The first two recipes are really different uses of chicken and then there is the great salad to serve with either of them!
___
Slow cooker tortilla soup
1 lb. boneless, skinless chicken breasts
15 oz. can whole peeled tomatoes, mashed
10 oz. can enchilada sauce
4 oz. can chopped green chili peppers
4 cloves garlic, minced
2-1/2 C chicken broth
1 can black beans (drained and rinsed)
1 tsp. cumin
1 tsp. chili powder
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. black pepper
10 oz. frozen corn
1 tsp. dried cilantro (or 1 tbsp. fresh cilantro)
tortillas/tortilla chips
Put chicken, tomatoes, enchilada sauce, chili peppers, garlic, chicken broth, black beans, cumin, chili powder, salt, pepper, corn, and cilantro into your slow cooker. Place lid on top and cook for 6-8 hours on low, or 3-4 hours on high. Shred chicken and stir mixture. Serve with tortillas, chips, sour cream, etc. if desired.
___
Easy crockpot chicken
2 lbs. chicken tenderloin chunks
1 C pineapple juice
1/2 C brown sugar
1/3 C soy sauce

1/2 C extra virgin olive oil
1/3 C apple cider vinegar
1/4 C plain Greek yogurt

She said, “So, apparently replying to a marriage invitation, ‘I can’t be there, but maybe next time,’ isn’t the correct response!’”
If you would like to share a recipe with me, just send it to the J-T or email it to me.
