SLOW COOKER SHREDDED CHICKEN TACOS
I needed a dinner entree I could make for a pretty large party that wouldn't break the bank and wouldn't take me all day to cook. So, I decided tacos would do the trick! I threw together some ingredients for shredded chicken tacos, and it turned out great. I served them on corn tortillas, with diced white onion, cilantro, and freshly quartered limes for a more "authentic" feel, but the meat is great for nachos or other dishes as well.

EASY SLOW COOKER CHICKEN TACOS
So I heard of people making salsa chicken and I thought I would give it a try but add a few of my own twists to it. My whole family, even the 2-year-old, loved the tacos and we ate the leftovers at our very next meal. After the mixture is cooked, fill flour tortillas with it (hard shells are great, too), add shredded Cheddar cheese on the top, and shredded lettuce.
