Every time I make a meal in the crockpot my love for that little appliance grows more and more.
Tonight’s meal was an easy favorite. Salsa chicken!
Ryan and I weren’t the only one excited about dinner tonight. From the moment we took the chicken out of the slow cooker, Sadie was glued to our side waiting for us to give her some scraps.
Since we’re total suckers, she got several bites. (Side note: When I went back to link to that “suckers” post, I had a total “Aww, my dog is so cute” moment. Check it out for some adorable Sadie pics!)
The pulled salsa chicken was served bowl-style with some steamed veggies, including broccoli, carrots, sugar snap peas and water chestnuts.
Nutritious and delicious. That’s how I roll!
Off to watch The Bachelor and then cuddle up with Mockingjay. Hopefully the book won’t be as intense as it was last night and I’ll sleep a little better…

Since I started eating meat I’ve been wanting to make this old stand by 🙂
Courtney @ The Granola Chronicles says
I don’t eat that much meat anymore, but when I did, I made Salsa Chicken all.the.time! Have a great night! 🙂
Imwaytoobusy says
I have got to try this! Your slow cooker meals always look fantastic!
Stephanie @ The Cookie Battle says
I love my crockpot! I make a chicken with salsa dish as well, only with beans and corn. Yum!
Katy (The Singing Runner) says
i may not eat meat anymore, but this still looks good! 😀
Maggie says
Aw! I love your dog!
carlee says
Love salsa on chicken! ANYTHING really! Lol I’m about to watch the bachelor here in a few hours myself have fun!
Hey Julie, I was wondering…have you ever read The Crucible?
peanutbutterfingers says

Do you think you could edit my essay? I know you write a lot. Honestly I think its pretty good already I already had 3 people edit it and then my dad. So I just need some extra filling to put in it. Maybe like one or two sentences but I have NO idea what to add. its only 3 pages double-spaced. Would you mind editing it between now and tomorrow?
It could really just use another pair of eyes by someone who understands it and could give a couple sentences of input and i thought of you since you write a lot!
Amanda- The Nutritionist Reviews says
Yum! That looks awesome. I just made shredded pork in my crockpot a couple days ago. It was so good.
Heather (Heather's dish) says
Mmmm, you should do green chile chicken! That sounds pretty amazing right now…
Michelle @ Give Me the Almond Butter says
I have never actually cooked with a crock pot before. I never had one in my kitchen growing up and I don’t have one in college, but I definitely want to experiment with one soon.
Amy says
Yummm! I havent made salsa chicken in so long, but it is amazing! I always throw in a can of black beans, even better! Mmmmm thanks for the reminder about a great EASY dish!!!!
Michelle (The Runner's Plate) says
Yes! Can’t wait for The Bachelor tonight! (I’m a few time zones behind you.)
Jessica says
I thought for sure you would have made something with peanut butter for dinner today!! Have you ever tossed your cooked chicken (think fajita strip size) with natty PB & hot sauce? It’s like a chicken satay!! Sounds crazy, but if you play with your mix before throwing it on the chicken, it can be very tasty!!
Amy at TheSceneFromMe says
I love making crockpot meals too! The salsa chicken looks good 🙂
I like making taco soup in mine!
Hmm, The Bachelor….wonder what Brad is up to tonight. I am watching it too. I’m a sucker for cheesy reality tv.
Averie (LoveVeggiesAndYoga) says
salsa, crockpots, very good stuff 🙂

Kaity says

Been reading for forever it seems, and never commented. Today’s the day!
Love using the crockpot and love the Hunger Games trilogy!
What are you two gonna read next? I have a few book reviews on my blog, but am planning on adding more.
peanutbutterfingers says
Yay for commenting! Not sure what we will read next. I’m open to suggestions!! We may take a break from reading together so I can read a girly book… 🙂

I love the crock pot! It is my favorite cooking appliance by far and we love salsa chicken here!
Tracy says
This just reminded me to use my crock pot! Looks delicious! I bet it would be good in tacos or on a taco salad.
Healthy Chocoholic says
Yum!!! That chicken looks sooo delicious! =D
Hope says
Salsa chicken is so good! I love cooking in the crockpot. It is definitely one of my favorite kitchen appliances. It makes cooking so easy after a long day of work. I love how tender it makes chicken, or any kind of meat. 🙂
Claire says
Salsa chicken has become one of my new favorites. I try and mix it up by using different kinds of salsa. I just made some with a chipotle peach salsa and it was a delicious twist!
Sara @ The Bucket List says
I’m such a sucker when it comes to feeding my pup. All he has to do is look at me with his big puppy eyes and I’m putting in his paws 🙂
