MONDAY- macaroni and cheese(homemade), green beans

TUESDAY- *crock pot roast sticky chicken (recipe below), peas and rice

WEDNESDAY- grilled cheese, tomato soup, fruit

THURSDAY- eating out

FRIDAY- pork chops, garlic potatos, california blend veggies

SATURDAY- spaghetti, tossed salad

SUNDAY- on your own! What is on your menu plan this week?

Crock pot Roast Sticky Chicken-*I don't remember where I got this recipe or I'd gladly give credit

4 tsp salt

2 tsp paprika

1 tsp cayenne pepper

1 tsp onion powder

1 tsp thyme

1 Tsp white pepper

1/2 tsp garlic powder

1/2 tsp black pepper

1 large roasting chicken

1 cup chopped onion

In a small bowl, thoroughly combine all the spices. Remove giblets from the chicken, clean the cavity well and pat dry with paper towels. Rub the spice mixture into the chicken, both inside and out, making sure it is evenly distributed and down deep into the skin, Place in a resealable plastic bag, seal, and refrigerate overnight.

When ready to cook chicken, put the onions into the cavity, put the bird into the crock pot and do not add any liquid. As the cooking process goes on it will produce it's own juices. Cook on low 8-10 hours and it will be falling off the bone!
