Even though we had some nice warm weather in the last few weeks, winter is not done yet. The last few days were very cold and called for a very hot comforting meal. This is why I decided to make a slow cooker Chicken Pot pie soup. Tastes like chicken pot pie filling minus the crust.
Prep day #2 – One pan chicken
Today, on prep day, I will share with you my one pan chicken meal. This is so easy to make and saves up time on dishes. As you may have seen on my Facebook page, I cooked up a storm in the kitchen this afternoon making, a Ham, a french onion soup, a Chinese macaroni (for the young adults), a decadent chocolate chip square (again, for the young adults) and that famous one pan chicken!
Sunday, also known as prep day!
One thing I learned with the kids growing up was that in order for me to keep my sanity, I needed to be prepared. We all know how it is… every day seems to be the same: Get up, rush to get ready, rush to work, traffic, meetings, meetings, meetings, rush to come home, traffic, prepare evening meal, juggle kids homework, clean-up, bath time, bed time –and not to forget when the kids are involved in extra curricular activity where you need to rush to a practice, game; finally to realize that you had no “Me” time. I’m lucky now because my kids are 18 and 16 so bath time and bed time are on them. However, they still eat… especially my 16 year old son; for those doing the math, yes I was 21 when I had my daughter and 23 when I had my son –some consider this young but I’ll talk about that experience in another post.
