Menu Plan January 24

This week, Angela of Angela’s Kitchen is hosting the Gluten Free Menu Swap [3]. I love that she choose slow-cooking as the theme. I often use the slow-cooker to make dinners easier on nights of after-school activities. I can get the dinner started in the slow-cooker when it’s convenient during the day, and then finish up when we get home.
[4]Almost every month, the most popular post on CeliacFamily.com is my recipe for slow-cooked Mexican Chicken [4]. It is so simple and easy, but so tasty and so versatile, too. I use the shredded chicken for tacos [4], rice bowls, enchiladas [5], enchilada soup [6], tostadas, pizza [7], quesadillas, Southwestern chicken salad [8], etc. And yet, I don’t actually have it on my menu this week.
Instead, I’ve got my slow-cooked pulled pork on the menu for Friday. It’s the same idea as the chicken recipe, but with different ingredients. It also makes a huge batch. (It’s hard to find a small pork shoulder!) But, that makes it great for parties or for freezing portions for future dinners. For more gluten-free meals in the slow-cooker, check out the roundup at Angela’s Kitchen [3].
I’m on hosting duties next week with nuts as the theme. So, come back next week and add your GF recipes (or find GF recipes) with nuts.
