Mexican Chicken

Like I said I love Mexican food. it is a family favorite - you can never go wrong.

Mexican Chicken

Put in the crockpot:

4-6 chicken breasts (frozen is ok)

2 jars of salsa - medium heat or it will be too bland

1 cup brown sugar

1 big squirt of Mustard

Cook all day then serve over rice or noodles with some juice. We put it on rice and everyone really liked it. I did add extra onion. You can shred the chicken, but it just falls apart anyway.

Mexican Lasagna

Mexican Lasagna

2 cups Pinto Beans -- cooked

1 container (15oz.) ricotta cheese

1 cup Cottage Cheese

1 can (4oz.) chopped green chilies

3/4 pound Monterey Jack Cheese -- Sliced

1 large Jar Spagetti Sauce

3/4 pound Lasagna Noodles


Spray the crockpot with non- cooking spray. Mix pinto beans with the spaghetti sauce. Mix together ricotta cheese, cottage cheese, a nd chilies. Cook lasagna noodles, drain and cut up. Spread a little sauce in the crockpot (enough to cover). Then place 1/2 of noodles, 1/2 of ricotta mixture, 1/2 of the sauce, and 1/2 of the cheese. Repeat layers
