Easy crockpot dinner, trial #1...

Thursday's are busy nights in the Ostergren household!  I pick up E at 4:30 from school & head straight to the gym...  she has cheer from 6-7:30, so we usually don't get home until 8ish.  Today I'm trying to be prepared so we don't eat either a) 9pm dinner or b) takeout food after practice! 

I didn't feel like going to the store, so I threw together stuff that I had on hand- you can add what you have!  Also, you can throw in the chicken while it's still frozen!

  • 1 package of Smart Chicken breasts (I think 1.5 lb's or so)
  • 1 can of black beans
  • 1 block of cream cheese (1/3 less fat)
  • 1 can of diced tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup of taco seasoning
  • 1 small bag of frozen corn
It's all in the crockpot, so I'm hoping it turns out scrumptious & my kiddo eats it :)  I'll serve it with tortillas or salad! 

**You can make it healthier by eliminating the cream cheese & adding more veggies!
**Not a paleo recipe!  You can make a few tweaks & make it paleo (no beans, corn, or cream cheese)

Do you have any easy crockpot dinner ideas?
Post them below!
