Crock Pot Newbie

I am very new to the crock pot cooking. almost everyone i know has one. So my husband has recently bought me one (thank you husband). It seems so easy just SET it and FORGET it is what ive heard people say. but don't really forget about it cause then it will burn or will it? here is my first every crock pot meal. 
Bacon wrapped BBQ Apple Chicken

what you will need
3-4 chicken breast ( I used chicken 6 Chicken strips)
1/2 cup BBQ sauce
1/2 apples, peeled and grated (I cut mines into slices)
1 lemon (juiced)
6-8 slices of bacon

Directions:


First I cut up the apple into strips


Then added BBQ sauce 


Then added juice of 2 Lemons


Then wrapped the bacon around the Chicken strips 


Lined the bottom of the crock pot with the Bacon wrapped chicken


Stirred the apple BBQ sauce mixture and poured it on top the Bacon wrapped chicken.


set in on low for 8 hours and forgot about it. I only waited about 5 hours then  i served it with some mash potatoes. 



Here is what it looked like. It was very delishuzzzz. & I don't like BBQ sauce. 

Please feel free to leave a comment below. I would love to here what's your favorite recipes and if you have ever used a crock pot. =D

Happy New Year!

Oh the joy of starting off FRESH! I don't really make new years resolutions but this year I will. My new years resolution is to be more organized (who's isn't). I've been searching online about how to become more organize and there are so many helpful tips and printables.  I do love a new beginning.




Here is something Me and Riley made to help us get organized.
We got the frame from the dollar tree. (Which is the best dollar store cause everything is a dollar and under.)

I made the blue boxes in photoshop.

Then we googled angry birds (because Riley is so into angry birds right now) & this awesome picture popped up which is perfect cause Riley also loves super heroes. 

We printed them both out on two separate pieces of paper and layed them on each other in the frame.

Now we have our very own dry erase calendar!! 


WHATS YOUR NEW YEARS RESOLUTION?
& HOW DO YOU STAY ORGANIZED?
