Jerk Chicken - Our Kind of Wonderful

Jerk Chicken

Crock pot meals are our jam lately, and I’m absolutely loving it. We meal prep on the weekends, and having lunches and dinners made until mid week has been a huge help for it. It allows for K and I to still have some time to spend together to play games, watch a movie, or just anything other than working, chores, taking care of A and the dogs, and cooking.
