Fall Chicken - Fall Turkey


This recipe is wonderful for the crisp chilled air of fall. The colors are reminiscent of the changing trees, & the smell is oh so warm & cozy. The best part is, it's EASY EASY EASY!

5-6 Chicken Breasts (or turkey breast/roast)
2 jars apricot jam (or peach, plum, etc...)
1/2 bell pepper sliced
Pepper
Rice

Lay chicken or turkey in crock pot. Pour jam over top of meat & spread evenly to coat. Lay small slices of bell pepper over top of chicken. Sprinkle pepper over top.

Cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 4-5 hours.

Serve over cooked rice (Brown rice is my favorite!)

Great side dishes with this meal are:

*Mandarin Oranges
*Green Beans or Asparagus
*Whole Wheat Rolls

NOTE: I like the taste of peppers & onions, but I don't like to eat them because of the texture... So if you're like me, just let the peppers flavor this dish, then pull them off after it's finished cooking!
