    Either a side salad or whatever vegetable I have in the house at the time. Doesn't really matter, it's all good :bigsmile:

    I made this last night and it was amazing and one of the easiest meals I've ever made. It was a big hit with the family. :) I served it over brown rice with some low fat shredded cheese on top.
    I got it from www.skinnytaste.com

    Bump....

    It's getting to be crock pot season (Fall and soccer practice until 6:30 two nights a week and a swim meet every Wednesday until late!)

    Would love the sodium info on more of these recipes (some of them seem like they'd be high!).

    Thanks for posting these...I've been "afraid" to use my crock pot.
