  1. BBQ chicken is really good with a nice sharp cheddar too! One of my favorite quick meals.

  2. I would have never put these flavors together, but this has become one of our favorite meals! I cook the chicken in the crock pot with BBQ sauce to make prep even easier. Love this recipe…thanks!

  3. My husband and son loved this! I am so excited to have found something I can make, freeze and they can reheat without me.
