Focaccia

Focaccia is soooo fun to make esp with kids. I love getting my kids involved in cooking. The younger you get them cooking, the more love they have for it and want to do it. I started my son off at 4 years old.. today he LOVES to cook. I did not do the same with my daughter and she is really not into cooking. So, I decided any children we have going forward, their little butts will be cooking. Anytime my nieces or nephews are over, we cook together (bread, pizza, biscuits, whatever).  You Will Need: 4 Cups Bread Flour (King Arthur) 2 tsp Salt 1 tsp Sugar (honey or agava)  1.5 tsp Yeast 1 tbsp Oil (olive or avocado) 1 3/4 Cups Warm Water  Bake at 445 degrees 10-12 minutes

Crockpot Chicken

There is nothing easier than throwing your whole chicken into a crockpot and letting it go all day long (first off it makes the house smell super amazing, and on cold days it heats the house up nicely) and not having to do much, expect flip it half way through. This is simply the best chicken I have ever made! Super moist, and flavorful. Stage 5 chicken I bought at whole foods market, it is pasture raised, no hormones and is just the best choice to buy when feeding your family, but if you cannot afford this (I paid $15.00 for almost 6 pounds, maybe more) then just an organic bird will do.
You Will Need:
1 Whole Chicken
1/2 Cup Homemade Ranch Seasoning
1 tbsp Chicken Base
2 Cups Water
Salt & Pepper
Crockpot
This is the only chicken base I trust
Place all ingredients in the crockpot, on high for 6-8 hours (or until chicken falls apart when you try to pick it up- mine cooked for 5)
I forgot to picture the chicken done! =[ Sorry! Just know it was amazing and tasty we had none left!
BTW (by the way) O-H!!! Go Bucks!
