Chicken and Black Bean Enchiladas

Chicken and Black Bean Enchiladas feature shredded, slow-cooker chicken, black beans, corn and bell peppers topped with a fresh, flavorful tomato sauce, melted cheese and fresh tomatoes and avocado for a meal everyone will love! With baby #2 due in less than two months, I am fully nesting and not embarrassed to admit it! I am ticking things off my to-do list that are "must-dos" before baby. I am cleaning crazy things and if I am not able to, I ask my husband to do it. I'm stocking up on toilet paper, millions cans of beans, peanut butter and other things as if I am going to never be able to go to the grocery store again. Another part of my nesting is filling up my freezer with as much food as I can. We are not the biggest casserole lovers so I had to rack my brain with some things that I can make ahead of time, freeze, eat when the baby arrives and actually enjoy. Chicken enchiladas are definitely one of those things! I tripled this recipe to make a ton of enchiladas...

1. Commercial Silk It is currently winter in Michigan which means that it is super cold out, always. I love having fresh flowers in the house for a burst of cheeriness but they die so fast. I was recently contacted by Commerical Silk which sells many different faux plants, flower arrangements, topiaries, hedges and more. I chose this beautiful arrangement and am very happy with it.

Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana Oatmeal

Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana Oatmeal is ready in 5 minutes, packed full of flavor for a nutritious breakfast that tastes like dessert. Filled with oats, omega-3 rich flax and chia seeds, cocoa powder, peanut butter and bananas. I love oatmeal so much and eat it 4 days per week. I typically stick with the same blend: oats, peanut butter powder, ground flax and chia seeds. I add water to a mason jar with 1/2 cup of the oatmeal mixture the night before and stick it in the fridge. The next morning, I heat it in the microwave for 1 1/2 minutes and top with either peanut butter, almond butter or cashew butter.

1. Terra's Kitchen I love trying out different meal services and am a big fan of Terra's Kitchen. You get all of the ingredients for different meals sent right to your home and they are quite easy to make. What I like about them that is different from other meal delivery services is that they have quite a large menu that you can choose from. Some companies have only 4-6 meals to choose from and Terra's Kitchen lets you choose from a lot more.
