Crockpot Salsa Chicken

I know this recipe doesn’t exactly sound good, but trust me, it is! My uber picky sister was in town recently and I needed something simple for dinner. I knew that she would like this chicken, and bonus, I could throw it in the crockpot and forget about it. I also love the versatility of [...]

40 Cloves of Garlic?!

This chicken came out well, not as good as I thought it would [...]
