Crockpot Chicken Parm

When I made this meal on Wednesday I was not expecting that my mom would break her leg, end up in the hospital, and have to have surgery and therefore I did not get a plated picture. 

It was a very easy and yummy dish.

Anything in a crock pot gets my vote. 

Slow Cooker Liners are my favorite things since I HATE cleaning out the crock pot.

1. Put one tablespoon of olive oil in the bottom of your crock pot.

2. Take Italian bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese and mix together. I used a 1/2 cup of crumbs to 1/4 cup of cheese.

3. Crack an egg into a dish and whisk.

4. Dip chicken in egg and then cover with the crumb/cheese mixture and then put in crock pot.

5. Throw some mozzarella cheese on top.

6. Pour marinara sauce on top.

7. Cook on low for 6 hours.

8. Serve on top of spaghetti noodles.

The original recipe came from here at Not So Perfect Mom.

A Mother's Choice

Jack is in a fussy phase. If he is awake he is usually fussing. Not always crying but constantly showing some type of unhappiness. I've taken him to the doctor and he switched his milk but he is still (if not more) fussy. We are going back on Tuesday. I'm telling his doctor he has to fix him or take him home with him. Those are the only 2 options available at this time. After hours upon hours of listening to this (I know you can hear it just from this picture)

I need a break. Eventually I will get this

What's a mom to do? 

You begin having an internal struggle.

Do you head straight to bed to finally get some much needed sleep?

Do you give that neglected husband some attention?

Do you spend some time to yourself?

You have to take a quick inventory (don't waste more than a minute thinking about it) and go for it.

My decision tonight at 2 am (yes, the time I was finally able to get Jack to sleep) was some chocolate ice cream while I watched Dr. Phil, a few minutes of blogging, and then try to sleep without giving too much thought to the fact that in 3 hours (if I'm lucky) I will have to get up and do it all over again. 

Oh to be a Mommy!

Now the thought of pinching my snoring husband sounds like a fab idea.
