Crock Pot BBQ Chicken

This is one of my husbands favorite meals, I'm surprised I haven't posted it sooner. 

2-4 boneless, skinless, chicken breasts
1 bottle of your choice BBQ sauce (I love Sweet Baby Raye's. Tonight I used the Sweet Onion flavor)

--Usually I just put the chicken and half the bottle of BBQ sauce in the crock pot, and let it cook for 6-8 hours on low.  After reading the grocery budget guide (posted below) I will no longer be doing that.  It's a better idea to cook the chicken (probably just with some water in the bottom) and add the BBQ sauce as you serve up the chicken so if you have left over chicken you can put in the fridge and use it in another recipe later in the week.

This is a really simple and quick to throw together "go to" recipe for me!  Tonight I served it with some left over funeral potatoes, green beans and corn!

Family Guide To Groceries on a Budget

I found this guide on pinterest and thought I'd give it a shot.  It wasn't quite what I was expecting, but it did have some good tips and some good recipes for budget friendly meals, spices, snacks, baked goods, etc.. It was worth my $3.49 to download on my Kindle and took me about 20 minutes to read the whole thing.  I will be incorporating some of the tips and trying some of the recipes to see if I can at least downsize my grocery budget from about $75-$100 a week to anything smaller!  This guide says on average the American family of 4 spends over $700 a month just on groceries!  I'm willing to try just about anything to save a few dollars and some of these tips will be quite helpful.
