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!

Crockpot Roasted Chicken and Vegetables is a great kid-friendly recipe to make for lunch or supper. You can set it and forget it in the crockpot at lunch and it is ready for supper. Or if you want it for lunch, put it on in the morning and you will have something yummy, healthy, and delicious for lunch.
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!

HOW DO YOU MAKE THE CROCKPOT CHICKEN AND VEGETABLES?

2. Wash and clean the chicken. Place it on top of the vegetables and pour chicken broth over it. Then season the chicken.
3. **Cook on high for 4 to 5 hours in the crockpot. If you are cooking on low then cook for at least 8 hours.

One of my favorite meals is turkey and dressing. Last week I posted a Thankful message. What are you thankful for? I hope that you will plan to fix a Thanksgiving meal at your house this week. Talk about what you are thankful for!
Colossians 3:17 says, “Let the peace of God rule our hearts since as members of one body you were called to peace. Be thankful!”
