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...

I went shopping!

Hello again, Let's be honest, we all love to see what others buy. I know I do! I've picked up some new beauty products and I thought I'd share them with you. This is several trips/purchases put together in one post. Grab a snack and some iced tea. It's going to be a long one!  Here are the goods. Some are repurchases, some are new. I can't wait to dig into these babies! I'll say a bit about each product.  Covergirl Clump Crusher- I've been a long time fan of Covergirl mascaras. Clump Crusher has made it's way into my favorite spot. It has a plastic brush with a curve to it so it easily reaches all of the lashes. As the name implies it doesn't clump AT ALL! I didn't believe it till I tried it and now I alway have a tube of this. I stock up when it's buy one get one 50% off.  I ordered the next three products off Hautelook a few weeks ago. This is the foundation I always use. It's several shades swirled together as a liquid then baked on a ...
