Tasty Tuesday Treat #27



 Despite my love for cooking, there are some nights when I would much rather "sport" a warm fleece blanket than a kitchen apron.  One such night was mid week last week when I was preparing to be snowed in (yet again)!  

Content on my couch, I knew that a lavish meal was not in the cards for that night.  Although most would dial their favorite takeout restaurant, I was determined to create an easy, healthy dinner that would pretty much "make itself."

After perusing Pinterest and flipping through Food Network Magazine, I found the closest thing to a no prep meal, Crock Pot Salsa Chicken!  Not only was this chicken easy to prepare, but it was also incredibly versatile.  On that particular lazy evening, I used the pulled poultry to stuff a sweet potato, but over the course of the next few days I was able to use the leftovers in a black bean salad, in a mexican frittata and also in a cheesy quesadilla! 

Needless to say, my apron has been able to take a much needed vacation ;)
