I usually have some brown rice and quinoa on hand cooked in the fridge or freezer. Then I make this little number in the crock pot:
Ingredients
- 1½ lbs. chicken breasts or ground beef
- 1 (16 oz.) jar salsa
- 1 (15 oz.) can black beans, drained
- 1 bag frozen corn
- 1 Tbsp chili powder
- ½ Tbsp cumin
- ½ Tbsp minced garlic
- ½ tsp dried oregano
- ¼ tsp cayenne pepper
- ¼ tsp salt
- to taste cracked pepper
- Add everything to the slow cooker along with ¼ cup of water (for good measure). Give everything a good stir and make sure the chicken is covered in the mixture. If I am using ground beef I usually brown it up and then add to the crock pot.
- Cook on low for 8 hrs.
- After 8 hours of cooking, carefully remove the lid of the slow cooker. Stir with a fork to shred the chicken (it should be super tender and will shred easily). Build the taco bowls by placing rice on the bottom, then the taco chicken mix, cheese, avocado, lettuce, tomatoes, sour cream. To your liking. I also eat this just on salad some times.
