Doritos chips is a favorite with the kids (and adults) in my house! I was super excited to make this simple slow cooker Doritos chicken enchilada casserole recipe and it made the kids happy! It's like a loaded chicken enchilada, without the extra steps (or spicy heat)! Perfection.

Thisย Slow Cooker Chicken Enchilada Doritos Casserole is probably one of the easiest recipes you'll find on my site. I adapted this recipe with permission from Sarah over at SideTrackedSarah. She has some amazing and extensive slow cooker recipes, go check her out, after you make this recipe!

It's filled with shredded chicken, enchilada sauce, lots of cheese, corn, black beans, black olives, and of course crushed Doritos!

Everything is pretty much dump and forget, but I urge you to make sure you add in sofrito, you can use my homemade recipe here or buy the frozen Goya brand at your local supermarket, I swear it elevates the flavor! I also added a little bit of Adobo and garlic powder to give it more oomph. (I had to add in my Boricua roots to this yummy dish.)

When you shred the chicken, that's when I urge you to taste it and add more salt/pepper if needed. Thisย Slow Cooker Chicken Enchilada Doritos Casserole is perfect for the summer months when you don't want to turn on the stove or oven and want something filling and tasty to fill the ravenous kids after swimming all day.

When I moved away from homeโ€”and the community that kept the culture aliveโ€”I felt like something was missing.

I found my way home back through food.

If youโ€™ve ever felt that same longing for home, pull up a chair. Stay while.

Letโ€™s remember our roots, teach our kids our traditions, and keep these recipes going for the next generation.
