I can cook too! (At least I think so)

While I am preparing to make homemade dishwasher "tabs" and sew my heart out today, I am already dreading having to stop to make dinner. Soooo, I start running through what I have in my kitchen in my head.

I know I want to throw it in the Crockpot and forget about it until it is time to eat. So I have chicken...what can I make with chicken? (more like what can you NOT make with chicken, hehe)

I go in to the kitchen get out the chicken I have previously frozen from Zaycon Foods (if you have never checked into this you REALLY should!). Then I just started pulling things out that looked good to me. So what did I end up with? This:

• 1 LARGE chicken breast
• 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
• 1 can diced tomatoes
• 2 Tbsp diced green chiles (I didn't have RoTel in the pantry)
• 1 can corn
• 1/2 packet of (low sodium) taco seasoning
• 1/2 packet dry ranch dressing mix

Black beans, tomatoes, corn, and green chiles go in crockpot.

Throw (okay don't throw-set) your chicken breast on top, sprinkle taco seasoning and ranch powder over top. Put the lid on and you have started dinner (at 10 am). ;)

I turned mine on high for 2 hours because my chicken breast is HUGE and frozen, then I will turn it down to low for an additional 6-8 hours (just depends on when I feel like stopping to eat).

We will put it in some flour tortillas with shredded lettuce, tomato, and avocado thanks to my Bountiful Basket yesterday!

I am hungry NOW, so I guess it is lunch time.


Edited to add:

I pulled the chicken out of the crockpot and shredded it, drained all the juices and mixed it all together (mainly because my son will eat things if they are mixed but if they are separate he will say "I don't want any of THAT")

Bless his heart, he took one look at it and said "This is going to be very dry."

We assembled our tacos and ate dinner. When he was all done he said "That was good." It may not seem like a huge deal to most, but he NEVER says that. So for me it was a HUGE success!

Sorry, I was so anxious to eat this that I forgot to take a pic before I loaded it up with goodies!

YUM!
