Hi Lee,
I´m from Germany and thinking about buying a crock pot so I can make all those delicious meals you create.
Can you recommend a crock pot? I´m a single house hold and usually cook for about 4 servings.
Thanks
Steph
Hey Steph! YOU WILL LOVE YOUR CROCK-POT! The great thing about crock-pot meals is that you can freeze most of them after cooking them. Here’s the crock-pot that I have…it’s THE BEST —> http://amzn.to/2bTvySn

Can I use frozen chicken tenders or do they need to be thawed out first?

Great idea! I can’t wait to try them. Crockpots are such a lifesaver on busy days!

Must. Make. These. Now.
I make tacos almost weekly in our household and am always looking for a different way to make them! These look amazing, I think I’ll cook the chicken with the salsa 🙂
TACOS FOR LIFE.
I love this meal! Sometimes I add corn, too. And when I’m not feeling tacos… I mean, sometimes nachos are a good idea 😉
YES NACHOS. All the wayyyyy.
These are so delicious! I have made them by adding the salsa in with the raw chicken and cooking for 4-5 hours. The chicken is so moist and so easy to shred!

So much yum! Great idea cooking the chicken in the salsa. I bet the flavor was AMAZING.
