You. Guys. Are. Gonna. Love. This.
You know, I spend a lot of my down time perusing Pinterest doing serious research on new recipes to try, ways to convert them into our Real Food lifestyle, and then taking what I’ve learned and putting it into action in my kitchen. I’ve hopefully taken out any of the guess work, and made some simple and delicious recipes that you can, in turn, make without hesitation on if it will turn out or taste ok. I promise, they will all taste amazing. I won’t eat something unless it’s yummy. I’ve never been that girl who “suffers through rice cakes or cardboard energy bars” because they are “good for me”. If I’m going to eat healthy food, I want it to taste great! We shouldn’t have to sacrifice taste for healthy. Am I right?!
That’s one reason why I love this recipe. All real ingredients. All good for you. All easy (can you say, crock pot?). All delicious. This might be one of my favorites as of recently. Plus it got two thumbs up from J-Man (what?!) and my Mountain Man. The Nugget wouldn’t even look at it (he’s a work in progress), and Little Miss T just got over a tummy bug and she wanted nothing to do with anything, so there’s that. (Don’t worry, she’s 100% back to her normal happy, feisty, and sweet self today)
So grab your crock pot and let’s get started! I actually used some chicken that I had bought a few weeks ago and froze for a rainy day, (yes, I stuck the frozen chicken right in the crock pot!) and it turned out beautifully. So there’s no waiting around for your chicken to thaw. But, if you happen to have thawed out chicken, it will still be great, you’ll just want to shorten your cook time.

P.S. – If you make this recipe, snap a photo of it and share it on your preferred social media outlet with the hashtag #CrunchyMountainLife. I’d love to see it!!
