This Hawaiian Crockpot Chicken is a great way to keep the kitchen cool during this crazy heatwave. There are just a handful of simple ingredients, making this one a perfect recipe to have the kids help with.
I served this delicious chicken on our favorite rolls with a side of sweet corn for dinner. After dinner was over, I had a couple scoops of the chicken leftover. Not enough to make a whole sandwich, but way too much to just dump in the trash. Time for a Dinner Transformed!!!!
Serve that leftover scoop of Hawaiian Crockpot Chicken over a bed of rice and pack it up with a small side salad. Now those trash-bound leftovers have been transformed into a healthy, fun and filling lunch!

Can you freeze this recipe before you cook it? If so how long will it last in freezer?

I have a freezer meal ready to be put in the crockpot. Freezer bag for 3 months in standard freezer, longer in stand-alone freezers.
