Cafe Rio Chicken
I recently ate at Costa Vida for the first time and fell in love with their Sweet Pork Salad. Then my sister-in-law told me about Cafe Rio and how good their food is. I came across this recipe from my BBF (Best Blogger Friend-yes it's such a thing, or it is now!) Holly's blog and it's so good! We ate it taco style, but you could do it as a salad as well. The most wonderful part is that it's cooked in a slow cooker. Those recipes always make me happy.Printable VersionIngredients2 lbs chicken … [Read more...]

Get Yo’ Man Chicken!
I saw this on an episode of Down Home With the Neeley's and knew I had to make it. It is called "Get Yo' Man Chicken" because when you make this for a man, he will be yours. It is really good. I love it over the rice. It just tastes awesome. You can use white or brown rice or a combo of both, like I do. I can't totally handle the texture of straight brown rice yet, but I'm working on it. Thankfully my husband and kids like the combo, too. It makes for easier cooking.Get Yo' Man Chicken2 … [Read more...]
