Pinterest-ing Wednesday!

I'm not really sure where or when my obsession with keys really started...

I just love the way they look!

So much so, I asked for and got the Tiffany Fleur De Lis Key Pendant as a gift and even added a very large key to my gallery wall.

And you know Pinterest doesn't help the obsession :)

These are some of my favorite key pictures I've found!

Enjoy!

Slow Cooker Buffalo Chicken Wraps

I love pinning and trying new recipes from Pinterest. Especially those easy crockpot ones!

I pinned these buffalo chicken wraps a long time ago and finally got around to making them...

Source: bettycrocker.com via Savanah on Pinterest

Here's the recipe:

(taken from here)

Ingredients:

2 lbs boneless skinless chicken thighs (I used breasts)

1/2 tsp salt

3/4 cup buffalo wing sauce

3/4 cup ranch dressing

tortillas

shredded lettuce

Directions:

~In 1 1/2-quart slow cooker, place chicken; sprinkle with salt (I covered the chicken with chicken broth to cook it... I find it weird that they said just to cook with no liquid...)

~Cover; cook 6 to 7 hours (if slow cooker has heat settings, use Low).

~With slotted spoon, remove chicken from slow cooker and place on cutting board; discard liquid in slow cooker. In slow cooker, mix buffalo wing sauce and 1/4 cup of the ranch dressing. With 2 forks, shred chicken. Return chicken to slow cooker; stir gently to mix with sauce.

~To serve, spread each tortilla with 1 tablespoon remaining ranch dressing; top each with about 1/2 cup chicken mixture and about 1/3 cup lettuce. Roll up tortilla; secure with toothpicks.

And this my friends, is my final product!

These were REALLY good! So good, we've made them several times because we liked them so much!

If you're looking for easy, good recipes like me, you should try this one!! :-P
