If you’re feeling a little lazy and want an easy crockpot meal, you can do wrong with this recipe! I love Tex-mex (hands down my favorite type of food) so this week I wanted to try a spin on taquitos I love the Taquitos at Chevy’s, but ONE serving of the chicken taquitos is ~1000 calories and has 96g carbs trying lighter versions of your favorite foods at home is a great way to get the same - or an even better - flavor that won’t include all of the hidden calories and sugar
