Crockpot Chronicles- That's Not Cat Puke It's Your Dinner!

After my first successful attempt at crockpot cooking I decided I was ready to try something bigger...Italian chicken. The recipe was simple...chicken, cream cheese, butter and a packet of italian seasoning then cook on high for 4 hours. It smelled delicious. The girls kept coming downstairs asking when dinner would be ready. I am ashamed to say that this is what I fed my children for dinner last night.



No girls, that's not cat puke it's your dinner. TASTY right? And it was BEIGE! Not sure how you can screw up a recipe with only 4 ingredients but I did. The flavors actually weren't that bad, but you had to wear a blindfold to eat it. To make it worse I made instant mashed potatoes to go with the chicken (beige) and served it with a roll (beige). Even the apple juice the girls had to drink was beige. When the girls asked how come I wasn't eating, I told them that I was full from lunch. The truth is...I couldn't get past how gross it looked. Like the good wife I am... I wrapped up the leftovers for Ryan to eat when he got home. I was pretty sure that once he got a look at the plate he'd make something else, but I was surprised to find the empty plate in the sink this morning. He actually ate it and liked it! I figured that either he was really hungry or the kitchen was really dark!
