Adela's Kitchen: Hawaiian Chicken

Hello again!
Today I'll be sharing a wonderful recipe I found on Pinterest. I tweaked it a little and it was a big hit so I thought I'd share it with you all. For those of you that know me well, you know that crockpot cooking saves my life most of the week. Let's face it, when you work full time and commute, the last thing you want to do is stand at a stove for hours preparing a meal. Crockpots are an awesome alternative. It takes a little planning but it is totally worth it! 

On to the recipe...

Ingredients:


Frozen Chicken Breasts that come in a bag (use as many as you need for your family. I did a single layer in the bottom of my crockpot and we had leftovers)
1 bottle of Sweet n Spicy Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ Sauce. 
1 can of drained pineapple chunks
Salt and pepper
Sriracha (if you like it spicy-I forgot to include it in the photo because I added it last minute)

Directions:
Spray your crock very well with Pam. I use the Olive Oil kind.
Place FROZEN chicken breasts in the bottom of the crock.
Season with salt and pepper.
Pour the entire bottle of BBQ sauce on top of the chicken.
Add you desired amount of Sriracha on top of the BBQ sauce.
Top with pineapple. 
Cook on high for 2-3 hours.
Low for 5-6 hours.

Here's a pic before it's cooked...


I start mine on low in the morning before I leave for work and it's perfect when I get home. 

Here's a pic when it's done...


You can serve over steamed rice or with veggies, like me. It makes a lot of juice that's yummy poured over the chicken. 

That's it! Simple right? If you try it please let me know what you think or if you tweaked it at all. 

P.s. If you're a wuss (just kidding) and don't like spicy food. Then do not use the sweet n spicy BBQ sauce. Use honey or original instead.

Until next time...

Xoxo,
Adela

Get Ready With Me: Sick, but you'd never know it!

Welcome back! We've all had days when we're feeling under the weather and would rather stay in bed all day. Unfortunately, life doesn't always allow us to do so. I had one of these days this past weekend... it was Jr. Prom night for my nephew which means, photos with Auntie (he loved it, trust me)  Here are my tips and tricks on how to look your best when you're feeling your worst.  Let's get started... First things first, start with a clean face. Then, moisturize and prime your skin. I used a heavier moisturizer under primer because my skin tends to get very dry when I'm not feeling well.  An oldie but goodie is Rimmel Fix & Perfect Pro Primer. This is about $5 at Target or drugstores. Concealing is always important. Especially when you're sick. I applied Age Rewind under my eyes and Dream Lumi around my nose to hide extra redness. I blended them in with my fingers using light patting motions.   I evened out my complexion with two fairly recent products...

Adela's at home pedicure

Welcome back! Spring is officially here which means warmer weather and cute sandals! It's time to get those tootsies back in shape! Now I can admit, a professional pedicure can be nice. But if you are short on time and want to save some cash why not do it at home? Today I'll share my at home pedicure routine. I do this year round (Once a month in the winter. Twice a month in the spring/summer). Let's get started... Here are the supplies you'll need: A towel Nail Polish remover Cotton balls Sugar scrub Bath Salts  Lotion Manicure kit Cuticle oil Cuticle remover  Rubbing alcohol in a spray bottle Nail file Buffer Pumice stone  Correcting pen Orange stick Clippers Cuticle clippers Base coat Top coat Polish of your choice  Large bowl to soak your feet I know that seems like a lot, you probably already have these items. If not, you can find most of them at your local dollar store.  Step 1. Remove old polish. This is the polish remover I use. Any brand will work. Step...

Update: Where I've been...

Hello!  You may have noticed that I haven't posted on here in over a month! A lot has been going on in my life. Without going into too much detail I will say that I was not getting enough sleep and there was death in the family. Slowly but surely I have bounced back and I'm ready to move on. I have some new posts planned for you all and want to thank you for sticking with me through my absence. Also, I am still planning on doing a giveaway to celebrate over 20,000 views. You guys are awesome! Your support means the world to me. I can't wait to get back into blogging regularly. If you have any requests, please let me know.  Xoxo, Adela
