As we mentioned in our Cleanse Recap that Beth recruited her sister to do the cleanse with her, and after a couple days of eating pretty bland food Kate decided to research recipes that would work for the cleanse. Ironically enough Kate found a recipe on Tosca Reno‘s website which Teal had introduced Beth to her books this past year! If you don’t know who Tosca is, well, she is the author of the Eat-Clean Diet series as well as a model, spokesperson, media personality, motivational speaker/wellness consultant and Nutritional Therapy Practitioner. Even if her recipes aren’t ALL for you there is a lot in her books/cookbooks to look over, draw inspiration from and just experiment with on your own personal preferences.
Beth conveniently bought a crockpot for Kate for Christmas which allowed us to try out Tosca Reno’s Slow Cooker Mexican Chicken recipe from her website!
Top is all the ingredients in the crockpot and the bottom is the meal on top of brown rice ready to eat!

This meal is definitely a realistic clean eating alternative for you, your family or to have for multiple meals in one week! We made the entire recipe two times throughout the cleanse. The first time Kate was so gracious to share it with Beth & Brent and the second time it was made for two meals each for Kate & Beth. If you would like to give this recipe a try here is a direct link to the recipe. Let us know how you like it and if you experimented with it at all!
What is your favorite crockpot meal? Have you found a lot of healthy eating crockpot meals?
I am always looking for healthy slow cooker meals. I recently banned all cream of x soups in our food and it is so hard to find good slow cooker recipes that don’t use them. I’m definitely going to go snoop around that site.
That sounds like a good ban! If you find anywhere else we hope you blog about them so we can see and try them out!
That looks really yummy! My favorite crock pot recipe is chili. Pretty easy and so many different things you can add or leave out.
