Slow Cooker Chicken Salsa Tacos...updated 4/28/2014

     Everybody loves a simple crock pot meal!  Everybody also loves tacos (or they should!).  This recipe is so simple and can be updated and altered for a variety of different meals.  The concept is to cook chicken breast in the crock pot with whatever sauce and/or seasoning.  That's it!  Below is the chicken salsa taco recipe.  Like I said, you can substitute different sauces and flavors.

Chicken Salsa Tacos
Ingredients:

2-3 chicken breasts
1 tablespoon taco seasoning
1 jar of salsa...I prefer Tostitos Mild
Taco sized tortillas
Taco toppings....sour cream, cheese, olives, corn, black beans, etc.  I usually just use whatever is in the pantry.

Directions:
Season chicken with taco seasoning.  Lay the breasts flat in your crock pot.  Pour salsa over the top.  Move chicken around so that the sauce gets around and under all of the meat.  Cook on low for 4-6 hours.  Once cooking in finished, shred chicken and stir around in the salsa.  Fill a tortilla or simply serve over yellow rice.  Always yummy!

     I use the same cooking technique for barbecue chicken.  Substitute mesquite barbecue seasoning for the taco seasoning and your favorite barbecue sauce for the salsa.  Pile on a Hawaiian roll or hamburger bun.  Viola!

**BONUS** Make chicken taco bowls by propping flour tortillas onto the back side of a muffin tin.  Bake until golden brown and crispy.  This will take around 10-15 minutes.  So yummy and fun!!!
