Motivational Quote - For want of a nail, the shoe was lost. For want of a shoe, the horse was lost. For want of a horse, the battle was lost.
SparkPeople Translation
Everything you do makes a difference. Even if you’re not on the front lines leading the effort, you have a contribution to make. Without your contribution, no matter how small, so many other things would never happen. The world needs what you have to offer. You have no idea how the simplest of your everyday actions can effect people you’ve never even met. Chances are, you’ll never know. But if you’re looking for a purpose to work toward, all you need is the desire and the right perspective. Define yourself as your task, and that’s all you’ll ever be. Define yourself and your tasks as your contribution, and suddenly you’re a very important part of a bigger picture. The biggest pictures are the ones where there’s room for everyone to be seen.

Chef Meg's (Leftover) Chicken Tostada
Submitted By: CHEF_MEG

Tostada means toasted in Spanish, and in this simple recipe, Chef Meg takes her Slow Cooker Provencal Chicken and Beans leftovers and makes a crunchy, crispy, chewy, cheesy tostada for a quick weeknight supper.

Some grocery stores carry tostadas, which are slightly drier and crispier than tortillas. If you can't find them, use corn tortillas--or your favorite kind of wrap. Full Recipe
