Just Peachy Chipotle Tacos

Just Peachy Chipotle Tacos are a yummy alternative to the regular taco and a fun kid-friendly recipe. I am determined to create new recipes that are on the healthier side and at the same time yummy. The great part about this recipe is I made the chicken in the Crockpot. I made a quick and easy peachy salsa to top off the taco. It was the perfect mix of fruity and savory. I know you will want to try my Just Peachy Chipotle Tacos for supper at your house.

Love Peaches, then try this!  

My son traveled to Fredericksburg last weekend and he brought home some peaches from the Das Peach Haus. If you have never visited Fredericksburg, then now is the time to go. The peaches are amazing!

I remember when the boys were little, and I made peach jam. We had three peach trees in our backyard. My favorites are the peach cobblers, jam, and pies. My kids loved the jam.

Peaches have to be my ultimate favorite!

Fun Ideas

I like to make a big batch of my favorite Crunchy Homemade Granola and freeze it in baggies. It usually lasts for a couple of weeks without refrigeration. However, I prefer to keep it in the freezer and take out what I need. You can use it on granola, fruit, or just eat it right out of the bag.

One of my favorite breakfast foods is a yogurt parfait. I have tried so many different types of yogurts but I keep going back to the greek yogurt. Berries are my favorites to use in yogurt parfaits because they are loaded with antioxidant properties. You’re gonna want to try my crunchy homemade granola today!

Leftovers

You can put the leftover chicken in a baggy and store in the freezer until you are ready to make foods such as quick and easy quesadillas, fajitas, casseroles, or yummy chicken salad. The leftover vegetables will freeze up great in a baggy. I like to use the vegetables in a stir fry or a pasta dish.

Sunday lunch

was probably my favorite time growing up. I have so many memories of my mom starting a roast and vegetables in the electric skillet before we went to church. After church, our house was filled with the smells of the yummy roast and veggies. Mom always made a yummy dessert the day before. Sunday lunches were the best at our house!

More tips:

For this recipe, I use a whole grass-fed chicken. I purchase all of my chicken from Buck Creek Meats. Since I am not a gardener, I purchase my vegetables from the local Farmer’s Market.
