For the chicken:
For the nachos, take your pick from the following:
Directions:
1. The night before or at least 4 hours before you want to make your nachos, place breasts in crockpot with seasoning. Cook on high for 4 hours or on low for 6. Then remove breasts from crockpot. Once slightly cooled, shred chicken breasts using two forks. Set aside.
2. When you are ready to prepare your nachos, preheat oven to 400. Then line a sheet pan with foil. Or prepare on an oven safe dish like I did in which I did not put foil since I was serving off of this dish. If there is foil on your dish, who cares! Less mess for you.
3. Spray pan or dish with a little nonstick spray. Then arrange chips. Layer with cheese, chicken and optional beans. Bake for 6-8 minutes until cheese is melted.
4. Then remove from oven and start adding your toppings. We love fresh cilantro, avocado, pickled onions, jalapeno, salsa and Greek yogurt. You can seriously whatever add whatever you want!

Turkey Sliders with Sauteed Peppers and Remoulade
Slider & Pepper Ingredients:
Remoulade Ingredients:
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine turkey, green onions, garlic, dried thyme, cayenne, salt and pepper. Mix well and form into 8 patties. Sprinkle the outsides of the patties with your paprika. The paprika has a great flavor and helps the patties get a beautiful golden color.
4. In a skillet heat olive oil medium-low heat. Add sweet peppers and onion; cook about 10 minutes or until very soft and tender. Remove from skillet; keep warm.
5. On a sheet pan, lay your foil. We like to spray with Trader Joe’s coconut cooking spray. Place the sliders on the sheet pan. Cook for 30 minutes, flipping at the 15-minute point.
6. While the patties are cooking, assemble the remoulade sauce. Combine yogurt, mustard, olive oil, lemon juice, relish, capers, fresh parsley and Tabasco (optional), chill remoulade until ready to serve.
7. Toast your multigrain buns, then apply remoulade sauce on both sides of your bun, then place pattie on top and top with your sautéed peppers. Serve with more remoulade or spicy ketchup for dipping.
