5-13-14 - crockpot meal

So this week, i made my first crockpot meal in about three years! I got the recipe from pinterest (of course). The meal is called slow cooker taco chicken bowls and is from budget bytes. (can be found here!)
Anyway.. it was AMAZING. it was so easy and tasty! it also made so very much!
i used a reynolds crock pot bag so there was almost no clean up, which i LOVE.
We used basmatti rice, and added sour cream
i also didnt have frozen corn, so i just tossed in a whole can of canned corn. also, we didnt have quite enough chili powder so i just tossed in a bit of red pepper flakes. We used a mix of Aldi and Giant Eagle brand medium salsa (i am convinced they are made by the same people, they are IDENTICAL).

the chicken was positively falling apart it was so tender and yummy! We tried it plan, with nachos, and with fritos chips. It was amazing all three ways. i think it would be really great inside a burrito too, but didnt try that one.

i can not say enough good things about this meal and am now hooked on crock pots and cant wait to try something else!

Thats all for tonight, it was a busy day so this is just a quickie blog. Any way, until tomorrow, -t :)
