Country Bob’s Slow Cooker Monday

Mom on the Run is staying active. I continued my quest to work out daily (no matter how small of a work out that it is) because I need to get back on track with my food and fitness goals. Taking an idea from Erica over at Itzy’s Kitchen, here is a shot of my heart rate monitor after my workout. I was trying to take a picture and they kept coming out cruddy. I did burn 266 cal/45% fat.

I decided to start back with the Couch to 5K running plan. I have always found success with running using this regime because it gets me motivated to work out.  Each session takes about 20 or 30 minutes, three times a week and includes both running and walking. My workout calendar until Christmas looks like this:

Monday: Couch to 5K

Tuesday: 30 Day Shred

Wednesday: Couch to 5K and Yoga

Thursday: Zumba

Friday: Couch to 5k

Saturday: Zumba

Sunday: Yoga or Spinning

I figured that if I wrote it down, I would stick with it Keep me honest blog friends.

For dinner tonight I decided to use a new slow cooker recipe that I found in my new The Original Country Bob’s Cookbook.

The most generous people over at Country Bob’s sent this cookbook a few weeks ago. My family loves the Country Bob’s All Purpose Sauce.

It is great on burgers, chicken, steak, fish, and now this slow cooker dish. Everything in this cookbook looks amazing. I was looking for something quick and easy so I didn’t really have to cook when I got home.

Slow-Cooker Orange Honey Chicken

Pg:73

Ingredients:
6 boneless skinless chicken breasts
½ cup of orange juice
½ cup of chicken broth
¼ cup of honey
1 T dry mustard
1 T teriyaki sauce
½ cup country bob’s all purpose sauce
1 cup broccoli florets
1 cup of cauliflower florets
1 cup of sliced carrots
Hot cooked rice

Place the chicken breasts in slow cooker.

Mix the orange juice, broth, honey, dry mustard, teriyaki sauce and country bob’s sauce in a bowl.

Pour over the chick and cover. Cook on low for 4 hours.

Place the vegetables on top of the chicken; do not stir.

Cook, covered, for 1 hour longer then serve with hot cooked rice.

This was a great quick fast recipe and it was pretty tasty. The broth was rich with flavor, most likely due to the Country Bob’s sauce. If you have not try Country Bob’s what are you waiting for, in fact if you have never tried this sauce Country Bob is kind enough to send you a coupon for free sample.
