Sounds great!!Really good and it freezes great!
Chile Verde
4 pound chuck roast, or pork shoulder/butt (I used a pork shoulder)
1 green bell pepper, seeded and diced
1 small onion, diced
10 tomatillos, diced (peel off the outer wrapper, if they have one)
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 teaspoons cumin
2 teaspoons sage
1 Tablespoon oregano
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (or more, to taste)
1/4 cup chopped cilantro leaves
1 (4 ounce) can diced green chile (mine were mild, your choice)
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes (mine had green chilies as well)
The Directions.
1. I used a 6 quart rock pot. Trim any visible fat from the meat, and plop into your slow cooker stoneware.
2. I did this the lazy way and used my food processor.
3. Pulse bell pepper and onion until they are small chunks.
4. Add this to the pork.
5. If your tomatillos have the leafy-outer skin left on them, take the skin and stem off, wash carefully and to the same food processor, no need to clean it first! Pulse.
6. Add spices, and pulse again.
7. Pour the mixture into the crock pot, and add in the cans of the diced chiles and the tomatoes.
8. Stir a bit to get the spices down the sides of the meat.
9. Add chopped cilantro to the top.
Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours, high for 6, or until meat shreds easily with a fork.
Serve with rice, beans, tortillas, shredded cheese, and a dollop of sour cream.
Cilantro-Lime Rice
Simply make jasmine rice (or brown rice) according to the package directions. When it is finished, remove from the heat and let it sit for 10 minutes. Then, add the juice of ½ a lime per 1 cup of cooked rice, and chopped cilantro to your taste. I also add a little salt, and about 2 tsp of olive oil to help the rice separate.

EASY SOUP FOR PEOPLE WHO DON'T REALLY COOK
I make mine in my little Instant Pot. I am not sure how long you'd need to cook it in an Crock Pot. Instant pot--it's about an hour on pressure cook setting.
SAD SOUP---the name is more of a family joke. It tastes great. It's super easy to make. It's low-calorie. But it does not photograph well. It looks ...sad..lol. But it tastes great. They key is enough seasoning.- Kroger Frozen Chicken Breast Strips (unseasoned). It's a 22 oz bag. There are other brands of frozen chicken breast strips but most have weird seasoning. I like this brand. I use about 1/4 of the bag or about 4.5 ounces of chicken.
- 4 to 5 Medium Potatoes -Cut into big chunks.
- 1/2 cup of frozen corn kernels. I buy this frozen at Kroger for 1.29 a bag.
- 1/2 to 3/4 cup of frozen chopped onions/carrots and celery. It's about a dollar a bag at Kroger already mixed and chopped.
- 1 boullion cube --chicken flavor.
- Water.
- Lots of black pepper.
- Lots of onion powder
- Lots of garlic powder.
You will notice I didn't put amounts on the pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder. I use more than most people. I use a layer for each ingredient. So put in potatoes---add spices liberally. Add chicken--add spices liberally. Add all frozen veggies add black pepper, onion powder, garlic powder. This may be too much for you. I love it. You notice the only salt is in the bouillon cube. That is more than enough salt.
INSTANT POT
These ingredients keep for a long time in the freezer or in the pantry. Except for the potatoes, I can get about three instant pots of soup out of it. Each instant pot has 4.5 BIG servings of soup for about 175 calorie a bowl.
Once all the ingredients are in the instant pot, I put the water in to the full line. Close the pot. Put it on pressure cook for 65 minutes. The instant pot will then click over to warm. The longer it is on warm--the thicker the soup. At 65 minutes, it's good. But by night time, it's better.
If you want to spice it up, add tomato puree instead of water. If I use TS, I hit the black pepper a bit more, but I like it spicy.
The Instant Pot isn't very big. I like a lot of potatoes. But if you have a bigger pot, you could add more chicken instead. Crockpots cook more for families. My Instant Pot makes enough for me to have lunch and dinner for 2 days as a single person.
