Crock Pot Pepperoni Chicken

If you've been reading for a while you know I like chicken recipes. I also like my crock pot. This recipe was quick to prepare and tasted great. Marley loved it.

Chicken Breasts

Pepperoni

Diced onion

Salt

Garlic Powder

Italian Seasoning

Place chicken in crock pot.  Sprinkle on seasonings and onions.  Cover with pepperoni. 

Cover and cook on low 4-6 hours. 

Tortellini Chili

I loved that this recipe was easy to prepare and was pretty delicious. It had more of a soup consistency to it than chili, but it was still good.  AND it made me decide that next time I make my lasagna soup, instead of noodles I am going to use tortellini. YUM! 

1 lb. tortellini

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

1 cup chopped onion

2 tablespoons fresh minced garlic

1 lb. ground beef

32 ounces chicken broth

15 oz can rotel

1 can red beans

1 can black beans

2 tablespoons ground cumin

1/4 teaspoon garlic salt

1 1/2 tablespoons chili powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon pepper

Cook tortellini according to package directions.  Pour olive oil in a pan and add in onions and garlic. Saute for a few minutes.  Add ground beef and cook until browned. Drain beef and tortellini.  In a large pot mix meat, broth, tomatoes, beans, cumin, garlic salt, chili powder, salt and pepper. Stir in tortellini.  Heat for 10 minutes until hot. 

Crock Pot Chicken Quesadillas

I haven't made quesadillas in a while. I had one of those fancy quesadilla maker things, but someone decided to make a cookie in it and when that didn't work out so well we had to throw it away. I don't know why I never thought to make them on the griddle, but it worked out well.

1 small cans green chilis, diced

12 oz jar salsa 

1 teaspoon ground cumin 

2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken 

salt and pepper, to taste 

shredded cheese

Place chicken in crock pot. Place remaining ingredient (except cheese) on top. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours. 

Once done cooking shred chicken.  Place tortillas on griddle and top with cheese and chicken mix. Top with another tortilla and flip to cook to your liking. 

Pizza Roll Up

I've made something similar to this before here, but I used bread dough. I wanted to try this recipe because it used pizza crust instead. This one was much better and had less prep than the other recipe.

1 can pizza sauce

1 can pizza crust dough

cheese

pepperoni

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spread out dough and cover with sauce, pepperoni, and cheese. You could add any other toppings you wanted also.  Roll up dough. Tuck in the ends and pinch the seam together. 

Sprinkle some cheese on top.  Bake at 375 for 20 minutes or until dough is golden brown.
