Mexican Chicken Haystacks

(not my photo)

This is one of the most simple recipes I've ever seen! Carol made it for Sunday dinner last week and it was a hit!



boneless skinless chicken breasts or tenders

2 cans diced stewed tomatoes with green chilies

1/2 - 1 cup brown sugar


Place the chicken in your crockpot, added tomatoes and brown sugar. Cook the chicken until it's done and then shred it with a fork. Serve over a bed of lettuce, rice, fritos, cheese and your traditional taco type toppings. MOST tasty! AND SO SIMPLE! Enjoy!

PEANUT BUTTER POPCORN




about 4 quarts of cooked popcorn

1/2 cup brown sugar

1/2 cup sugar

1/2 cup corn syrup

5 Tbsp. butter

1 tsp. salt (not needed if using microwave popcorn)

1 tsp. vanilla1 cup peanut butter

1-2 cups milk chocolate chips



Mix the syrup, sugars and butter in a sauce pan. Stir while the butter melts and bring to a boil. Boil exactly one minute. Remove from heat. Add peanut butter, salt and vanilla. Pour over popcorn and toss gently until mixed well. Once it's mixed will, toss in the chocolate chips and stir again. MMMM! ENJOY!
