CROCK POT SALSA VERDE CHICKEN

by JesschiotellisLeave a Comment on CROCK POT SALSA VERDE CHICKEN

Simple, healthy, and delicious sums up this meal! I’m all about meals that take little preparation, without giving up on taste. This crockpot chicken is definitely going to be on rotation, and the whole family loves it!

What you need:

• 4 boneless chicken breasts

• 16 oz. Jar of salsa verde

• Salt, pepper, and cumin

• 2 bags of frozen cauliflower rice

• 2 limes

• 2 Avocados

What you do:

• Place chicken breasts in crockpot, and cover with salsa. Add a dash of salt, pepper, and cumin, and cook on low for 7 hours.

• I place cauliflower in microwaveable safe dish for 6 minutes.

• I then make a side of guacamole- mash avocado in bowl with salt, pepper, lime juice, and cumin.

• Once chicken is done I shred it in the crockpot, and serve it over the cauliflower rice with all the delicious juice, and add some more lime juice over the chicken. I like to mix a little guacamole in for some extra added flavor!

Enjoy

by JesschiotellisLeave a Comment on GREENER CLEANER MAKEUP ROUTINE💄

Switched up my skincare routine a bit, and my skin has never felt so good! I’m not an expert, but I highly recommend these products! I have pretty normal skin, which has its flare ups here and there.

1. I’ve tried so many different facial cleansers, and this one is by far my favorite. My skin has never been so clear! I am obsessed.

2. An all natural toner that is alcohol-free, and greatly helps to reduce irritation. Yes please!

3. This face cream is perfect for my skin. I have pretty normal skin and prefer a cream that goes on lightly, but does it’s job.

4. I have been using this mineral powder foundation for a couple of weeks now, and am very pleased. It’s lightweight, but is buildable for great coverage. It feels like I’m not wearing any foundation at all!

5. Love this blush! It adds just the right amount of glowing color, and smells amazing!

6. I use this bronzer/highlighter above my cheekbones to add some shimmer! This palette is also great for contouring.

7. This eyeliner is a great choice if you looking for something more natural. It’s self sharpening and glides on smoothly.

8. Hands down the best lip balm I’ve ever owned! Its an all-natural lanolin balm, that can be used on not just your lips, but also your cuticles, heels, cheeks, nasal passages, etc.

9. I use this argan oil after washing my face at night. It does a great job at moisturizing and keeping your skin soft.

10. You need this hand lotion in your life! But seriously you won’t be disappointed.

MY CURRENT BEAUTY FAVES 💋

by JesschiotellisLeave a Comment on MY CURRENT BEAUTY FAVES 💋

My everyday beauty regime is pretty simple, especially in the summer. I’ve put together some products that I love, and use regularly.

1. This hair lotion is awesome! I have thick, wavy hair which tends to get frizzy, especially during the more humid months. I use this before I blow dry, and it keeps my hair frizz free, and smelling wonderful.

2. Hands down this brush is the best! I’ve gone through so many blow drying brushes, it’s not even funny. But this one has lasted me the longest, and does a great job at helping to straighten my locks.

3. If your looking for a toner that truly works and doesn’t dry out your skin, this is the one. I’ve noticed such a difference in my complexion, and have been using it for a little over a year now!

4. The holy grail of lip balms for me! It keeps my lips moisturized throughout the day, and adds a pretty little shimmer to them as well.

5. Out of all the concealers I’ve used, this is my favorite and it is under $6!

6. This body lotion will last you a long time, and is currently on sale.

7. I love how this bronzer gives a subtle, natural glow.

8. I use this as my everyday mascara. It’s carbon black, so it really makes your eyelashes pop, and is priced under $6!

9. Eyelash primer definitely makes a difference for me. I feel it makes my eyelashes appear thicker, and longer!

10. Cannot say enough about this B.B. cream. It’s lightweight, has spf in it, and helps blur imperfections. I highly recommend it!
