While at work, I couldn’t help thinking about mouthwatering buffalo chicken sandwiches, topped with fresh veggies and blue cheese. I hope my co-workers didn’t see me drooling … [Read more…]
This is absolutely one of my favorite slow cooker chicken recipes. You just gotta love a recipe that has a handful of ingredients, yet screams elegant and scrumptious at the same time.
