Salsa Chicken (version 1)

Salsa Chicken

I've been making this recipe for a long long time. But for some reason I always forget to put it up here. Sorry.

I recently shared this with a friend, she reminded me to add it to the blog.

This is a quick and simple crock pot recipe.





Ingredients
-4-6 chicken breast
-2 large bottles of salsa (your choice)
-cheese
-brown rice


Directions
put a thin layer of salsa at the bottom of the crock pot.

place the chicken in the crock pot, cover with the remaining salsa (until chicken is covered). I normally use 1 bottle of medium (yellow) Pace salsa and 1 bottle of mild (green)
 Pace.

 

Put on low for 6 hours or high for 3-4 hours. 

about 10-15 minutes before you want to eat, add in the cheese. Now there are many options for this part. 

The original recipe I got from an old friend said to use 1/2 a brick of velveeta. but B hates velveeta almost as much as i love it.

So I altered the recipe for standard cheese.

 

 (these are the large bricks)

You ad the cheese to the crock pot, put the lid back on untill everything is fully melted. 

You can also put the cheese on the side and each person can add the amount of cheese they want. 

I served it on top a bit of brown rice.

This is a bad picture, but you get the idea.

You can also shred the chicken and put it back int he crock pot. the chicken kind of shreds on its own anyways.

This is always a crowd pleasing recipe.
