Just because it’s summer doesn’t mean you shouldn’t take advantage of your slow cooker. In fact, I like using my crockpot even more in the summer. I also love slow cooker BBQ recipes.
I can spend the beautiful sunny hot days outside enjoying myself and when it’s time for dinner, I don’t have to do anything but serve and eat. And you can always fire up the grill for your protein and make a side or dessert in the slow cooker.
What I’m saying is…. don’t stop using your slow cooker (crockpot) just because it’s summertime.
Here’s a delicious summertime recipe to make in your slow cooker that’s a taste of summer with bbq chicken and lightened up by making lettuce wraps with it.

Another thing I love about this recipe, besides it being delicious, is that it uses basically 3 ingredients. You really taste the flavor of the chicken. It’s also a cheap meal, so if you have a large family a good value meal is important. Definitely a lot of bang for your buck.
Here’s to enjoying delicious summer meals without spending a lot of time in the kitchen!
