I have a few recipes that are my "go to" recipes for when I can't think of what else to make or when we have activities that leave our schedule short of time. One of the family's favorite is Crockpot Salsa Chicken. I don't have exact measurements because it changes depending on what I have in the fridge and pantry. Here is about how it goes down:
Chicken Breasts (boneless, skinless) - 3 breasts feeds the 4 of us plus leaves us enough for a second meal
Salsa, 1/2 a jar
Canned or fresh corn, 1 can or 2-3 ears worth
Black beans, low sodium, rinsed and drained
1/2 a packet of fajita or taco mix
Place the chicken in the crockpot. Sprinkle seasoning package on top. Pour the salsa, corn and blackbeans on top and cover. Cook on high for 4-6 or low for 6-8. Shred the chicken in the crockpot using two forks or tongs. It should shred easily. Allow to soak in the juice for another 20-30 minutes.
Serve over rice. Or use to make burritos. Or use for quesadillas. It's good LOTS of ways!!
Add it to your menu and let me know which way you prefer it!
