BBQ Chicken Salad

I remember bringing home my first baby. It's a pretty tough transition for everyone involved. Luckily I had the help of my mom who seemed to know just how to help and one of those ways was in the form of this AMAZING BBQ chicken salad. It was exactly what starving, postpartum me needed but I think anyone would find that it will hit the spot :) I found the recipe for the Crockpot BBQ Chicken via Pinterest and it is definitely a keeper :)

INGREDIENTS:
Crockpot BBQ Chicken:
2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup Honey BBQ sauce
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup Zesty Italian Dressing
1 T Worcestershire Sauce
Salt, to taste

Salad:
Lettuce
Tomatoes, Diced
1 Can of Dark, Red Kidney Beans
4-5 Hard-Boiled Eggs*
Shredded Cheese
Ranch Dressing


DIRECTIONS:
1) Season chicken breasts lightly with sea salt and place in crockpot.

2) In a mixing bowl, combine BBQ sauce, brown sugar, Italian dressing, and Worcestershire sauce then pour over chicken in crockpot and cook on high for 3-4 hours.

3) Once the cook-time is up you can serve it whole or shredded but if you decide to shred, you should let it cook in the sauce for 10-15 minutes more.

4) Make your salad. We like it with the fixings I mentioned but I guess there's really no wrong way to eat this chicken. It's great in a sandwich, wrap, or salad :)

*Did you know you can make hard-boiled eggs in the oven? Total game-changer for me because I like easy. You just put them in a muffin tin and bake for 30 minutes and 325 degrees. Then you put them in an ice bath for 10 minutes and then they're ready for you to peel and eat :)
