crock pot stir fry

so i am not too sure about this - but we LOVE this recipe and it seems to be pretty "healthy". or maybe i am just telling myself that. of course you can always make things more healthy, right?

so i am not a cook who measures...i go with a feeling i have, a little of this, a smidgen of that...so i tired to pay attention tonight as i cooked this and of course failed to take a picture. but i figured it was only fair that i attempt to contribute to this great blog. thanks heath!


so here you have it:

you need-

angel hair pasta - whole wheat if you desire
1-2 frozen chicken breasts (1 is good for 2 adults)
1 1/2 cups of Honey BBQ sauce
1 cup of orange marmalade
1/2 cup of Lite Teriyaki Sauce
Frozen Stir Fry Veggies - our faves are "pepper stir fry" and "sugar snap peas" - nummy - at least 1/2 a bag.


Mix BBQ sauce, orange marmalade, teriyaki sauce together. Place your chicken in the crock pot and cover with sauce mixture. Cook the chicken for at least 4 hours...the longer the juicier and easier to shred into pieces. That's it! Let it cook. An hour before eating time, add your frozen veggies...the more the merrier. the water they bring in with them, helps the juice ratio stay fair.

Then about 15 minutes before the feast begins, start your pasta. Then voila - a scrumptous yummy dinner that is edible for all ages and enjoyed by all in the Reeder home.

There is really no wrong way to make a made up recipe...so i hope someone is able to enjoy this easy stir fry.

Tiff!!! Thanks for sharing. I cant wait to try this... and I am jealous that you can cook according to feel... I am really not good at that and I'm pretty sure that Sean wouldn't even try to dispute it :)
