Simple Dairy Free Dinner Casserole + regular version!

In yesterday's post I talked about a simple dinner I made that my family tried from Pinterest the other evening that was a total hit. I also discussed how I converted it to dairy free for my dairy free page. Here is yesterday's post with the recipe how to make your own homemade non-dairy dry Italian seasoning mix. There you will find how to make the non-dairy version Italian dry seasoning to use for the non dairy version. 

If you do not want to make the non dairy version, all you have to do is buy the original store bought dry Italian seasoning packet and normal butter.

Mexican Crockpot Dinner

I am so excited to share this recipe. I wanted to try something a little different and out of our comfort zone and surprisingly our daughters loved it. I found this delicious dinner and like always I had to tweak it a little to make it my own.

They are a couple ways you could serve this dinner. One way is, as regular cooked chicken breast or since it falls apart so nicely you can even add the chicken and beans into a wrap. We did both and the girls enjoyed the wraps.




Mexican Crockpot Chicken 
warning your home will smell great!

  • chicken breasts
  • chicken broth
  • black beans
  • chipolata seasoning (only a little if you do not want it spicy for kids)
  • taco or fajita seasoning
  • a little water if you feel the need. 
  1. Boil the chicken breasts. ( I do this so the crock pot time isn't as long if I run out of time also to make sure the chicken is cooked in the middle.)
  2. Add all the ingredients in the crockpot and turn on high for about 6-8 hours. (the chicken will start to fall apart when you touch it with a fork when its finished cooking.)
  3. It is that simple and non time consuming which I love.
