My cute friend Jamie made this recipe for our Freezer Meal group last month and I have made it at least three times since then! It is so yummy and incredibly easy to throw together. And just like the Slow Cooker Bajio Chicken, it is so versatile! You can serve it over rice, in tortillas, with chips, or eat it like chili. We love it!
2 cans black beans, drained and rinsed
2 cans corn, drained
1 package taco seasoning
4-5 chicken breasts
1 cup salsa
3/4 cup water
Put beans, corn, taco seasoning, and water in crock pot and mix together until seasoning is dissolved. Place chicken breasts on top and spread salsa on chicken. Cook on high for 4 hours. Shred meat and serve however you want (see explanation above). Garnish with cheese, sour cream, avocado, lettuce, tomato, and hot sauce.
This is such an easy freezer meal to make! I just made it with 5 chicken breasts and ate half of it for dinner and froze the other half (in a gallon-sized freezer Ziploc bag) for another night. Make sure you let the food cool before freezing it. On the day that you are ready to eat it, let it thaw and then cook on low in your crock pot for 2-3 hours.
thanks for the recipe! I printed it off and plan to make it this week :)
ReplyDeleteJamie brought me this dinner when I was sick one day.....and my family loved it! I've since taken it to a few of my sisters when they needed a meal. It is easy and yummy!
ReplyDeleteWe made this the other day and ate it like taco soup with cheese and sour cream. It was a hit! This recipe will definitely go in our collection.
ReplyDeleteSo I am only cooking for two people. And I don't really like meat very much. Do you think if I just did one chicken breast it would be ok?
ReplyDeleteAnonymous- I definitely think that this would be just fine with one chicken breast! I think that it would still turn out great!
ReplyDeleteYum! Yum! I made this for dinner tonight and thought it was the "PERFECT" dinner. It exceeded all of my mom requirements...it was EASY to make, my kids LOVED it, it was pretty healthy, it was EASY to clean up (I used a slow-cooker bag) and it made enough for TWO more meals that will be waiting in the freezer!
ReplyDeleteThis is sooooo on our menu plan!!! Super yummy and easy! Thanks for the recipe my family loved it...I loved it even more because it was so incredibly easy to make! I used a turkey breast and the meat was super moist! YUMMO :)
ReplyDeleteCan you cook this on low for 8 hours instead?
ReplyDeleteYes! That would work perfectly! Thanks for the question!
DeleteSounds so good and incredibly easy. Making this tonight for dinner :)
