Cafe Rio Shredded Chicken

 

I found this recipe on Pinterest.  Have I mentioned how much I LOVE Pinterest!!!! Apparently, Cafe Rio is a restaurant out West.  I've never been there.  I've never had their chicken, so I can't say if this is even close to their recipe.  All I can say is YUM-MEE!!  I served this chicken on flour tortillas with "Coleslaw Bobby Flay Style".  That may sound weird, but WOW!  It was so delicious together!  The hubby doesn't like coleslaw, so he just topped his with shredded cheddar cheese and sour cream.  He also suggested that I make it again, but the next time I should make grilled onions and mushrooms to go on it.  I think that sounds wonderful too!!!  You really can't do this wrong!

Crockpot Chicken Casserole

No doubt about it I love using my crockpot for sure!  This is a super easy and flexible recipe as well.  I thought I found it on pinterest but I couldn't seem to find the pin so I am guessing that I got it from Crockin Girls on Facebook.  This is super easy!

I didn't take this picture I found it online but had to put a picture with it!!

Ingredients:

4 boneless/skinless chicken breasts (On a side note....I always salt, pepper, and garlic powder my meat!)

1 can cream of mushroom soup (or can substitute cream of chicken if you don't like mushrooms)

1/4 cup milk

1/2 cup butter or margarine, melted

Tried this recipe last night for the first time. I would have added a little more meat, but other than that was wonderful, and we even have some leftovers for later! I also forgot to add remaining cheese on top...oh well!
