Crockpot Parmesan Chicken

I'm in love with my crockpot. Whoever invented it should be like...nominated for something spectacular. It's so easy for busy families to just put a meal into the pot and walk away and not have to worry about it until you put it on a plate and serve. Most recipes (like this one) are really easy with only a few ingredients to throw together. My favorite part though...the smell it gives off throughout the day. I wish you could somehow let people smell what your house smells like while it's cooking!

Crockpot Parmesan Chicken

Ingredients:

-2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut in half

- 1/2 cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs

-1/4 cup Parmesan cheese (shredded)

- 1/4 t black pepper

- 1/4 t salt

- 1 T olive oil

- 1 egg, beaten

- shredded mozzarella cheese

- 1 jar of your favorite (store bought or homemade) marinara sauce

Spread the 1 T of olive oil into the bottom of your crockpot. Beat the egg with a fork in a separate bowl. Mix the bread crumbs, pepper, salt and Parmesan cheese in a separate dish. Dip the chicken into the egg, then into the bread crumb mix, coating both sides. Place the chicken in the crockpot and sprinkle the mozzarella on top, with however much cheese you like. Cover the chicken with your jar of marinara sauce.

Cook on low for 6 hours (or high 3).

*I served this chicken over some pasta, and sprinkled more Parmesan on top. Yum :)

**Sorry no picture, I ate it all before I could take one

Easiest Quinoa "Salad"

Who doesn't like a 5-ingredient dinner/snack? Granted, there could be a little more prep time depending on what you have laying around but for a mom that's always on the go with Baseball Practice and who knows what else...this is perfect. I cooked my Quinoa in my rice cooker, it was super easy to just dump it in there and walk away. If you don't have a rice cooker, just follow the instructions on the back of the bag. You can find Quinoa in the rice section of the grocery store usually, if not there check by the Organics. Side note : Whether I cook my Quinoa in a pot or in my rice cooker, I always cook it in Chicken Broth, adds more flavor! You'll notice the difference between water and Chicken Broth, I promise! If you have some cooked chicken already, perfect. If not, I usually get a rotisserie chicken and just shred it. Luckily, Matthew's mom has been buying me whole chickens and cooking them in the crockpot for me (because she's awesome) and then sending
