Two Ingredients = Dinner Winner

December 29, 2010 by Julie 54 Comments

Put two chicken breasts in the crock pot and cover ‘em with salsa and what do you get?salsa chicken 026Salsa chicken!

Only two ingredients are needed for this oh-so-simple yet oh-so-tasty dish. That makes it a winner in my book. salsa chicken 021After placing the chicken in the crock pot and covering it in salsa, I let it cook on low all day while I was at work (about eight hours). I came home to an apartment that smelled fantastic and a dinner that cooked itself.

All I had to do was prep some vegetables, which I took right out of the freezer.salsa chicken 038When I first began incorporating more vegetables into my diet, the healthy vision pack of Green Giant frozen veggies was my absolute favorite way to get my veggies. It really lets the flavors of the vegetables shine, seasoning them only with a light rosemary butter sauce that doesn’t taste greasy in the least.

I try to keep a couple of packs of these veggies in the freezer for whenever I’m feeling particularly lazy.

I busted out one of the packs tonight and it served as a great complement to my chicken.salsa chicken 029salsa chicken 033An apple was also enjoyed on the side for some sweetness.  

I think I’ll keep up with the simple theme of this evening and tuck myself into bed with a book a little early again tonight.

I absolutely love reading but always seem to neglect settling down with a book. Perhaps a resolution to read more is in store for 2011?
