I don t know why we made this because I did not expect to like it. I waned something with Quinoa I guess. It was a surprise for both of us WE LOVED IT! I used canned chicken from Costco and just dumped everything in the slow cooker for 8 hours. I did put it on high for about the first 1/2 hour. It is just the two of us but we always make a full receipe and freeze the rest in 2-meal sized containers. We are having it for dinner avain tonight. Thanks for a delicious dinner.
Didn't take a picture because it didn't last long enough! Excellent and healthy. Everyone from six to sixty loved it... Only thing I did was use canellini beans instead of kidney beans because that was what I had...yum!
This recipe was so yummy! I used chicken that I pulled off of a rotisserie chicken and used cannellini beans instead of red kidney beans because I just prefer them. My hubby and I loved this my 4yo ate hers and the 2yo took 3 bites which is a miracle. Will definitely be making this again.
I made this and it is quite delicious! I did add 1/2tbs cumin to mine along with Mrs dash onion and herb seasoning bc I didn't have what they asked for. I also cooked it on low for 12 hours bc I did not precook my chicken. I added an extra serving of minced garlic. And I used Mrs dash table blend and original blend just sprinkled in. So with all those little bits of tweaking it came out very delicious!!
Needed to use up some sweet potatoes and loved most of the other ingredients. Didn't really want to use kidney beans but my family always laughs because I say I made the recipe exactly the way it was written except for... Thought I would give it a try with exact ingredients. We loved it. There are just the two of us so there is plenty for three meals. I did put the crock pot on high for two hours and then turned to low so it would be ready when we wanted to eat. I would probably add 1/2-1 tsp of red pepper flakes because we like it spicy. My grandchildren would eat it like it was prepared and we were expecting them. Definitely added to my list of tasty easy to prepare and crock pot meals.
I like all of these ingredients but this just didn't do it for me. I am really not sure why. Nothing was horrible about it but for some reason the flavors just didn't meld into what I was hoping for
I really liked the depth of flavor this dish. I substituted pumpkin for the tomatoes and red potatoes instead of sweet potatoes. Add 1/2 a tablespoon of ground organic turmeric to create a little more intense taste. Also, I decided to include 2 cups of fresh spinach that we had in the refrigerator. It is great finding a crockpot recipe with quinoa. Definitely preparing this hearty meal again!
I found this kind of running and bland the first time so I doubled the quinoa and spices PERFECT!
Tasty and super easy to make. I sub out a can of the kidney beans for garbanzo beans and added more garlic! Sweet potatoes added such a great flavor and texture.
