Baked Chicken Taquitos
Mmm….baked taquitos. My kids love these and they are so easy to make. I make mine larger that your basic corn tortilla taquito so that they are a bit more filling. Top with your favorite condiments and toppings and they are a great week night dinner. They heat up great the next day too!

I like making shredded chicken in my pressure cooker because it cooks quickly and the flavors really soak in. I combine the chicken, seasoning, green chilies and chicken broth and heat until it reaches full pressure. Then I cook for 20 minutes, remove from heat and wait until the pressure releases.

If you don’t have a pressure cooker, place your chicken, seasoning, chilies, chicken stock and 1 cup of water into a pot and simmer until chicken is cooked through, about 30 minutes.

When chicken is cooked through, take out of pot and set aside. Reserve 1/2 c. of the broth.

Shred chicken and stir in 1/2 c. of the reserved broth.

Baked Chicken TaquitosWarm tortillas in the microwave for about 30 seconds. Fill each tortilla with chicken and cheese. Roll up tightly and place on a baking sheet, seam side down.

Brush with olive oil and sprinkle with lime juice and sea salt.

A delicious and light dinner, my favorite kind! Foster Farms has been producing locally grown poultry for 76 years. Simply Raised means no antibiotics have ever been given to the free-range chickens, that it is USDA Certified Organic, 100% vegetarian feed, and produced with no added sodium. I found mine in the refrigerated meat section as they are locally grown here in California, and are delivered fresh within 48 hours. I love that! Also, all Foster Farms fresh chicken products are American Humane Certified.

A lot of the produce that we eat is grown locally and we love supporting these farmers. We are big fans of the local U-pick farm and it is definitely a perk of living in California.

 

Thank you, Foster Farms, for sponsoring my cooking!

I don’t decorate for Valentine’s Day (still re I don’t decorate for Valentine’s Day (still recovering from Christmas 😂), but I always have holiday candy on hand! This year I filled the jar with petite sour hearts after hearing how amazing they are from @triedandtruemoms. They were right, we are all fans over here! Maybe more places will stock them now that they are in such demand. I ordered mine from @candynationusa (don’t waste your time looking on Amazon. They are charging twice as much for less candy).

Today we made our favorite green smoothie. It’s all about balance—-just kidding. We all know that’s a lie. I have like 10 healthy recipes on my site and 800 breads and desserts. 😂

Tip: when buying produce, buy extra to freeze. I buy an extra pineapple, an extra package of grapes, an extra bunch of bananas and an extra bag of spinach and freeze them for smoothies. I slice everything up and freeze it on baking sheets then bag it up. It makes it easy to grab a handful to toss into a blender. You can freeze entire bags of spinach too and add a handful to smoothies. I always blend my spinach and water first then add the rest of the fruit. No little spinach chunks in the smoothie that way. 🙌🏻

This cutie is working on a hat for her big brother This cutie is working on a hat for her big brother for Christmas. We love this little set of round knitting looms. A great project to work on during Christmas break. She’s making herself a pink one after Christmas. We bought several colors of bulky yarn at Walmart for $2.97 each. Each skein makes 1 hat.
