Yummioso! Recipe

I threw this together in the crockpot last week and it was really yummy! I don't know what to call it, maybe you have some ideas!

5 chicken breasts
1 can diced tomatoes
1 can corn
1 can kidney or black beans
1 cup salsa
taco seasoning
1 cup water

Cook on low until chicken is completely cooked (mine cooks really hot even on low so it only takes about 2-3 hours). Shred chicken. We spooned it over tortilla chips and ate like a soup but I think it would also be really yummy in a flour tortilla topped with cheese and sour cream!

Bacon and Cheese Chicken

If you haven't checked out the crockpot blog, do it now! Yesterday I made the bacon and cheese chicken and it deserves a YUMMIOSO! My picky kids ate it with nary a complaint. I had cold leftovers on my salad today and it was still so good. For mine, I actually used the rest of the chicken tenders in the bag (6) plus 3 frozen chicken breasts which is more chicken than the recipe calls for. I used turkey bacon and Yoshida's sauce. I cooked it on low for about 6 1/2 hours (my crockpot cooks really hot even on low). It made 6 servings. Again, it was so good! Try it and tell me what you think.

OXYMORON

Last night at 11:30 watching The Biggest Loser while licking clean the inner workings of the chocolate fountain that we had used for Young Women.

I have to share this yummioso recipe. I found it on the web somewhere and thought it sounded good so made it...twice. Some day I will become a real blogger and actually take pictures of yummy food I make but until then, just use your imagination to picture this savory meal.

Pork/Apple Kebabs
1/2 cup apricot jam
2tablespoons cider vinegar
1 tablespoon tomato paste
2 tablespoon olive oil (plus more for grilling)
Salt and pepper
1 1/2 pounds pork tenderloin halved lengthwise and cut into cubes
1 medium red onion cut into wedges
1 Granny Smith apple cut into wedges
1. Heat grill to medium high. Make the sauce: combine jam, vinegar, tomato paste and 1 tablespoon of oil. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
2. Assemble skewers alternation pork cubes with onion wedges and apple wedges on each skewer. Roll skewers in remaining oil and season with salt and pepper.
3. Place skewers on grill turning occasionally and basting with sauce until pork is no longer pink and the kebab is nicely glazed.

Seriously, so yummy. The onions turn so sweet and good and the apples are tangy. Don't get me started on the glaze...just trust me, you need to try this recipe!
