I am super busy this time of year (as is everyone) with school activities and my business, and the shorter days seem to really make me feel the crunch. Plus, the chillier it gets, the more I want to snuggle on the couch with my pup and a trashy novel. My family still wants to eat, so it's time to pull out the crock pot!

The more elaborate the meal, the more prep I do at night. Today's recipe is seriously an open and dump but a family favorite:

3-4 chicken breasts

2 cans pinto Beans rinsed

1 jar of your favorite salsa

1 can of Rotel

1 can of corn drained.

Dump it all in and cook on low 8-10 hours. Shred chicken with two forks.

Serve with chopped onion, sour cream, cheese, chopped avocado and chips as toppings. SUPER easy and low carb friendly!

Do you Brown the beef before putting in the crock pot?

I did.....but if you buy really lean ground chuck you can simply dump it in there raw.

RAW GROUND BEEF IN THE CROCK POT???? I just threw up a little.

Raw.

It ain't purty, but it's how I roll.

93% lean.

Cooked for 8 hours on low.

Bluuuuuuuuuurp!! I trust you but I just couldn't do it. <3

Pork loin! Throw the meat in the crockpot, add two packages au jus mix, cover with Water and let it go! It's usually on high for five to six hours, then low until dinner time. Shreds easily and is great for tacos, bbq sandwiches, etc. usually lasts us (family of 5) a couple of days.

We also do frozen or fresh chicken the same way but with chicken stock instead of au jus. Sometimes my sister will add green chili to both but my niece won't eat if she can see them.
