BBQ Chicken Sandwiches

I make bbq chicken sandwiches a lot (just cook chicken in the crockpot with bbq sauce on top). But they've always just been "just ok" to me. I saw this recipe and it sounded SO GOOD. I made it yesterday and it did not disappoint. The red onion and cilantro on top really made it so yummy (I know some might disagree). It would probably be good with any BBQ sauce, but I did use the Trader Joe's brand as she suggests (yay for no high fructose corn syrup like Sweet Baby Ray's and most other bbq sauces). I can't wait to eat the leftovers!

HERE is the recipe. This is Amber (Jensen) Doxey's cooking blog.

Peanut Butter Puffs

I tried this new recipe out today and they are tasty, easy, and don't require using the oven!

1/4 C honey
2 packed tablespoons brown sugar
1/4 C creamy peanut butter
1 3/4 C rice crispy cereal (or rice chex to make it gluten free!)

In a sauce pan over medium heat, combine honey and brown sugar. Stir until the brown sugar is dissolved and mixture starts to boil. Remove from heat. Stir in peanut butter until smooth. Stir in rice crispies. Let cool until not too hot to handle (about 5 minutes). Spoon heaping tablespoons onto a cookie sheet. With damp hands, form into balls. Refrigerate until set. For cute display, place balls in mini muffin cups.
