He turned the big 2-8 this year. The bolognese sauce was a hit! I followed this recipe from the Pioneer Woman. It was delish! I definitely recommend it! We made a few adjustments (no carrots, added a stalk of celery to name a few). Bolognese on top of cheese tortellini - my mouth is watering right now! Wayne and I fell in love with this meal while visiting Little Italy in New York City. While I don't have pictures of the meal, sorry, I do have a couple from the day.
note: buffet server now has all the drawers! just need knobs..
Ok, so now for my favorite meal. Let me tell you, this is not hard what so ever. I think that's why I love it so much! I introduce you to.. Crockpot Salsa Shredded Chicken over brown rice.
So, how do you prepare this? I put 4 boneless chicken breasts into the crock pot, and poured a jar of hot salsa over it, about 16 ounces. I had one 12 oz jar, and added about 6 more oz. from an open jar in the fridge. Put the crock pot on low 8 hours. My crock pot always cooks things quicker than the time set, so 6 hours later, the chicken was super tender and falling apart - not to mention the house smelled amazing. I put a few cups of brown rice on the stove, and wa la! Dinner was served! Add a scoop of sour cream, it will not disappoint.
added some s&p and garlic powder, then let it cook away!
shred the pieces, it should just fall apart.
put it back in to mix with the remaining salsa.
serve over brown rice!
What I also love about this meal, is the leftovers, we made chimichangas with the rest of the chicken the next night. Oh, Mexican food how I love thee!
I hope you enjoy this as much as I do!
