This blog was founded by two sisters, Jessica and Tarah. We both have learned how to cook from our mother and we enjoy creating new meals to try. We thought starting a blog would be the best way to encourage us to continue trying to recipes and keep track of what we have done. We both have full time jobs and active social lives so we thought we would like to focus mainly on the slow cooker!! Thanks for checking out our blog.

Pork Tacos
Sorry for such a delay in our postings. I guess we have been enjoying this Summer heat wave a little too much! lol The other day I found a Pork Shoulder in my freezer and thought it would be great for some Pork Tacos. This recipe was extremely easy to make and it was delicious too! :)
Ingredients:
1 lb Pork Shoulder
2 tablespoons Taco Seasoning
Water
First I rubbed a tablespoon of taco seasoning on both sides of the Pork Shoulder.
The meat was still frozen so I did this the night before and let it thaw in the fridge until morning. Then I added enough water to cover the meat completely.
I let it cook for nine hours on low.
This was the perfect meal that day. It was over 90 degrees outside and I was able to make dinner without feeling like I was heating up the whole kitchen. Next I took the meat out, threw away the fat and shredded it on a plate. It fell apart with hardly any effort.
After the meat was ready I heated up some tortillas and added the meat, cheese and lettuce to them. I really liked it!

Shredded Taco Chicken
This one is a lot like the Garlic Chicken. I made it because I wanted to switch up my salads for the week. I also received a chili dip mix at a Tastefully Simple party and I thought it would work better spread out on two pounds of chicken because it was soooo spicy.
Ingredients:
2 lbs Boneless Skinless Chicken
1 packet Taco Seasoning (I used the Dip Packet)
1/2 cup Water
I forgot to take the picture of the ingredients but it was pretty basic.
Place the chicken in the bottom of the slow cooker. Mix the water and the Taco Seasoning together and pour it over top the chicken.
I set it on low for 8 hours and then warm for 2 more hours.
Take a fork and shred the chicken. It was really moist and came apart really easily.
For dinner I put the chicken on top of Tortilla chips and cheese and then I covered it with lettuce. It was so good!! Then I had a Crystal Light Margarita with it. :)
I'm having the rest of it for lunch this week. I'm using it on a salad with black beans, corn and cheese.
