CROCK POT MEXICAN CHICKEN CHILI

Steps:

• Place chicken breasts in bottom of crock pot.
• Top with Seasoning Mix, Diced Tomatoes, Kidney Beans, Garbanzo beans and Corn.
• Slice butter and arrange on top of mixture. Sprinkle salt on top.
• Cook on High 6 hours.
• When done, use two forks and shred the chicken in the crock pot.
• While your shredding, put on a pot of white rice. I usually cook 2 cups of rice to go with mixture. Or, you can serve in warm tortillas, eat like a soup or use tortilla "scoop" chips to eat.
• Put rice in bowl and serve chicken mixture on top of the rice. Optional and VERY YUMMY toppings would be chopped white onion, sour cream, crumbled tortilla chips and then a nice squeeze of fresh lime juice. Fantastic when served with everything!
• Enjoy!

CROCK POT CHILI CON CARNE WITH BEANS

Steps:

• Fry the bacon until it starts to brown, then put it into the crock pot.
• In the bacon drippings, brown the ground beef.
• Put the ground beef, beans, crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, onions, chili powder (In Southern California we have a great variety available, but Gebhardt's would work), and the cayenne into the crock pot with the beef broth.
• Cut the stems off the fresh jalapenos and cut them in two or three chunks.
• place the peppers along with the garlic and whole fresh tomatoes into a food processor and puree the three ingredients.
• Put this into the crock pot, stir to mix and let it all cook for 10-12 hours on low or 5-6 hours on high.
• By making a puree out to of the peppers and garlic, you get a more evenly dispersed blend.
• I used the tomatoes to give some moisture to the puree.
• Serrano chilies are three times hotter than jalapenos so don't let their small size fool you.
