HAWAIIN HAYSTACKS, so yummy- I almost forgot to post!

Honestly, I don't know what I was thinking, okay- I wasn't! Laying in bed, and I knew there was something I forgot to do! We ate dinner around 7 tonight, and it was delish! I made Hawaiin Haystacks, one of the kids' favorites! I always love this meal, it is one you can't mess up!


HAWAIIN HAYSTACKS
(Shirley J style)

Chicken:

3 Chicken Breasts
1 tsp. Olive Oil

*Cook on low for 4-5 hours in crockpot.

Chicken Cream Sauce:

1 1/2 cups of Shirley J Universal Sauce
6 cups Water
1 tsp. chicken bouillon (to taste)

*Whisk together, bring to a boil, and let simmer for 4 minutes.

*Shred or dice chicken with a fork, in your crockpot- leave the drippings in! Add Cream Sauce right into crock pot and stir.

Rice: follow directions! (I double my rice every time I make it, and then I take the left over rice and freeze it- makes crazy busy days into stress free nights- take out night before or morning of!)

Toppings:

Grated Cheese
Green Onions
Celery, sliced
Grape tomatoes
Pineapple
Coconut
Slivered or chopped Almonds
Chinese Noodles


There you have it! I try to pre-slice everything in the morning and put all ingredients in a veggie tray to keep them seperate- this works for me! I take my rice out to thaw out the morning of. All I have to do is throw the chicken in the crockpot, make the cream sauce, steam the rice in the freezer bag for a few minutes in the micro, whip out my tray, and we are GOOD to go! Pretty easy and a wonderful meal that we all enjoy!

Happy Cook'n!
