This is Mexican comfort food right here! Cinco de Mayo is coming up and this stew would be a perfect part of your Mexican fiesta. Along with some yummy mexican desserts, of course. It comes from Gooseberry Patch’s 101 Super Easy Slow Cooker Recipes and I absolutely love this cookbook.
Every recipe has a photo to go along with it, which I love. I have to see what it looks like because we eat with our eyes first, right? It’s broken into cooking times: 1-6 hours, 6-8 hours, 8-10 hours and then there’s Make-Ahead Meals. I had a hard time choosing what to make because every recipe sounds great. There’s even desserts! I have a copy to giveaway after the recipe. Just use the Rafflecopter form below to enter.

One of my favorite slow cooker recipes is just chicken and a jar of salsa. It's super easy and flavorful and the chicken can be used in multiple ways.
