Chicken and Coke in the Crockpot Recipe

I know. You’re out of ideas for dinner. You’re out of ingredients and you won’t get to the grocery store until tomorrow. Well, if you have a can of coke and some chicken, you’re in luck. Just season your chicken with salt and pepper, throw it in the crockpot and pour a can of Coke over it (it must be regular Coke, not diet and not faux Coke.) Turn the crockpot on low for 8 hours or high for 3. Delicious!

Great breakfast recipes you can make ahead!

Every summer we go to our neighbors cabin and I’m responsible for breakfast. But rather than risk forgetting some ingredient, I choose recipes I can make ahead of time and just take along ready to bake. Here are two that I love. One is an overnight french toast and the other a cheesy egg bake. And to avoid a spill, I mix the liquid ingredients and put them into an airtight container.
