Why I Love This Recipe

Pre-made crockpot recipe.

First I found five crock pot recipes (most of them have overlapping ingredients which made for easy shopping and chopping). Then I doubled/tripled/quadrupled the recipes (to make three coconut curries, four barbeque chickens, two orange chickens, two hot and spicy peanut chickens, and three man-pleasing chickens), made myself a massive shopping list, and then chopped… and chopped… and chopped. Lastly, I separated everything into fourteen freezer bags, wrote the directions on the bag and froze everything. Easy enough, right?

1. These bags serve my family of four. Adjust accordingly.

2. Here is the shopping list for ALL FIVE recipes:

4.5 lbs. cubed boneless, skinless chicken breast

5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs
