Do you ever have days when you don’t feel like cooking? Or have your kids been asking you for snack after snack after snack and have spent all day in the kitchen already? Or have you had a headache for days on end and can’t gather the strength to cook a meal because the headache is so draining? Or do you just need a meal to impress your family or your guests? Then, try this Slow Cooker Honey Mustard Chicken.
This Slow Cooker Honey Mustard Chicken is one of the easiest meals you will could probably ever throw into your slow cooker. It is also so flavorful! If you have 5 minutes to spare, then you can make this meal. I found this recipe on Eat at Home Cooks. It is a great site with easy recipes!
All you need is honey, Dijon mustard, salt, pepper and chicken. Every time I have made this, I just throw frozen chicken into the slow cooker and cook on high for about 3 hours or low for 6 hours. Serve it with veggies and/or rice or potatoes and you have a fabulous quick and easy meal!
- 3-4 four chicken breasts,
- ½ cup honey
- ¼ cup Dijon mustard
- salt and pepper to taste
- In a small bowl, combine the honey and Dijon mustard. Stir to combine. Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Place the chicken in the slow cooker. Pour the honey mixture over the chicken.
- Cook on low for 6 hours or high for 3 hours, adjusting the time as needed for fresh or frozen chicken.

Whenever we give our children the choice to eat out, they most often choose our local Mexican restaurant. Or Chick-fil-a (we have trained them well!). My kids love Mexican food. I don’t know if it’s the chips and dip or being able to sit outside in nice weather or just really fabulous food, they just love it. My husband and I love it too. And since we can’t eat out every time we get a craving for Mexican, I have come up with some pretty good, if not better alternatives to going out for Mexican. If my children turn up their noses at a Mexican inspired dish, I just tell them, it’s just like we get at La Caretta. It works every single time! I am often at a loss, though, as to what to serve as a side dish for Mexican meals. Mexican Rice only goes so far. And since we eat Mexican food sometimes several times a week here, I needed some more options. Enter, Esquites, or Mexican Street Corn Salad. It is just what I have been looking for! It a great, different side dish to accompany your Mexican meals in that it is not rice or beans. Those are great, but can get old. This Mexican Street Corn Salad is served warm (for those of you who don’t like cold salads) but is also great cold! It is full of flavor from the cilantro, lime and chili powder. This salad also has cojita cheese in it. If you have never had Cojita cheese, it is sold in a round disk and is a crumbly cheese (kind of like feta) with a mild, salty flavor. This Mexican Street Corn Salad is brought together with just a tiny bit of mayonnaise. Even if you are not a mayonnaise lover, give it a try, you really cannot taste it! So, the next time you need a side dish for your Mexican meal, try this Mexican Street Corn Salad. And just in case you are looking for a few dinner inspirations, here are a few dishes you could serve with this salad:
