Slow Cooker Cilantro Lime Chicken
143
Here is another great slow cooker freezer meal. It isn’t too far off from my slow cooker chicken tacos from the 40 meals in 4 hours slow cooker post. This recipe is great because if you are looking for a healthier option you can skip the tortillas, since there is the incorporation of corn as a grain. We love serving this over avocados with a bit of cheese and a very small dollop of sour cream.
