Crock pot roasted chicken is pretty much a weekly staple at our household. Season the chicken and place it in the crock pot on low for 8 hours as you leave for work. When you get back your chicken is ready for dinner. Pair it with a salad, veggie, and starch and you have a well balanced meal.
The only thing about cooking a whole chicken for two people is there is a lot of chicken left over. We even take the chicken for lunch the next day and still have plenty of leftovers. I have made plenty of different kinds of soup with the leftover chicken but this week I wanted to try something new. So I turned to my trusty stand by www.cookinglight.com.
This was pretty good. I followed the recipe exactly. I wouldn't really recommend any changes except maybe add a little more enchilada sauce. We ate this with a side salad and a quarter of an avocado. It was very filling and definitely hit the spot after our swim workout.
We had to take a day off from running today. We were scheduled to run 5 but our legs are dead tired from lifting legs with our trainer on Tuesday and running a combined 14 miles on Tuesday and Wednesday. Swimming is such a good workout but I definitely am an inefficient swimmer. I expend way too much energy turning my head to take a breath which makes me out of breath easily. After the swim we sat in the hot tub for a little bit to soak our muscles. Hopefully our legs will be ready to rock for our next long run, 14 miles - gotta love a cut back week. weeknight
