We love going out to eat at Mexican restaurants, but a few chips and drinks later, I have completely ruined all my progress for the week! Of course we treat ourselves occasionally, this is a cheaper and much healthier alternative!!
Simple, easy, and healthy this is how I love dinners around our house. Throw all the ingredients together in the morning, turn the crockpot on, and wallah dinner is done!!

- 2 lbs. boneless chicken
- 1 can petite diced tomatoes (make sure there is no sugar added)

Directions:
- Pour half the can of tomatoes into the bottom and spread into an even layer. Top with half of the peppers and half of the onions. Sprinkle garlic in and then top with chicken.
