Happy Cinco De Mayo

Hello Friends! In honor of Cinco De Mayo I am sharing my recipe for Chicken Tacos. This is one of the easiest things you can make and it's very affordable.


Crock Pot Chicken Tacos


Frozen Chicken Breasts 3-4 depending on the size
1 can black beans rinsed
1 can kernel corn (frozen works too)
1 package taco seasoning
1 cup salsa



Add everything to the Crock Pot. Cook on Low for about 8 hours.



Remove the cooked chicken breasts and shred.


Add chicken back to the liquid and let cook on low for another 30 mins to 1 hour.



Build your taco. (Thank you to Michelle who let me photograph her lunch!) This mix also makes excellent taco salads. I recommend washing these tacos down with a nice margarita. Enjoy!

This looks Fun!

Hello everyone! Well, I guess all four of you that will actually visit my blog. Welcome to Newlywed Adventures. Who says you have to wait to have kids to start a blog?

I got the idea to start blogging after a conversation with my Grandma. We were discussing recipes and what kinds of meals work for our 2 person household. Shortly after that conversation I realized that I am constantly posting what is for dinner on Facebook as well as what project I'm working on. Shortly after those posts come questions for the recipes or pictures of the project. Just like in my corporate job, I decided to try and simplify the number of steps by just posting those recipes or projects at the onset.

Another purpose of this blog is to share links that i love or feel are important. I posted on Facebook a link to the Etsy site of a friend who is adopting. What a great cause to support! She also happens to be selling the cutest knitted accessories.  For those of you who missed it: http://www.etsy.com/shop/apieceacake.

Please let me know if you have any suggestions or if there is anything you would like to hear about!

Thanks for checking out my new Blog!
