker Pineapple Chicken


•1 bottle barbeque sauce (plain or choose a flavored one for a different taste)
•1/2 of a 15 ounce can pineapple chunks (WITH juice)
•1/2 green bell pepper, diced
•1/2 onion, chopped
•1 clove garlic, minced
•4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves

In a large bowl, mix together the barbecue sauce, pineapple with the juice, green pepper, onion, and garlic. Arrange chicken breasts in the bottom of a slow cooker. Pour sauce over the chicken.

Cook on low for 4-6 hours (varies depending on your slowcooker)

~~~~~

As a side note, this week I will be using a bottle of teriyaki sauce/marinade instead of barbeque sauce. Just to see what happens. And I’m craving a little teriyaki. Can you blame me?

OK – more School Year recipes to come! See you next week!
