You can use it just as it is right from the slow cooker served over rice, or take your Taco Tuesday from Drab to Fab and serve the shredded mixture in tortillas with cheese and all of your favorite taco fixins! Yum! I also sometimes will add in a can of black beans or corn. You can also add in a block of cream cheese 30 minutes before you turn off the slow cooker and let in melt into the mixture. Ummm, yes, please! It is ridiculous! Let’s get to the recipe, right? Oh and did I mention the base of this recipe has 2 ingredients? Yep, SUPER easy!

INGREDIENTS:

3-4 Frozen Chicken Breasts

1 16-oz Jar of your Favorite Salsa

DIRECTIONS:

Place the frozen chicken breasts and salsa inside the Slow Cooker. Turn on Low Temperature for 6-8 hours.

Shred the mixture and enjoy just as is over rice or serve in your favorite tortillas as tacos. Either way, you will love this one and make it again and again!

Quick and Easy Cuban Pork Sliders Made with Smithfield Pork #RealFlavorRealFast

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Smithfield® Marinated Fresh Pork. The opinions and text are all mine. #RealFlavorRealFast

I can hardly believe that it is almost time for school to begin! I am not quite sure where the summer has gone, but alas, it is once again time to get back into a routine of prepping, planning and preparing easy weeknight dinners.

Since both of my boys will be in school full-time this year and they are involved in many extracurricular activities, it is especially important to me that I have easy and delicious meals on the table that require little effort but that provide real flavor, real fast. Easy and delicious meals will ensure that we have just a few more minutes in our day to enjoy as a family all while going about the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

One of my favorite items to prepare for quick and delicious dinners are Smithfield Marinated Fresh Pork products purchased right in the fresh meat section at my local Safeway store. Smithfield Marinated Fresh Pork allows me to get dinner on the table in 30 minutes or less any night of the week. These products are also super versatile as they can be grilled, roasted, sautéed or slow cooked. In addition, they are already marinated which means that they are packed full of scrumptious flavor.

My Safeway store had a wide variety of Smithfield Marinated Fresh Pork products, so it was hard for me to decide on just one! When I saw the Smithfield Roasted Garlic and Herb Pork Loin Filet, I knew right away that it was the one! This product is dry rubbed and marinated with garlic, onion powder, spices and natural smoke. Smithfield delivers real flavor, real fast right to my table any night of the week.

Sliders and sandwiches are always a fun and easy dinner and one that my boys will devour any day of the week. With the Smithfield Roasted Garlic and Herb Pork Loin Filet, I was able to create a delicious Cuban pork slider that reminded us of our vacation last summer in South Florida.

The Cuban Pork Slider created with Smithfield Roasted Garlic and Herb Pork Loin Filet was definitely a winner at my house! I first cooked the Smithfield pork in the slow cooker, which made it so tender and delicious! Using the slow cooker with the already marinated Smithfield pork saves you even more time in the kitchen, and you have a delicious meal on the table in just minutes!

Smithfield Roasted Garlic and Herb Pork Loin Filet Cuban Pork Sliders

Ingredients:

Smithfield Roasted Garlic and Herb Pork Loin Filet

12 slider buns

12 small pieces of deli ham

12 small pieces of Swiss cheese

12 pickles

Mustard

Directions:

Place the Smithfield Pork Loin Filet in a slow cooker for 4-6 hours on low. You will want to ensure that the meat is cooked through to 145 degrees Fahrenheit. Slow cooking the Smithfield Roasted Garlic and Herb Pork Loin Filet allows the flavors to really distribute throughout the meat and it becomes so tender and juicy!

Remove the pork from the slow cooker and let it rest on a cutting board while you set out the other items for the sliders. Slice the pork into medium sized medallions to place on the sliders.

Place a couple of pork medallions onto a slider bun and assemble the rest of the slider with ham, Swiss cheese, pickles and mustard. Voila! You have the perfect Cuban Pork Sliders! This quick and easy dish is sure to be one of your new family favorites and one that you will reach for again and again!

When you use Smithfield Marinated Fresh Pork products, there is no need for marinades or rubs, as the meat is already pre-seasoned. This ensures that you receive real flavor, real fast and that you have a meal on the table the entire family will love!

The school year is quickly approaching and I can hardly believe that it is time for the kiddos to head back to school! My boys start this Wednesday and I am finishing up last-minute details.

With the kids back in school I know that many of us will be searching for both easy and quick meals to get on the table without spending a lot of time in the kitchen. One of the ways that you can prepare a delicious meal that your entire family will love is to utilize your Slow Cooker. I use mine at least 2 times a week and it really is a life-saver. I thought that it would be fun to start a series here on the blog called “Saving Your Sanity With Your Slow Cooker”. The recipes that I will be sharing are ones that I prepare for my family on a regular basis so they have been tested and approved! You can my post of 10 Slow Cooker Pantry Essential items that I like to keep on hand HERE.

The first recipe that I will be sharing in the series is for Slow Cooker Meatball Subs. This recipe is not only great for a quick dinner, but also perfect for Football season when you are looking to feed a crowd. I like to stock my freezer up on Frozen Meatballs when they go on sale BOGO so that I can always have the ingredients for this recipe on-hand.

1 jar of your favorite Pasta Sauce

Grated Parmesan Cheese for Topping

Directions:

Place the Meatballs and jar of pasta sauce in your slow cooker. Cook on Low for around 4 hours. Serve on Hoagie Rolls and sprinkle the top with Parmesan Cheese. I like to serve with Broccoli or a Salad.

Three Ingredient Slow Cooker Potato Soup

(All posts may contain affiliate links or sponsored content. Please see my disclosure policy)

I have been making this recipe for quite some time now and thought that it was time to share it with you all! I previously used to make my Slow Cooker Potato Soup with frozen hash-browns and one day when I was in the grocery store I saw that the refrigerated Simply Potatoes hash-browns were on sale Buy One Get One Free so I decided to give them a try instead. I actually love them better than the frozen ones. This recipe cannot be any easier. I am all about simplifying my life this year and this recipe is just that! Even though it is simple, it is crazy delicious! And, you can add whatever toppings that your family loves to make it even more delicious!

INGREDIENTS:

2 bags of Simply Potatoes Diced Potatoes With Onions (I like the ones with onions as it gives the soup nice flavor) You can also use the frozen Ore Ida brand. I have also used the shredded hash-browns before and they work just as well. Whatever you prefer is fine.

1 Large Carton of Chicken Broth (you may need more if it seems like the potatoes are cooking down)

1 Block of Cream Cheese

DIRECTIONS:

Place the 2 bags of Hash-browns and carton of chicken broth in the slow cooker and place on low for 6 hours.

Towards the end of the cooking process cut up the block of cream cheese into small chunks and place in the slow cooker. Let melt into the potato mixture for another 30 minutes or so. If the mixture seems to thick you can add more chicken broth.

Top soup with your favorite toppings like bacon, cheese, green onions, etc… and serve.

Enjoy! This is one of our favorites!
