Ryan and I had a fiesta for dos tonight and enjoyed crock pot chicken tacos. Another easy-peasy recipe that only requires two ingredients (not counting water):
- One pound ground chicken
- One packet taco seasoning
Directions:
Place the chicken in the crock pot and top with seasoning packet and 2/3 cup of water. Stir and fork through the chicken so it’s not sitting in the pot in one big clump.
Let it cook on low for six to eight hours. The chicken will form into one big chicken patty, but that’s okay! Just use a fork to mash it up.
We enjoyed our chicken in tacos with lettuce, tomato, and salsa. I prefer hard shells while Ryan likes his soft.
Maybe Ryan likes the tortilla-style tacos because he’s such a softie. Okay, that’s a lie. The man does not cry. Ever.
As Monica from Friends would say, he’s like Chandler and has no soul. 😉
As I type this, I realize this is a reflection on my lack-of-soul as well, seeing as how we’re getting married and are supposed to be soul mates. Ah well. I love ya, Baby! 🙂
After I’m done posting for the night we’re off to cuddle with Miss Sadie-dog and not-cry together.
Sadie does enough crying and whining for the both of us. I remember a magnet I used to see on the fridge of my friend’s parents when I was growing up. It read: “Would you like some cheese with that whine?” This would suit Sadie perfectly.
Are you a crier? Is your significant other a crier?
Key Lime Cupcake
Before I sign off for the night I wanted to leave you with a delicious picture of tonight’s dessert.
I bought this cupcake from Sweet!, a cute cupcake and frozen yogurt shop, as a surprise treat for Ryan since I know it’s his favorite flavor.
The icing is creamy and even has specs of vanilla bean in it! Wow-zaa! The cupcake itself has a creamy key lime filling. At the bottom of the cupcake is a sugary graham cracker “crust.” Oh-so-good!
G’night BlogWorld! See ya in the mornin’! 🙂

I cry every now and then…
Funny thing about my husband Andrew, he never really cries, but he cried during our entire wedding ceremony and then started back up during our first dance at the reception and again when he danced with his mom!! It was super sweet!! 🙂
Those chicken tacos look like my kind of meal – easy peasy! And what a cute cupcake!! How “sweet” of you to pick that up for your boy!! 🙂

I think I pretty much need to buy a crockpot. There are so many things you can make that I never knew about!
And, uh, I cry at everything. Movie previews especially.
Ryah says
Could you use this same recipe, but just use whole chicken breasts to make shredded chicken tacos?
peanutbutterfingers says
yes, absolutely!
