Ridiculously Easy Salsa Chicken

I'll try to remember to take a picture when it's done tonight :)

So much to do today, but I want a healthy and tasty homemade dinner (the two can go together!) Everyone here LOVES Salsa Chicken and I love it because it is one of the easiest dishes you'll ever make.

You Will Need:

Salsa (no certain amount here, I probably use a regular sized jar for 6 frozen chicken breasts)
Chicken (I love that I can just throw the frozen stuff in the slow cooker because I'm feeling lazy and don't want to defrost it.)
Slow Cooker

Directions:

Throw it all in there and turn on high about 8 hours; All done.

Top it with some shredded cheese before serving. Serve with rice and beans (I'll have to post that easy recipe soon too, it's yummy.) or just rice... or beans, lol.

Everyone always raves about this dish and it is SO EASY!

Chocolate Chip Cookies

Another recipe I have searched long and hard for, the perfect chocolate chip cookie. Taking the best parts of different recipes, this result takes 1st place with the amazing flavor, slightly crunchy outer layer and deliciously gooey inside.

Ingredients:

2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup unsalted butter (melted)
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup white sugar
1 Tablespoon vanilla (Tablespoon, not teaspoon!)
1 egg
1 egg yolk
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 335 Degrees F. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper.

Sift flour, baking soda and salt, set aside.

Cream melted butter, brown sugar and white sugar until well blended. Beat in vanilla, egg (and extra yolk) until creamy.

Mix in dry ingredients until just blended. Stir in chocolate chips.

Drop cookie dough 1/4 cup at a time onto your baking sheets about 3 inches apart.

Bake for 23 minutes or until edges start to turn golden. Let cool on pan for 2 minutes before removing onto racks or paper towels.

Enjoy :)

Another Green Smoothie :)

I just made this and Mike said it's one of the best I've made so far. We make smoothies a lot so I figured I should remember what I put in this one to receive such a compliment :)

2 small mangoes, chopped
2 small bananas
1 apple
2 cups baby spinach
1 cup carrot juice
1 cup grape juice
*ice if none of your fruit is frozen, I used frozen apple slices.

Blend until smooth, add water to achieve desired consistency.
