Sometimes the best tasting things in life just are not the most photogenic. Don’t judge a book by it’s cover, and don’t judge a delicious and people-pleasing meal by it’s photo.

This recipe is such a staple at our house. It can be made in a slow cooker or pressure cooker, so you can either spend 3 minutes in the morning prepping it, or 3 minutes 30 minutes before you want to eat. The hardest part of the whole recipe is literally opening the jar of salsa.

One of the best parts if that you can use frozen or fresh chicken. Straight from the freezer to your face hole in no time flat.

I love to serve ours over this quinoa and brown rice mix. We get it at Costco and eat it constantly! Sometimes serve it scooped up with tortilla chips.

And sometimes we just fold it inside a tortilla. And if you really want to get zany, roll it up in a tortilla and then throw that tortilla in a pan, for a melty, gooey, crunch wrap situation.

Give this simple, unassuming little recipe a try! I promise the sum is so much more than it’s parts, and it is so surprisingly and deceptively delicious.
