We are in the midst of a crazy busy sports season. We have 6 games this week alone! Game admission adds up fast. If we can eat before a game and minimize concession stuff, that helps with the budget!
I try my best to have something prepared for dinner before we leave for a game so at least my husband, me and our youngest son can run out the door having eaten something. These slow cooker chicken tacos are easy to throw in the crock early in the day and bundle in aluminum foil for a mess-free car ride.
