I love when I find easy and healthy dinner recipes! I found this Slow Cooker Chicken Taco recipe on HappyHourProjects.com and decided to give it a try last night. It was delish! And so super easy. Here’s how I made our Mexican feast!
1. Place 1 lb. boneless skinless chicken breasts in the slow cooker on low. I added a half cup of organic chicken broth, but you can place the chicken in the cooker without any liquid. Sprinkle a packet of taco seasoning over the chicken. I picked this organic southwest taco seasoning from our local natural foods store.
2. Cook on low for 4-6 hours until chicken breaks up easily. Warning: Your house will smell amazing!
3. Prepare the toppings for the taco bar. I chopped up lettuce, tomato, and avocado. I had Mexican blend shredded cheese, sour cream, and mild salsa in bowls.
4. I shredded up the chicken with a fork and the Mexican buffet was ready!
I bought the soft taco shells because the kids love to roll up mini burritos. But you can use hard shells too.
I added organic sweet corn as the side and the meal was complete. The hubby and kids loved it and gobbled it all up! There were no leftovers, so next time I might double the recipe. I can use the chicken for a taco salad the next day.
