What's for DINNER????

What's for dinner?  How many times have we all heard that?  Busy lives, stresses, no reason to not have a nutritious meal on the table for all to enjoy. 
This week I will begin posting healthy and not-so-healthy dinners but that are easy and fairly stress free.

For today, Monday, I was at a loss for what to prepare for dinner.  We were up pretty much the entire night with my sister and the EMT's. I have yet to sleep.  So, as I was having my coffee this morning, I began to wonder what would be a good healthy dinner option. 
I'm not one to "plan" a weeks worth of meals. I buy the majority of our food one time a month.  Most days, I just throw stuff together and call it done.  And, it's good, to boot.   Prowling through the freezer I spot some chicken legs and thighs.  "Hummm," I wonder.  I carry the chicken to the pantry and rummage through it and decide BBQ chicken sounds pretty yummy. 
Now, here is where you will need a crock pot/slow cooker.  I do the majority of my cooking in my slow cooker just because I don't like to use my gas stove. It heats up the house...and makes my electric bill high.
This is about as easy as it gets, folks.  Take your chicken, put it in the slow cooker. (I know you are NOT suppose to put frozen food in the slow cooker and normally I do not, but....). Slice up one yellow or white onion.  Throw it in.  Add salt, or sea salt, pepper and garlic POWDER to taste.  Add about 1/4 cup of water and a bottle of BBQ sauce.  Pop the lid on, set to high.  Cook for about 1 1/2 hours on high, then turn down to low and finish cooking, about another 2-3 hours.  YOU DO  NOT NEED TO ADD A LOT OF WATER.  THE SLOW COOKER MAKES IT'S OWN WATER!!!
For a side dish, mashed potatoes, pea salad, macaroni salad, garden salad, corn on the cob, baked beans, anything you like with BBQ.  I will post pictures later of the chicken.  :)
Enjoy and relax!
