I decided to do this crock pot pineapple chicken. Basically you put your frozen (or fresh) chicken into the crock pot, and make a marinade/sauce of brown sugar, soy sauce, chicken broth, garlic, pineapple juice and pour it on the chicken. Then you put the pineapple on the top! I forgot to do th cornstarch part, but I did broil them (which my kids picked the crispy skin off!). This came out DELICIOUS. I would absolutely make it again. My kids both LOVED IT.
Pre and post broiling.
Then I decided I should make my own Hawaiian rolls. MMMMMMMMM.
Pretty easy and the secret ingredient is PINEAPPLE JUICE. I enjoyed these as much as the chicken.
While rising. Pay no attention to how they are all smooshed.
I made rolls and I made a loaf. Mmmm SOMEONE SAVE ME FROM MYSELF.
We also had this random rice thing which didn't work out. Oh well.
Recipe for Hawaiian rolls here Nothing like fresh bread from the oven.....
Overall, will make BOTH THINGS AGAIN.
I also made some sauce from my tomatoes from my garden, I used the same recipe from before....it's a freezer recipe and it made a TON.
These had been ripening for awhile on my counter. I used all of the ripe tomatoes and then went out and picked the rest of the green ones off the vine for another batch of sauce eventually.
I cooked them with onion and garlic this time, no peppers.
Enough to freeze and share. Going to make my own pasta this weekend. FINGERS CROSSED! Overall, it was an excellent day. Lots of cooking. Mmmmmm
