1 large onion, finely chopped
6 oz can tomato paste
28 oz can tomato purée
1 T Worcestershire sauce
1 T cider vinegar
1 T honey
1½ T molasses
1 to 2 tsp chili powder, or to taste
½ tsp salt, or to taste
¼ tsp black pepper, or to taste
2 medium carrots (about 1 C), grated, or finely chopped
1 green pepper, diced
1 yellow or orange pepper, diced
⅓ C bulgur or barley

In a large skillet, sauté the meat for about 3 minutes. Add onion and continue cooking until meat is browned. While meat is cooking, place all other ingredients in crock pot. Add meat and stir. Cover pot and cook on high for 3 to 4 hours, or on low for 6 to 7 hours. Adjust seasoning to your own taste. If too thick, add ½ cup water at a time.

Crock Pot BBQ Chicken

1 onion, sliced
18 oz BBQ sauce of your choice
Place chicken in the bottom of the crock pot. Cover with onion slices and sauce. Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours, or until tender.
Hint: This easy and delicious recipe is very healthy, especially if you use all chicken breasts and remove the skin before cooking. The gravy is wonderful over rice or pasta.

Kid's cooking birthday party
"The girls had a blast! You were so organized and under control my husband and I were amazed. I had 1 parent call and said her daughter had such a great time and couldn't wait to make the meal for her family. We had never done a party like this and it was a great experience. The personal touches using Haley's favorite colors and personalizing the recipes with her hobbies gave it that little extra and Haley really felt special."
