Can someone please press the pause button? This thing we call life is going way to fast and I don’t know how to slow it down. I feel like the kids just got out of school and now we’re starting in full swing of school. I’m not sure about you guys, but I know that getting back on routine kicks my butt and it takes me a good couple of weeks. When this time of year comes around I know that I need some quick, easy dinner recipes.

That’s where my slow cooker comes in. I can honestly tell you that I’m not a huge I wasn’t a huge fan of my slow cooker. I think the meals I used to make back in the day were bland boring recipes because I never liked how anything tastes. Well…I can’t day that any more.

This particular Spanish Chicken Recipe is by far one of my all time favorites and it’s perfect for those busy nights. Or nights you just don’t want to cook because your exhausted from doing a million things that day. 😉

You throw most of the ingredients into your slow cooker, set it on low for 6-8 hours and walk a way. Once you get ready to eat, throw in the white beans, corn and cilantro. Now I serve this over white rice, but you could do anything you wanted. You could pair it with mashed potatoes, veggies or with some tortillas. You really can’t go wrong either way.
