I’m so excited to share this recipe with you, because I was starting to think I’d exhausted every slow cooker recipe there is on the planet!  (Can you tell I like my slow cooker?)

 

 

But yesterday while rummaging through my pantry hoping to figure out how to get dinner on the table without too much effort in the kitchen, I decided to do a quick ingredient search on All Recipes to see if they had any ideas.  (While I love Pinterest for recipes, there’s just something about reading through the All Recipes reviews, so I keep going back!)

 

I found this Slow Cooker Chipotle Chicken and wasn’t sure if it would work or not, but since I had all the ingredients except the Chipotle Peppers, I decided it was worth a try. It ended up being so good (much better than I expected it to be) plus it kept my oven off on a way-too-hot-in-the-kitchen kind of day!  Here’s how to get dinner on the table tonight in your home . . .

Here are the best sales I see to watch for this week (as of 7/17/13):

  • Perdue Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast BOGO at Kroger (makes it $2.49/lb.)
This was an “eating from the pantry” kind of meal for us~ the only thing I had to buy was $2.19 in peppers (found those at Kroger) and dinner was done. Leave a comment if you find any deals on the other items in the meal, and let me know what you think if you try it!
