Slow Cooker Chicken Burrito Bowls

Need a quick, easy and delicious meal? This is it! It cooks in the slow cooker and makes enough for leftovers. This would be great to take for lunch and you could even meal prep with this and portion out in individual containers. This stuff is so good! Let's get started!

Slow Cooker Burrito Bowls

Ingredients:
3 pounds of boneless, skinless chicken breasts (I sometimes use tenders as well)
1 can of black bean (drained and rinsed)
1 can of Rotel
1.5 cups of corn (can use frozen, fresh off the cob or canned)
1 cup of salsa
1 tbsp of jarred jalapenos, diced (you can use more or even leave them out)
6 cloves of garlic, minced
1.5 onions, diced
1 tbsp of chili powder
2 teaspoons of cumin
salt and pepper to taste

Add ingredients to your slow cooker (I use a 6 quart oval for this). Cook on low for 7-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours.

Serving ideas: Burrito Bowls (over rice or lettuce), Nachos, tacos, etc. This stuff is so good and we make it often. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do! You can add some fresh cilantro and lime for another great addition.

Notes: We watch our sodium so I use canned beans that are lower in sodium and recently found Rotel that is no salt added. I add no salt to this recipe and it is delicious without it. Of course, I used prepared salsa which has salt in it, but I always read labels to find ones that aren't as salty.

Salt-Free Ranch Dressing Mix

I don't know about you but I really enjoy ranch dressing. The stuff in the bottle is okay, but if you look at the ingredients it contains some not so good stuff like MSG and added sugar. It also has a lot of added sodium. I'm trying to watch my sodium so I decided to make a salt-free ranch mix, then I can control the salt whenever I make the dressing or add it to a recipe. It's super easy to make your own ranch mix. If you make a batch of this up, you can have it already on hand to make ranch dressing or add it into other recipes. Let's get started! Salt-free Ranch Dressing Mix Ingredients: 4 Tbsp of dried parsley 4 tsp of dried dill 4 tsp of onion powder 4 tsp of minced dried onion 2 tsp of garlic powder 1 tsp of ground black pepper Combine the spices in a bowl and from here you can process them for a bit in a mini food processor to mix well and make some of the parsley smaller or you can use a coffee grinder as a spice grinder. Then place in a contai

A Civil War Recipe..... Oatmeal Pie

Princess came home with an assignment to to a Civil War project. There were several options but she and I always gravitate to the ones that involve cooking. So we chose to make a recipe from the Civil War time to share with her class. Can I just say how grateful I am for the internet when it comes to these school projects? We looked online and found many different recipes. I wanted one that used ingredients I already had on hand and hopefully one that would be a bit tasty. I finally found a forum where people were sharing Civil War recipes and someone had shared one for Oatmeal Pie from Charleston, South Carolina. Apparently, during the Civil War, pecans were in short supply. So oatmeal was subbed for pecans to make a sort of mock pecan pie. This recipe is very tasty and really easy. It does remind me of a pecan pie, but at the same time a little reminiscent of an apple crisp because of the oatmeal and the cinnamon. Very delicious! I'm hoping her class really enjoys it.
