If you don't have a Crock-Pot, go buy one now. It will save you tons of time and is incredibly versatile. Today, I put a whole chicken in the pot added a bit of salt and let it cook for several hours. After it was finished I pulled it out and pulled all the meat off of the bones. This will provide plenty of meat for three separate entrees. I put all the bones and eight cups of water back into the pot. This cooked cook for another three hours. Afterwards, I strained the broth and put it into plastic containers. Now I have my own chicken stock.
For dinner tonight I made chicken tacos. Super easy and can be made to your preference. I used fresh white corn tortillas, heated in a nonstick pan. I added chicken topped with Monterey Jack cheese, lettuce, tomato, sour cream and salsa. Normally I would also add guacamole, but I didn't have a ripe avacado. So I had my protein, carbs and veggies all in one. This dinner took me all of about ten minutes. Not bad!
