Equipment

Ingredients

  • 2 - 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 jar salsa - your favorite brand and heat level
  • 1 1.25 oz packet taco seasoning

Instructions

  • Spray the inside of the crock pot with non-stick cooking spray.
  • Place the chicken breasts in the crock pot.
  • Sprinkle the chicken breasts with the taco seasoning.
  • Pour the entire bottle of salsa on top.
  • Cook on high 4 hours or low 6 hours.
  • Shred with two forks when chicken is done. 

Notes

  • Serve over fresh cooked rice or quinoa.
  • You could add black beans and corn to the top to create a burrito bowl. 
  • My favorite way is to serve it over a bowl full of crunchy lettuce leaves. 
  • Add a few crushed tortilla chips to the top for added crunch.
