It’s been cold, windy and overcast outside lately and I have been craving warm, comforting meals.  It’s the end of fall, things are starting to look pretty brown and the trees are almost bare.  My husband thinks I am crazy, but I love this part of fall!  Sure it’s yucky outside, but it’s oh so cozy inside.  It’s the perfect time to cook, bake, and wrap yourself  in a nice warm blanket and curl up with a good book by the fire.  Since it’s getting darker outside earlier, my family tends to eat dinner a little earlier too.  On days that I can’t spend a lot of time in the kitchen, a warm, hearty dinner ready and waiting in the slow cooker for my family is the perfect way end to the day.

This Slow Cooker Spanish Chicken & Rice is a comfort meal that your family will love.  Boneless, Skinless Chicken Thighs are cooked all day with tomatoes, onions, peppers, garlic and spices to create moist chicken that blends perfectly with tender Spanish Rice.  Sometimes we even like to add black beans to this tasty dish the last half hour of cooking.   It’s a whole meal made all in one pot!  It’s a great dinner for a busy week night or even a relaxed meal on the weekends with friends.  Whenever you decide to serve this, I am sure it will become one of your favorite Slow Cooker meals too.  Enjoy!
