Salsa Chicken

I was in need of a new recipe so I spent some time searching on my favorite websites.  I came across this one from HeandSheEatClean.com and figured I'd give it a try!  I LOVE crock pot meals, especially ones that don't have a lot of ingredients!  I have to say, it made my kitchen smell fantastic all day long and was absolutely delicious! 

Ingredients:

1-2 lbs of boneless, skinless chicken breasts

4 large diced tomatoes

1.5 cups (roughly) of your favorite salsa.  (I actually pre-made Homemade Salsa to keep it a bit cleaner)

2 tbsp garlic powder

2 tbsp red pepper flakes

1 tbsp black pepper

1 tsp cayenne pepper (if you want to make it spicy)

Directions:

1. Place the chicken in a crock pop, as well as all of the other remaining ingredients.

2. Cover and cook on low for 7 hours.

3. After 7 hours, shred the chicken in the crock pot and allow it to cool down before serving.  

 **Before serving, I added some diced onions, red and green bell peppers, and a little lime to enhance the flavor! 

This meal makes for GREAT leftovers!  You can serve it with brown rice (which is what I did), wrap it up in a whole wheat tortilla, serve in salad, or even eat it as a lettuce wrap!
