I love the Chicken Green Chile Salad that they serve at Bajio. They have similar dishes at Cafe Rio and Costa Vida, and they are all amazing. I could eat this stuff every week and not get tired of it. The best part about it is the yummy slightly sweet chicken that they serve with it.I wanted to try it at home, so I did some online searching. All I could find were recipes for sweet pork or spicy chicken, nothing for sweet chicken. So I combined a few recipes and came up with this Bajio Style Crock Pot Chicken.
Oh. My. Goodness. I’m not sure how close it is to the actual Bajio chicken, but it turned out so amazingly delicious! Everyone in my family loved it. I served it with tortillas, green chile rice, lettuce, cheese, and homemade Cafe Rio dressing. (I totally forgot about the black beans, but we added them the next day with the leftovers and they were a great addition.) I ate mine as a salad, everyone else assembled theirs like a taco. My seven year old son actually ate 4 tacos! We enjoyed it so much that I am considering making it again next week.

Hi great recipes, on the best ever choc cake it asks for choc pudding is it instant or the one you cook? Doesn’t say thanks
