Creative Corner...Scrap Club

Here is the first layout from June scrap club. Our focus this month was on fathers. We had this cute little owl stamp that we wanted to incorporate into the layout so we chose the title "wise guy" to tie the owl and dads together!

wave flag...

...is what Little Bit said whenever she saw one of those American flags she is holding in the picture. They were being passed out at the 4th of July parade we went to. Somehow she ended up getting her hands on 3 of them. She did put them down long enough to pick up some candy being thrown out!

Crock Pot Chicken Fajitas

I recently attended a Pampered Chef show and one of the dishes the consultant made was Chicken Fajitas. She made it in the covered baker but I don't have one so I decided to try the crock pot instead. I am not a huge fan of peppers but how all the flavors combine while cooking is just yummo!

Ingredients:
2-3 chicken breasts (i used frozen ones)
1 each of red, green & yellow peppers, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
3 gloves garlic, pressed
1 packet taco seasoning
1 cup chicken broth

Directions:
Add all ingredients to crock pot and cook on low for 6-8 hours....depending on your crock pot. Once cooked I just used a fork and shredded up the chicken. We ate ours with flour tortillas, shredded cheese, tomatoes and sour cream.

Enjoy!
